By Rachel Morrison · · 2 min read
Honeycomb Aeronautical has announced the Charlie Rudder Pedals and an updated Bravo Throttle Quadrant with hall-effect sensors. The new hardware aims to deliver pro-grade control for simmers.
Honeycomb Aeronautical has expanded its popular flight simulation hardware lineup with the introduction of the Charlie Rudder Pedals and a revised Bravo Throttle Quadrant. The Charlie pedals feature a all-metal construction with adjustable tension and a unique cam system that provides realistic force feedback. They include toe brakes with progressive resistance and a wide stance for ergonomic comfort. The pedals are compatible with both PC and console, and integrate seamlessly with MSFS 2020/2024 and X-Plane 12.
The updated Bravo Throttle Quadrant now uses hall-effect sensors for all axes, eliminating potentiometer wear and improving precision. It retains the modular design that allows users to swap between jet, prop, and GA configurations. The new version also includes a revised autopilot panel with backlit buttons and a USB-C connection. Honeycomb has also improved the detent mechanism for reverse thrust and added customizable detents for idle and climb.
These new products are expected to ship in Q1 2027, with pre-orders opening next month. Pricing is set at $299.99 for the Charlie pedals and $279.99 for the Bravo throttle. For cockpit builders, Honeycomb will also offer a bundle discount. The company has stated that these releases are part of its commitment to providing high-quality, affordable hardware for the flight sim community. With these additions, Honeycomb continues to be a strong contender in the mid-range hardware market, competing with the likes of Thrustmaster and Winctrl.
