Description

What’s most important and something you and I would expect, is that all the AP related switches and levers (remember, only for a 4 engine jet aircraft) are correctly assigned. There’s an additional row of switches in front of the levers. These switches are not yet assigned to anything, so you’re free to use them for your own. Of course, you’re always free to change other already assigned switches, or knobs to what you prefer, but basically it should be left assigned to the most logical switch, knob or lever. When you select for example the commercial four engine configuration, then all levers belonging to this are correctly assigned. Fixed bug with wrong indexing for "sim/flightmodel2/gear/deploy_ratio" in default Bravo throttle profile (gear LEDs) The Throttle Quadrant also has a trim wheel, allowing you to control the trim on your elevator. Mount your Saitek hardware on top of the Throttle The reverse thrust function is outstanding. Essentially, each axis has independent dual-function reverse thrust, so there is an option for going below idle into the reverse thrust/ beta range like on turboprops. Alternatively, with the Commercial handles the levers are lifted to engage reverse thrust similarly to what you would do on a Boeing jet.

I only have one Logitech radio panel and that seems to work. If you want the G1000 like functionality (select between com1/2 and tune with a single knob), I haven’t been able to work that out with the custom driver provided by AAO. I can do that with the bravo rotaries though. Ok, that’s great news, but what is even better is the smooth way you can use the controls on the Bravo and see the 737NG responding. And yes, the throttle levers move so fluently from idle to TO. Keep in mind, when you set the FLAPS to 5, 10, 15 or any other position, the slots you have in the simulated X-Plane 737NG, you don’t have these on the Bravo FLAP scale. The same is also applicable for the SPEEDBRAKE handle. And what I miss with both handles is a marking on it. A mark that identifies the current position.As I started with my first Honeycomb review a while ago, the following statement stays the same; who hasn’t used or still using Saitek, Logitech, Thrustmaster, CH, VKB Gladiator hardware in combination with flight simulators like X-Plane, FlightGear, Steam FSX, P3D and the latest release Microsoft FS2020? I am going down the path of FSUIPC to manage the rotary selectors on the Alpha and Bravo so that their positions control the function of the POV hat and various pushbuttons. My goal is enabling every important control from the alpha and bravo while in VR. I expect a lot of trial and error in coming up with a good functional set of mappings, so I am using a Python module I wrote to easily regenerate the appropriate button programming in the FSUIPC7.ini, based on whatever ideas I want to try out. Here’s a thread Python-based generation of FSUIPC ini file content - User Contributions - The simFlight Network Forums in the FSUIPC forum focused on the Python module, but the gen_ini.py example provided is the gist of what I am thinking. Perhaps this will be modified by kavster as soon as he has time. But the good news is that the Auto Pilot left-hand and right hand selectors on the Bravo are copying information to the ToLiss Auto Flight FCU (Flight Control Unit). That said, when I enter a speed, altitude or heading, it can be seen on the FCU. You and I need to keep in mind that for example the Zibo 738 and other add-on aircraft aircraft have complex Auto Flight systems. With these Auto Flight systems and the belonging MCP or FCU, it’s not always possible to cover every caution light on the Bravo or the Bravo Auto Pilot section. Summary

It is correct that X-Plane 11 uses for specific hardware only 1 joy file. However, with this basic joy file you can create several user profiles and assign them to different aircraft. I’ll give you an example about this in the coming paragraphs. The problem is that the Bravo Throttle Quadrant has many switches, levers, knobs of which most can be configured within X-Plane but when it comes to the annunciator lights, the integral AP lights, the GEAR lights, for hose you need the Aerosoft AFC_Bridge configurator.Out of the box, there were a few minor software issues, and a few things that needed to be configured that were not documented in the included literature. This led to multiple uncontrollable crashes initially, and made me wonder if the unit was defective. (It wasn’t, it just needed to be properly configured) I parked my twin engine Beechcraft Baron 58 at the GA apron KFAT (Fresno Yosemite International Airport), and from that spot I taxi to the runway, make the takeoff, climb out to 6000 feet, level of for a short cruise. Ho ho, hold on. How does the Bravo equipment feels so far? Yes, yes, I’m aware of that. Profiles are loaded on a 10 second delay after aircraft change to allow for correct initialization of all local variables You can buy the Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant at the Aerosoft store, and soon also via X-Plane.Org. The Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant cost approximately 249,99 Euros including VAT.
