Honeycomb Foxtrot Takeoff Kit?

Postby deeknow » Sat Aug 29, 2026 1:59 pm

My beloved Thrustmaster yoke is finally giving up the ghost and considering grabbing this yoke + throttle combo from Honeycomb, not many reviews about but I like the features so far, anyone know/heard any feedback about either? Is apparently P3D compatible w a wee tool provided by them to manage button mapping for some of the knobs...

DK I don't suppose this would be of any use, if I can find where I carefully packed it away?

Aw thanks Charl, cheers for the offer mate :cheers:

I really like the dedicated rotary knobs on this Honeycomb beasty for radios, nav etc and the general layout slightly more airliner oriented than millitary. If can find a few more reviews will pull the trigger

Dean, I replaced my failing CH throttle quad a few years ago with the Honeycomb one and I am very happy with it. A good solid piece of kit. Honeycomb stuff is good, in my less-than-humble opinion.
