Purchased for MSFS 2020 and it is perfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Purchased this to fly GA in MSFS 2020 and it is perfect. At this price point the quality is really good. The top of the unit provides a nice base to place a keyboard or other control panel on top.

BIG upgrade from my CH Products yoke.
||Posted .On the CH products one, the was a ton of stiction* in the pitch direction. The roll axis was fine. There was a centering control for pitch that also had a ton of stiction, and giant movement once you got it to move. (it mechanically centered the pitch axis.) The pitch centering is non-resistant on the Honeycomb, but I use one of the two thumb switches for yaw trim (or 7 and 1 on the keypad). The pitch motion of the yoke is totally smooth. The centering spring is probably heavier than I would have chosen, but at least it moves smoothly. Front to back, it takes a LOT more space, so be sure you have room to mount it. I had to remove some stuff from my desk to make room for it. The mounting knobs below the desk also take up a lot of knee room. I finally got it positions so that my knee isn't constantly hit it as I move my rudder pedals. I guess the screws are extra long to accommodate both normal and extra thick desks. Too bad they don't have one for normal desks and one for thicker mounting needs. The panel switches work well. The software doesn't know whether they are on or off. Only when they change position, up or down. One has to remember to turn them off before stopping (in my case) P3D. Perhaps FS 2020 when it comes out will work better in this regard. The leftmost thumb switch I use for xxx the next on I use for pitch trim. The upper right thumb switch I use for roll trim and the lower one for yaw trim. The documentation that comes with it is pretty poor and doesn't mention the pretty nice software it comes with for mapping the switches to actions in P3D (the have another one for X-Plane). That works quite well once you know about it. Unless you want to make changes you only have to run it once. I do it before I start P3D.

Q: QuestionSo is this all I need to use to fly MS Flight Sim 2020? Will this do the job? Thanks!
Asked by RickP.
- A:Answer I use this yoke for FS2020 and it works great. Flight Sim detects it and assigns all the buttons/switches to the correct function. Flight Sim even shows you a diagram of it in the controls menu!

Q: QuestionDoes the body have screw holes on the bottom to mount it to something like a wheelstand pro? Currently have a Saitek mounted to one along with rudder pedals and a throttle quad...and I just want to just replace the yoke.
Asked by MinnesotaWT.
- A:Answer This yoke is much better than the Saitek. A must upgrade. This yoke comes with a double plated horizontal mount (uses both mounts unlike the Saitek single vertical mount with two holes) that should work with the wheel stand pro. The yoke can also attach with an adhesive pad that locks onto the yoke and surface.
