Mark. I was delightfully surprised to get a phonecall on Saturday, telling me that my Bravo quadrant "is ready for pickup" I have been watching your videos to help me get MSFS2020 going, but your instructions on how to set up the Bravo, were fantastic and they have to be an "absolute must" - all of them- for anybody starting with that device. Thank you very much!
Mark, may I thankyou very, very much for this and your other instructional videos. I am a retired Paramedic (Back injury) and having to retire on ill health grounds from the job I loved put me into a low mood commonly known as reactive depression. I always loved ANYTHING aviation related. I discovered Building and repairing PC's/Laptops but although I have built some cutting edge gaming machines for family and friends I have to confess to not being as proficient in running these machines especially Key Mapping! A topic i had previously loathed! I had pre-ordered the Alpha and Bravo products from Honeycomb and bought a second hand, but immaculate Saitek Rudder pedals setup. All was good, All was ready for MSFS2020 Until I encountered key mapping. Especially the absence of Throttle 2 in the default settings. At one stage I was on verge of returning the Bravo TQ's as I was convinced I must have had a faulty unit. Until I saw your channel. You have a engaging and refreshingly easy to follow Teaching style, Were you a teacher in a past life? Anyway After following your instructions to the letter I have a fully configured Honeycomb, 'Home flight sim' set up fully configured! ( I even got the hang of how to keymap properly, so much so my saitek rudder pedals are fully configured too (Yes I know there's not much to map with them but they were no longer a slightly scary proposition, as they were previously! To reiterate Thank you so much for setting on the right path, or should that read 'Taxiway' ! to both 'Sim=Hanger' and all fellow flight sim enthusiasts, please Take care and stay safe.
Thank you - this helps a lot! I appreciate that you took the time to edit the timestamps for each chapter. This adds huge value to your videos. Thank you!
Mark, Thank you so much I'm watching the video late at night and will try your set ups tomorrow. I received my Bravo earlier in the week and had been dreading doing the configurations, but you've made it straight forward. Thanks again.
Hi Marc, Fortunaletly I had registered your tuto. After some up date I ahve lost all my configurations. Your tuto helped me a lot to redefine all settings. It's a master piece? Many many thanks. It's so useful.
Thank you. I have to say Asobo did a lot right with MSFS 2020, but the Control Profile editor whoever designed and implemented it need sorting out. They obviously never saw Microsoft's user interface guide lines.
Hi everyone! Unfortunately, the instructions described in this video regarding TBM-930 set up, no longer work. Please refer to the instructions below for a current Power Management solution. I use the 1st and 3rd joystick columns on my BTQ for my TBM-930 set up. If you like, configure your BTQ as listed below: THROTTLE: Throttle 1 Axis - Joystick L-Axis Y Throttle 1 Decrease - Joystick B24 Throttle 1 Cut - Joystick B26 PROPELLER: Propeller 1 Pitch HI: Joystick R-Axis Z+ (&) Joystick B26 Notes: - With this set up, you cannot move from low idle directly to high idle. To move to high idle from low, first take the propeller joystick out of detent, then slightly move the throttle joystick. Now push the propeller joystick up to move to high idle. However, you can move from high idle directly to low. - Any any point, to get the A/C's Throttle Stick back to the left side of the console, make sure the propeller joystick is neutral/idle, not up or in the detent position, then move the throttle joystick. - To cut the engine, move the propeller joystick to detent, and move the throttle joystick to detent. I hope this helps someone🙂.
Thanks for the info, was going crazy trying to get this to work. When I first tried this, it did not work, probably because I had so many things configured wrong:) I restarted the sim, then put all this in like you mentioned, and it worked great. Thanks again.
Great videos - I noticed that you are able to take the prop lever into the detent. When I program it and then checking it, the lever does not go into the detent for feather or throttle reverse. What am I possibly missing?
Another superb video. As I’ve reported, I’ve had my Bravo on order from Amazon UK since 3rd August and they’re saying, we don’t know when, I think they’ve given up ever getting any. So I’ve ordered one from Aerosoft, and they’re saying Spring. The good news is that when I eventually get one I will be able to use your super videos to set it up. Thanks in advance Noel
Hi Mark and great video tutorial as always. Finally managed to get a RTX 4090 but had to get a new rig since my Lian Lancool case was too small. Worked with a build technician at Micro Center and upgraded my CPU to a 13900 K along with the new GPU and a bigger case. Had to re-configure the Bravo Throttle Quandrant and used your video to make it happen. Thanks!
Hi Mark, thanks, all set with the basics. Here are some extras I liked: 1. On the fixed wheel planes (most GA) I have the Parking Brake handled by the Gear switch. It creates a real physical feel that fits the PB handle very well. 2. I too left space between Throttle and Prop, but I pointed the empty base of the 2nd axis upwards and covered it "upside down". The cover fits just as good and it gives more hand-room to handle the throttle in the lower half of it's range, which is where 90% of the action happens. I also have a question: How are people mapping the ignition and the starter buttons in the Grand Caravan, I'm not having any luck with those. Apparently those seven toggle switches do not behave as a one-time action switch, but rather generate ongoing, repetitive actions (causing the stuttering). As you probably found out, those seven switches work best with the "Set xyz" functions e.g. Set Cabin Lights = Joystick Button 36, nothing else. Mark, please consider a tutorial on that part of the BTQ, some of it is, surprisingly, rather tricky.
It is tricky. For parking brake I had to use toggle. Fuel pumps were also a challenge and my setup works with most GA aircraft, but a bit hit and miss on the jets. The gear lever for ga is a great idea. I’m definitely going to have to try that. 👍
Hi Mark. Great video but I'm new to the Honeycomb throttle quadrant and I can't get it to work with the TBM 930. I've follows your tutorial 'to the letter', but the propeller axis doesn't perform correctly as I can't advance the main throttle to the low 'first position' during engine startup. Please could you revisit this and perhaps update it for the TBM930...? Many thanks!
I'd like to add a "me too" to the commenter who asked about the best setup for the DA62. Had hoped this video might show it in the Options sections when it showed that aircraft, but it wasn't to be. The search continues. With its FADEC controls and other variations from the classic throttle/prop/mixture twins, I'm starting to think that using a twin turboprop or jet as template might be the best. I might even use those throttles instead of the GA version.
Thanks for the detailed explanation, I just got my Bravo last week and tried it out for the first time last night and found it’s not quotes a plug and play as the yoke was. The problems I’m having are: 1- axis are not mining the levers in sim accurately, it’s like there are a few positions, moving the throttle /mixture /prop through the range the sim jumps between a few positions. The worst part is that it’s not the same for both engines (eg with bravo quad both throttles 50% left engine sim lever is about 25% right is still full throttle) on any levers so it does make for some very interesting yaw conditions. When you look at response curves they register there correctly, it’s just in the plane. I’ve also set the responses to linear to try to equalize to no avail. This is happening in MSFS and X-Plane 11. 2- more of an annoyance but in MSFS only I have to set throttle 2 to reverse axis but throttle 1 does not need to be. That isn’t a problem in X-Plane. Troubleshooting to resume tonight, but your video will give me a head start.
@@SimHangerFS thanks again, after a couple hours I’m up and running. I used a variation of your tip, after unassigning and reassigning the axis’s multiple times, I unassigned them and exited the sim, came back in and assigned the throttle, prop, and mixture axis’s and it worked. Much more controllable! That was MSFS, now for X-Plane.
Hi great video. Can you let me know how you configured your fuel pump button for on and off? I can only find the "toggle" option so using the on/off button function doesn't work as desired.
Your videos are awesome. Do you think you could do a video showing how to configure the Honeycomb Bravo for the new Carenado PC-12? Keep making the great videos!!
Hello everyone, can anyone help? From cold start, is there a way to start 1 engine at a time on the Beechcraft Baron G58 using the Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls yoke? I try to follow the in-sim checklist, but it seems I can only start both engine using the yoke...
Thank you for this, I've now got a few nice configs for my newly arrived quadrant. Q: Which setting did you use for the Fuel pump switch? There are quite a few of them to choose from. :)
Hi Mark-this has been a very helpful video. I want to ask you in regards to the fact that I recently got the Pilots Dash 7 four engine turbo prop.I have still presently got my bravo throttle quadrant set up as the default GA twin which of cause only works the 2 left throttle on the actual plane .I am thinking that perhaps for a a workable solution is to setup a profile on the bravo for 4 engine jet with then also using the normal reverse thrust indent(still using my mouse to control the 4 condition levers).As another idea someone has said that its possible with the Bravo to set it up so that the left black throttle on the bravo moves both left throttles on the actual Dash 7 plane.Then set it up likewise with the bravo right black throttle to move the 2 right throttles on the actual plane .With your knowledge of setting up different configurations on the Bravo do you think this second method is even possible ?I would be interested in your feed back.Kind regards
Thank you so much for this, I just got my Bravo yesterday. One question if anyone knows... What setup's the best to use with the DA-62? Also, since the 100 or 1000 increments of altitude is a clickable button in the A320, is there any way to map that change of increment to a button somehow?
Would love to know this too. I'm working my way through a refresher with ye olde Cessna, then transition to the DA40 - but then plan on making the DA62 my main ride. I would assume a lot gets *much* easier with its full FADEC?
Are there hard detention positions on the hardware? I’m curious to know how configuring everything for a single or twin engine turbo prop would work - going into beta range for example. Thanks.
Now that the PMDG DC-6 is out it is apparent that HoneyComb did not think about a 4 engine prop profile. They did think of the 4 engine jet profile & physical layout of the levers. Will we have to bind 2 props (throttle-prop-mixture) to one lever using the 2 engine prop profile? Could you look at this for us? Thank you.
Hi Mark, wondering if you could help me out. I purchased the Embraer 110 from SimMarket and am having some problems setting up the bravo throttle quadrant. It's a turboprop and it has condition levers. There are no provision for condition levers in MSFS 2020. I have the throttles and prop levers set up but the prop levers do nothing. The prop RPM follows the throttle. I was wondering if you might be able to help those of us that have this airplane and the bravo throttles to figure out how to set them up. You may not have the airplane so you might not be able to help. But thanks for any information you could provide. I guess maybe I might have to go into FSUIPC 7 to try and set them up....anyhow, thanks for your videos and help. You have really made a lot of things clear. Much appreciated.
Hi, Mark...Very much appreciate your videos... have a new Alpha and Bravo, and have been trying to configure props. I've just finished the props setup, all is good except I have lost my camera views. No bindings are showing up. Any idea what I've done wrong? Cheers
Hi, there have been issues related to this on the MSFS forums, you should take a look. Seems to be a corrupt dll somewhere? Also just to be sure....the window that opens to access views is often too small etc. Drag it to make it longer and the external views may be there. Sorry I can’t be of more help. Regards
Hi and thank you for the good content you making. I only havet one problem I can't fix. In your video at 7 minutes setting up mixture prop and throttle. Having it in detent as you show with same programming as you with button 28, at mine it will not light up as on yours.? Any tip for me please sir? 😊 Trying to set up reverser in the detent at the throttle with no luck 🤔
im lost i need help on the led lights honeycomb throttles ,i installed the new driver and nothing no lights, i look in the msfs content manager and shows not install , but it shows in the community folder. i really need help.
Thank you Mark good video,I usually like to map controls for every plane I fly just a personal preference,off topic msfs airhauler 2 just got an update you can now Import encrypted planes via the simconnect i haven't tried it yet to busy with prepard,Also if your not familiar with wideview i can run msfs on 1 computer and prepard on other my machines can handle it I have yet to try it but it might be awesome.
Hello Mark. First of all thanks and congrats for your very good videos and explanations. I've followed this one to complete my profiles and more specifically the 7 black switches. For these ones I 've one remark. You've configured the last switch (at the far right) for activate/deactivate anti-icing. This generates an undesirable effect on one switch button of the Beechcraft King Air 350i : the < SURFACE DEICE SINGLE > which is constantly moving between ON/OFF positions. IS this a bug with that plane or is it something else ? Can you also reproduce the same problem ? Thanks in advance.
Hello, and thanks for your support. I have not tried it on the King Air, but typically when this happens you need to configure the same button twice.....off and on. Hope it makes sense. Regards
@@SimHangerFS Hello. It certainly makes sense :) but I still don't see what I have to configure more. I've followed your videos, configured de general anti-icing (black switch button 7). This is working perfectly for the 2 buttons on the cockpit to which it relates (in the King Air) btu then a third button is having this bad effect... Maybe you could try to reproduce it to see what I mean exactly ? No obligation of course... ;)
My fuel mixture doesn't work after update 6, checked assignments and is all set up correctly but when move leavers ones in game cockpit no longer move, flying beechcraft kingair
@SimHanger Flight Simulation, I have an issue with the BTQ and wanted to know if you had any insight about it. I setup the throttle as instructed by the video, and when I move the throttle up, it increases as should in the sim. The only prob is that when the throttle is nearly all the way up in the sim it’s only at around 50%. When I move the throttle all the way up, in the sim, it then jumps up suddenly to full throttle, like a glitch. This isn’t a huge issue with the airliners but with the GA aircraft it can be quite annoying. Let me know when if you know anything about this 😁
Hello, firstly check the sensitivity of your axis in sim. To test make all axis default. Secondly it could be you have something else also allocation to the throttle....check all controllers and buttons. Also check the calibration of all axis in windows. Does this happen on all axis or just one?
@@SimHangerFS ok so I found that other controllers in the sim had a button assigned to throttle so I cleared all those inputs and still the same thing. The sensitivity on the axis was already default, so I went into Windows’ calibration wizard and the axis appeared normal. Let me know if you know anything else. Your help is greatly appreciated 😁
@@wordofrhema I would recommend you check you have the latest MSFS config file from Aerosoft/Honeycomb. Then delete a current config giving you problems and rebuild from the new default config. Let me know how you get on.
Good, it would be helpful if you talked a bit slower and showed which switches or buttons you were mapping. I had to stop and restart the video several times to finally understand where you were headed with you instructions. Good video and well thought out but please slow down a bit.
Hi everyone. Anyone know how to get the reverse thrusters to work on the Beechcraft Baron G58 using the Bravo Throttle Quadrant? I have Throttle 1 Decrease set to detent button 24, and Throttle 2 Decrease set to detent button 25. When I pull the levers all the way down, the A/C doesn't move in reverse at all. Can anyone help?
@@SimHangerFS I was starting to figure that since when I move the lever to detent, it doesn't animate in game😄. Thank you so much for your quick response. I've learned so much from your videos🙂.

The prop RPM follows the throttle. I was wondering if you might be able to help those of us that have this airplane and the bravo throttles to figure out how to set them up. You may not have the airplane so you might not be able to help. But thanks for any information you could provide. I guess maybe I might have to go into FSUIPC 7 to try and set them up....anyhow, thanks for your videos and help. You have really made a lot of things clear. Much appreciated.
Hi, I don’t have the aircraft so not sure. I assume it doesn’t work as per the TBM.
Hi, Mark...Very much appreciate your videos... have a new Alpha and Bravo, and have been trying to configure props. I've just finished the props setup, all is good except I have lost my camera views. No bindings are showing up. Any idea what I've done wrong? Cheers
Hi, there have been issues related to this on the MSFS forums, you should take a look. Seems to be a corrupt dll somewhere? Also just to be sure....the window that opens to access views is often too small etc. Drag it to make it longer and the external views may be there. Sorry I can’t be of more help. Regards
Hi and thank you for the good content you making. I only havet one problem I can't fix. In your video at 7 minutes setting up mixture prop and throttle. Having it in detent as you show with same programming as you with button 28, at mine it will not light up as on yours.? Any tip for me please sir? 😊 Trying to set up reverser in the detent at the throttle with no luck 🤔
Check you have the latest driver installed and build profiles from that.
Does this still work after SU5? This is the best method I've seen yet!
Yes it does, ensure you are using the latest bravo driver install for MSFS.
Thanks for the super explanation. Is there a solution to the 10° problem with the heading, NAV, OBS buton?
Not yet, but MSFS update today so fingers crossed. 🤞
Hello. I've read recently this will be fixed with the upcoming World Update 4 ;-)
@@FlyingVince72 After World Update 4 it's OK
im lost i need help on the led lights honeycomb throttles ,i installed the new driver and nothing no lights, i look in the msfs content manager and shows not install , but it shows in the community folder. i really need help.
The driver shows as not installed. This is normal. The light update will only be in your default profile. Duplicate and build only from that profile.
I really enjoy flying the Cessna 172 I have yet to get the yoke and the throttle quadrant but I'm really wanting to some day
Hi Marc, thanks for the useful video.
Is it possible to config the TBM930 with a Saitek throttle Quadrant.
thanks in advance
JPaul
Yes, assign exactly as per the config in this video.
Amazing, thanks a lot!!!
did not work
when i try to feather my other engine, both goes to feather
I don't know why.
Thank you Mark.
Thank you Mark good video,I usually like to map controls for every plane I fly just a personal preference,off topic msfs airhauler 2 just got an update you can now Import encrypted planes via the simconnect i haven't tried it yet to busy with prepard,Also if your not familiar with wideview i can run msfs on 1 computer and prepard on other my machines can handle it I have yet to try it but it might be awesome.
You'll need a beast of a machine to run both at the same time! 😀
@@SimHangerFS hi Mark not in 1 computer I run pd3 wideview setup on 2 computers my 2nd has a 2060 so it can handle msfs
Hello Mark. First of all thanks and congrats for your very good videos and explanations. I've followed this one to complete my profiles and more specifically the 7 black switches. For these ones I 've one remark. You've configured the last switch (at the far right) for activate/deactivate anti-icing. This generates an undesirable effect on one switch button of the Beechcraft King Air 350i : the < SURFACE DEICE SINGLE > which is constantly moving between ON/OFF positions. IS this a bug with that plane or is it something else ? Can you also reproduce the same problem ? Thanks in advance.
Hello, and thanks for your support. I have not tried it on the King Air, but typically when this happens you need to configure the same button twice.....off and on. Hope it makes sense. Regards
@@SimHangerFS Hello. It certainly makes sense :) but I still don't see what I have to configure more. I've followed your videos, configured de general anti-icing (black switch button 7). This is working perfectly for the 2 buttons on the cockpit to which it relates (in the King Air) btu then a third button is having this bad effect... Maybe you could try to reproduce it to see what I mean exactly ?
No obligation of course... ;)
Is it compatible with the Microsoft flight simulator X steam edition?
The bravo TQ is but the driver is a different download…see honeycomb site,
My fuel mixture doesn't work after update 6, checked assignments and is all set up correctly but when move leavers ones in game cockpit no longer move, flying beechcraft kingair
Try delete and reassign controller binding. Config may be corrupted.
@@SimHangerFS thanks will try that
@@SimHangerFS hi Mark, that didn't help but changed aircraft to Barron and its working fine, its just not working in King Air 350
@@CarlCrez Weird...not sure what the issue is?
@SimHanger Flight Simulation, I have an issue with the BTQ and wanted to know if you had any insight about it. I setup the throttle as instructed by the video, and when I move the throttle up, it increases as should in the sim. The only prob is that when the throttle is nearly all the way up in the sim it’s only at around 50%. When I move the throttle all the way up, in the sim, it then jumps up suddenly to full throttle, like a glitch. This isn’t a huge issue with the airliners but with the GA aircraft it can be quite annoying. Let me know when if you know anything about this 😁
Hello, firstly check the sensitivity of your axis in sim. To test make all axis default. Secondly it could be you have something else also allocation to the throttle....check all controllers and buttons. Also check the calibration of all axis in windows. Does this happen on all axis or just one?
@@SimHangerFS thanks for the help 😁 I will test tomorrow and I will update you then
@@SimHangerFS ok so I found that other controllers in the sim had a button assigned to throttle so I cleared all those inputs and still the same thing. The sensitivity on the axis was already default, so I went into Windows’ calibration wizard and the axis appeared normal. Let me know if you know anything else. Your help is greatly appreciated 😁
@@wordofrhema I would recommend you check you have the latest MSFS config file from Aerosoft/Honeycomb. Then delete a current config giving you problems and rebuild from the new default config. Let me know how you get on.
@@SimHangerFS sounds good
How do we get into the Propeller Feather mode?
See here th-cam.com/video/Yv1JRURqqaU/w-d-xo.html
do you have any set ups for a glider MSFS 2020
No not yet, no gliders in MSFS as of now. Regards
Have you fixed the Bravo hdg/alt/as 100/1000 change ?
No, this is not a Honeycomb issue but a bug in MSFS. I hope for a fix with the next major update in about a month.
my props always go to 1/2 in the game, even though I put them on full. Any ideas how to fix it?
@@Heyemeyohsts recalibrate in windows?
@@SimHangerFS I spent hours trying to fix this... you know what it was?? MY CH YOKE HAD THE PROP SET TO 1/2!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
reverser mode ?
Good, it would be helpful if you talked a bit slower and showed which switches or buttons you were mapping. I had to stop and restart the video several times to finally understand where you were headed with you instructions. Good video and well thought out but please slow down a bit.
Hi everyone. Anyone know how to get the reverse thrusters to work on the Beechcraft Baron G58 using the Bravo Throttle Quadrant? I have Throttle 1 Decrease set to detent button 24, and Throttle 2 Decrease set to detent button 25. When I pull the levers all the way down, the A/C doesn't move in reverse at all. Can anyone help?
Hello, the G38 does not have reverse thrust…so setting this has no impact. The King Air does.
@@SimHangerFS I was starting to figure that since when I move the lever to detent, it doesn't animate in game😄. Thank you so much for your quick response. I've learned so much from your videos🙂.
@@SimHangerFS Hello again, I'm sorry to bother you with another question, but if you don't mind...
From cold start, is there a way to start 1 engine at a time on the Beechcraft Baron G58 using the Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls yoke?
I try to follow the in-sim checklist, but it seems I can only start both engine using the yoke...
Hallo, does this configuration work for TBM 930?
Watch the video…there is a separate section (time stamps included) on the TBM 930
Hallo, i configured Saitek throttle for kodiak 100 according your tutorial and it works very well. I can appreciate blade propeller that move in feather position. I suppose that starting from this confinguration (kodiak 100) I can duplicate and apply your tutorial for TBM930. Am I right? thank you for your support
@@antoniopettini9503 no the TBM is different config as shown in video
Beech KingAir 350i all day long!
Warum macht keiner was in deutsch hier
Prop is not fine because it did not feather.
