The Alpha pushed decent flight sim hardware under 300 dollars back in 2019, when the first version arrived at around 249 euros. It combines a yoke and a switch panel in one body: five position ignition key, master battery and alternator switches, avionics and light toggles, so a Cessna cold start happens on the hardware instead of the mouse. Both axes run on Hall effect sensors, roll travel covers 180 degrees, and the unit clamps to a desk edge. The XPC revision added USB-C and Xbox console support.
Suits general aviation flying and a first serious setup, especially paired with the Bravo throttle quadrant, sold separately. Pitch travel is shorter than on professional yokes, the plastic shell can creak under a firm pull, and centering comes from springs, not motors. Honeycomb also went through a messy management change in 2024, so support response times are worth checking first.
