Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial. For those who are on an M1 Mac (Max) Try this - Run X-Plane in Rosetta mode. Your LED's should work, and the autopilot (rotary knobs) should work as well EVEN if you don't see the 'number options' listed in the profile settings area.

[@CanadianTexaninLiguria]

Quick and Easy when it works. When the lights don't com on and the selectors don't work, you're hanging in the wind as no one has shown how to activate individual lights yet in the configurator. Lots of videos like this but none when the defaults don't work as they're supposed to.

[@bricktopperheadon5490]

The help provided in this video stopped me from returning my bravo quadrant. I’m a new flight simmer, it astonishes me that this thing is sold with absolutely no coherent instruction on it’s setup and use. I’ve had it for two days and am gradually getting it to a satisfactory level of use. Just can’t seem to get the A/P working yet. I would be absolutely lost without these videos.

Well done. This is the second video of yours I have watched, and I must say you do a nice job. You plan/script your video and you are clear and articulate.

[@paulwilson8367]

The main point is having to download the drivers, something I didn't realize. I couldn't understand the configurator so I just left that site. In XP12, I got the essential speed brake and throttles going. I set up the reversers in the same manner that you did but, no workee. I will have to try things to figure out why not. With my old Saiteks, I could simply pull them back into the detent and they worked, perhaps XP remembered that? Not sure. Fortunately my yoke has convenient buttons for the gear, TOGA, and flaps, as well as the trim. Tomorrow I will try to set up the PMDG 737 in MFS2020. Be interesting to see if reverse works in that. I got the Bravo throttles so I could also fly the ATR in MFS, and that is working fine, but has to be re-done so the positions match with the 737 and I don't have to swap throttle handles going back and forth.

[@paulwilson8367]

Actually, I found that one of my reversers works and the other one didn't. That shows that it was the correct procedure. I have re-set the other one and will try it again.

[@MisiekBaer]

Hello and thanks again for providing the informative tutorials. I run X-Plane on in MacOSX and it seems like some functionalities are not working as advertised. I.e. the import of profiles in the configurator does not work for me. I am also unclear how I would go about, or if it is necessary at all, to create a specific profile for the individual aircraft in my sim, i. e. Boeing, Airbus or generally single or multiple engine jets and various different turboprops, single or multiengine. How does X-Plane recognise these different profiles, that were created in the honeycomb configurator. Should or must we have different honeycomb profiles to match the different aircraft in X-Plane. In X-plane settings I only see the default honeycomb profile that can be bound to the bravo throttle. Should one see all the different honeycomb profiles that were created in order to tie them to a certain aircraft in X-Plane? Am I overthinking something?

[@SimHangerFS]

Hello, the config module only gives you one profile with all the LED's activated. You can then build new profiles from that one, changing the config as needed and saving the profiles in Xplane under different names. You need to build from default or another profile created from the default....all existing profiles will not have the LED's activated. Regards

[@MisiekBaer]

@@SimHangerFS Hello and thanks again for the quick response. I do understand what you are writing, but still it completely escapes me X-plane recognises the different profiles that I created or that were created by others. When I open up X-planes joystick settings menu, there only seems to be the default honeycomb profile and none of the other profiles that were created in Honeywell configuration tool. I think we talking different issues. How do the AFC_Bridge bindings find their way into X-Plane? I think I am either missing a step or something is not working the way it is supposed to.

[@SimHangerFS]

@@MisiekBaer these are two separate issues. If you create a specific profile in the config tool you need to activate it in the config tool to push it into Xplane. Once in Xplane you can save this under another name for future use in Xplane. The other way/alternative is to use the default honeycomb profile that you initially activated as the basic building template to build new profiles for each aircraft or for each generic type of aircraft. Hope I have answered your question ....if not let me know. Regards

[@SimHangerFS]

@@MisiekBaer , when you activate a profile in Xplane it should be there. Click on the profiles to show alternative saved profiles.

[@MisiekBaer]

@@SimHangerFS I think I am beginning to see light at the end of the tunnel. Part of the confusion came from the fact that the configurator inititially did not work for me and I am still unable to import profiles. My take-away for building my own profiles is to activate the profile in the configurator and then x-plane can find these settings if a profile of the same a/c model is being configured in joystick settings. My second biggest take-away is that the aircraft specific data refs which must be addressed in the honeycomb profile will then also be recognised by the joystick settings for that a/c type. Honeycomb generic settings may or may not work for the various aircraft types in X-Plane and this goes mostly for the switches not the axis. Another caution is to be aware that not all downloadable Aerosoft profiles will work in the configurator.

[@rangerbob1147]

Thanks got my throttles today Followed along carefully but cant get the panel to work or light up

[@SimHangerFS]

Hi, the light configuration may not have copied across to your existing profiles, check the DEFAULT profile and they should work. This unfortunately means you will need to rebuild your profiles. Regards

[@quintenzappe3412]

When the msfs update releases can you see if all the lights light up on the Throttle when you test the annunciator lights on a plane in the sim? I know the default 172 with steam gauges has annunciator test and I think the cap 10 does as well. The flybywire a320 also can test the lights.

[@SimHangerFS]

Good point I will check.

[@warwickmarks3269]

Hi Mark - absolutely love your videos and enthusiasm. I have X-Plane 11 and will probably not get MSFS for a while. I am having an issue with assigning my Honeycomb Bravo levers in X-Plane. (I had the same issue with the Saitek throttle quadrant). Despite numerous calibration attempts my (737) throttles would be reversed - ie increasing the throttle would result in a decrease power in the sim and vice versa). The axis for the speedbrake and flaps is reversed (is this correct?). Do you have any suggestions? Should I re-install the Bravo?

[@SimHangerFS]

Hi Warwick, this is a common issue, but easy to rectify. In the Joystick menu in Xplane, when binding an axis, you will see a small box labelled REVERSE AXIS tick that box and the axis will be reversed. Problem solved. Regards

I installed the drivers for XP11 and FSXSE. I have two XP11 installations, and only one of them got the proper driver install; ie, the second one (11.51) does not have the illustration of the Bravo in settings, although it does seem to work with it. This appears to be related to the lack of the bridge plugin in the 11.51 install, whereas it appears in the 11.50 basic install. I have tried to install it again, to no avail. Using the correct path. Any idea what went wrong?

[@SimHangerFS]

@@SimHangerFS Multiple installs of XPlane are typical, particularly for those of us who play with the betas. Right now I am keeping the 11.50 because one of my add-ons likes it better than 11.51.

Hi thanks for the video. I am having an issue. I have done everything as shown in the video I believe. my issue is the gear lever does not do anything except when flying the zibo 737.

If I fly zibo 737 however the gear lever works as it should. can you help me?

[@SimHangerFS]

Hi Steven, sounds odd. First thing that comes to mind is what controller profile are you using for other aircraft. The lights config may not have carried across perhaps to other configurations. You may need to rebuild all configs from your default profile which will link the lights to the bindings. Regards

My question is: How does the Configurator see the profile as "done" in X-Plane/ Settings? (xxx.prf file type).

Hello, you need to start with the configurator, take the default and activate this. This will load this profile into Xplane with the led’s etc pre-configured. Using this new profile build new profiles for your aircraft saving with different names. The config profile will be carried across. If you need to change anything in the configurator then save that as a different name in the configuration program and activate. This will load the changed profile into XP. Now build new profiles based on that. I recommend deleting all ‘’old’’ profiles for safety. Hope this helps.

Hi Michael, you would need access to the specific commands for those functions by the developer, they have used their own set of parameters rather than the default.

I am trying to setup the Honeycomb bravo throttle quad for the Xplane HotStart TBM900 with a turboprop engine and latest lever control system.

HELP -The Xplane 11 Mac driver link is greyed out and can't be downloaded.. 😮 anyone else has this issue..is the driver available anywhere else?

[@peterbury1934]

I've had 4 different delivery dates ( First ordered on 1st September 2020)from Amazon UK but now they inform me that they cannot give me any delivery date, does anyone know what the hell is going on with supply, i have seen the Throttle on sale in E-bay for twice the MRRP.--disgraceful

[@SimHangerFS]

The scalpers are out in force at the moment, from graphic cards to VR headsets, your right it is disgraceful, but somewhat predictable. Regards

Has anyone figured out how to change the annunciators to work with the Zibo? I tried to bind a dataref so that when the CMD A is engaged, the AP light turns on but that didn't work.

[@theaviatorschannel4960]

Great tutorial but unfortunately, the XP11 download button doesn't work anymore. Any other ways I could access the zip file?

Right click on the download link and choose incognito and it downloads. It does this some browsers. Weird.

Mark. Is there a configurator for P3D? I have installed the Bravo but no installation reference,starr up icon, nothing. The unit does show up in Devices and on P3D but nothing or nowhere else. All videos/forums refer to X Plane or MSFS. Help. How do I set it up in P3D V4.5? Thank you

[@SimHangerFS]

Hi Dennis, yes there is. Go to Honeycomb Aeronautical website, on first page scroll down to vey bottom and click on downloads link. Scroll down once on the downloads link and you will see the config download for P3D. Download zip file. Unzip and install. This will put an icon to the configurator on your desktop. Double click the icon and your away. Regards

I'm having trouble setting up reverse thrust with the zibo 737

[@SimHangerFS]

Hi, the Zibo does not use default Xplane settings for some of the functions. That is why your having problems. Sorry I have not done a separate config for the Zibo.

[@MonkeBlak]

On controls maping setting you type 738 and the zibo comes up and all the functions is there all you have to do is start selecting what bottom want to do.

[@martyscott7784]

Can you do one for P3D on PMDG 737ngxu and how to do the flaps?

[@SimHangerFS]

I will be doing one for P3Dv5, but PMDG use their own bespoke config which they don’t make public. However I believe Aerosoft will be releasing one for PMDG aircraft. Keep an eye on their site. Regards

Hi Fantastic video. Without your video, It was impossible for me to configure the H.B. for X-Plane 11 A great thank you. I have a problem with the course. With all an afternoon and a part of the night, I have no solution found to manage the CRS Button. I have found with data ref editor (after a very long time) 3 lines; sim/cockpit2/radio/actuators/hsi_obs_deg_mag_pilot=0.000000 sim/cockpit2/radio/actuators/nav1_obs_deg_mag_pilot=0.000000 sim/cockpit2/radio/actuators/nav_obs_deg_mag_pilot=[0/12]0.000000 I do not know what I have to indicate in condition 4 /variable. Could you please help me. I fly with the X-CRAFT EMB 135 I hope you will read my request. Best from a former airline pilot

The CRS button and config is mislabelled…it is the VS or FLC function.

@@SimHangerFS Hi good News. My problem with the course button is solved. The course button is working with the incress and decress button now . I have a new problem. I do not find the solution. It is for the ANTI ICE led. 6 buttons are working (pilot,windshied,eng air inlet, wing)The problem is with the stab button for the ANTI ICE led. I have the command but not the value. With the value =0 the ANTI ICE led is blocked ON. With the value =1 the ANTI ICE led is blocked OFF Have you an idear please ?

I had the same issue when I got mine. I opened a ticket with Honeycomb and the discovered the issue. The issue is when the user transfere the XPq1 to another drive the Honeycomb SW won’t see or deduct where the XP is instslled. To fix this goto to the following path: C:\Users\*your username*\AppData\Local\x-plane_install_11.txt And delete all the old XP paths and keep the current XP path only, be carfull don’t delete the current path of your current XP drive path.

If you have a throttle not working, delete any bindings to that axis and rebind/configure. Regards

I found the whole thing really rushed and I lost track very early on. If the video had the same content in twice the time it would probably work better. It is too hastily edited I'm afraid.

Terrible video. Such potential, but so hastily presented. Ex: "[Do this] and you'll have an icon on your desktop." Well, show me that icon! What icon? The next thing you tell us is to click on the icon, but what icon???? Man, why make a video like this? Just to show us that you know what you're talking about but that you're not going to show us? What the heck.

If you're at this stage in computer knowledge you may want to seek help in getting your controller set up. This video is precise and to the point without fuzzing about - and still 21:38 minutes long. Says a bit about the amount of content.
