I have been using mine for 2 weeks on Xbox and I love it. The loose throttle is not a problem for me. I mounted the system on a playseat airforce with a Buttkicker underneath. Great experience. A bit disappointed that the annunciator panel is not working yet.
Great look at the Velocity One after some weeks of use! Thanks for showing us! Yeah, the Honeycomb Alpha/Bravo combination was about $500.00 US when I got them. Price has recently gone up though, due to chip shortage etc... So now looking at about $560.00 US for both. But, you DO get a trim wheel with them, and also a flap switch, auto pilot controls, and an annunciator panel on the bravo. Certainly has more than the Velocity, but then again, that's expected for the higher cost.. LOL Looks like for the price range, the Velocity One is REALLY hard to beat! Had the Velocity One been an option when I was shopping, I likely would have chosen it! I like it! 😎 Thanks again Huddison!
Haha I just took way too much space to say the same... "If the Velocity One had been out earlier, I might very well have ended up with it", cuz in many ways it's "good enough" (and in a couple, superior.) Alas, I spent $500 on the Alpha?bravo, and there's no going back.
So glad you mentioned the pull back stickiness. I’ve been pondering returning the unit based on that. I found I had more control with my Xbox controller. Now to try and set the buttons
Thank you for this detailed review of the system, talking about the pro's and the con's.. Flying on the Xbox makes this an easy decision though.. as long as I can afford it someday soon .. 👍
In the Dizzychoonz video a cpmment by Tony Benson, to use draughproofing tape, was what I was thinking of doing. The side gap on the left of throttle levers is widern than on the right so I think some thin draughtproofing strip stuck on the side wall of the body would work quite well, although there shoild be more resistance out of the box. Flying the Zibo mod 738 in VR in Xplane I've already caught the throttle levers a couple of times.
I had one on pre order with turtle beach ⛱ for more than 8mnths . No joy. Bought one from amazon 3 weeks ago, not holding my breath. Might get one for Xmas 22.
Oh my god 8.5k subscribers! Huddison you have come a long way I remember when you had only 200 subscribers good job man 👍. Also is this yoke and throttle only for Xbox or does it also work for pc
What no one seems to be able to say is if this would work for other flight sims. I use Flightgear because the set up is not anywhere as complex as the other major sims. It has over 400 planes (free) and graphics which are not perhaps as good as pay ware but as a totally free open source with terrific Devs it works for me.
I used Flightgear as my first "serious" flight sim as an adult, before I got deeper into the hobby. It is indeed pretty cool for an open source project. I remember that it can address any buttons/axes that the OS sees, so... (FlightGear configuration is a nightmare though... I'm an old UNIX guy, but I don't wanna have to edit text files like that to get up in the air...)
Nice review! Would be nice if you would follow this up in a couple of weeks or so to see if it breaks in more, handles do keep their immersive feel and if Velocity updates the software/lights/panel!! Subscribed
Just bought mine 2 weeks ago...not alot of playtime due to IRL crap...but I gotta admit I bought the Velocity One Flight Yoke and Pedals for the complete system. I got no complaints yet and after watching some reviews I can't wait for MSFS to allow me to use the warning lights on my Yoke Edit: You poor soul...having to slum it with 1 20in monitor Edit 2: I bought my Turtle Beach Velocity One Flight Rudder from Microcenter($299.99..no interest if paid in 6mo) I bought the Velocity One Flight Yoke from Fingerhut. ($447.00)....I bought it here because I needed to use my $1600 credit account or Fingerhut was gonna chop it to $800. Frak Fingerhut for anything other than a credit reference on your credit report Edit 3 (and last). I solved the flight yoke metal shaft problem with a spray silicone on a cloth rubbed into the metal shaft.
Excited to get one after flying a proper 737 simulator with a yoke my!My flight stick, while great for fighter aircraft, is just not cutting it in the airliners and other yoke aircraft! Really think the seperate throttles (with reverse thrust detent) will be great in vr.
@@Huddison Cheers! Ordered one not long after posting that comment! ,They pretty scarce here down under (some due late next month) and i couldn't get one local, now i just have to wait for it to arrive from interstate! At least (for once, everything's normally inflated here) the price is fair at $479aud, which is about 340usd or 300euro.
I do like the look of it BUT as I have just spent 2 grand on a top line GC, I don't think the better half would be very pleased with me!!! I'll just stick with my Saitek system, quite pleased with that really.
Thanks for the post! I’ve actually been lucky enough to have tried both the Turtle Beach VelocityOne and the Honeycomb Alpha yoke and Bravo quadrant. I know the Alpha Bravo combo is about $200.00 more but is in the same price range compared to the higher end stuff such as Redbird Yoke and throttles. I’ll start with the positives like what you did you in your video. I like that the physical size of the VelocityOne is relatively small. It takes up way less space compared to the the Honeycomb Alpha Bravo combo. This helps when storing. When i’m storing it I can detach the throttle from the yoke and store both in my desk’s cabinet. They actually fit. To store the Alpha Bravo I put them back in their boxes. I also like the trim wheel and Cessna style push/pull throttle and mixture. I like how it clamps flush to the desk too: very clean. Ok, now for the what I don’t like. The elevator sticks some with the Turtlebeach. I didn’t notice any sticking with the Alpha. I’m glad you mentioned this improves over time. .
Cost aside, which do you prefer using, TB VelocityOne or Honeycomb? I haven’t had a chance to see either irl but general feedback seems to be markedly in favour of the Honeycomb.
@@PrinceBarin77 The Honeycomb Alpha yoke doesn’t include a trim wheel or throttle but I like it more. The videos and photos don’t do the Honyecomb justice: It looks and feels fantastic. The Velocity One is great too in that it includes all you need: yoke, trim wheel and throttle controls.
I like this yoke system but, as I only fly GA (to re-live my PPL days long gone!), I'll stick with my Logitech kit for the following reasons: 1. I only fly 3 to 5 times a week so the Logitech kit is more cost effective with reduced air time usage. 2. The Logitech addon multipanel and switch panel will give me all I need for my flying (at about the same price with my yoke as the Velocity One kit) 3. As I mentioned in a comment on one of your Logitech reviews, I'm mounting the yoke beneath my desktop as it places the yoke in a better position for me and frees up needed real-estate on the desktop. (Having only 45 degree aileron control gives no problem and misses my knees!) I'll be giving further details on this (with photos) on your Discord page soon. Many thanks for you informative reviews -very useful to draw comparisons!
Thanks again for another informative video. I am curious if you have modified any of your initial custom settings from what they were two weeks ago? By the way, I just had my yoke delivered yesterday. So far I love it, a really smooth flying experience.
Hi Roger, I've not really adjusted many of the settings; most of the default settings are pretty solid I've found. Great to hear that you're also enjoying your Flight Yoke System ;)
Thank you looking forward to the livestream. Problem is they sell out super fast. I can’t get one because I am to slow on the draw lol. Hopefully one day soon. Then I can retire the hotas and boy I can hardly wait for that.
Great video as always sorry I couldn't join the vintage flight the other day and just ordered my Velocity One for my Xbox S, should be here by the end of the week and I may mod the loose top throttles if they need it
Hello Jason, I have the same problem but afraid to use some lub. Is it working well after some use? or never tried yet? Thanks for your answer. From Portugal
JUst getting used to mine but one thing is driving me nuts (well 2.) When I bank right (Sitting left seat Cessna) I slide into the right hand seat!! WTF . And when ever its plugged in , it switches off audio !!
I know I’m late but try use oil or somthing smooth a small bit close to the piston part for when your pulling back to pull up or flaring it should be a bit smoother I had not done it I recommend looking at different fixes but if you want to you can try it’s
Good video but it would've been nice if you talked about the rotation of the yoke (does it do a full 90 degrees) and the feel of the system (does the plastic feel cheap).
Wonderful video - thank you! Loving my velocity one with the series x, however I bought a cheap wireless mouse and it was super laggy - I’ve returned it and now waiting for a wired mouse. Do you think that’ll solve the laggy mouse problem?
Thank you for your enthusiasm! I currently own the Thrustmaster Hotas One, which is not a yoke I agree, but so cheaper. At the moment I am more into jet fighters and the Hotas One is a must. Now is it possible to be as reactive with this Velocity yoke when you fly a fighter jet and you need instant and quick response or is it only recommended for Cessnas., airliners ? Also there is the Airbus yoke from Thrustmaster coming (for Xbox and PC). I wish you could make a second video after Christmas with this yoke to see if things have improved (new firmware and the pitch resistance issue). Talking about resistance, is it a force back yoke? Does it vibrate? Last thing maybe in your next video is to show how to map with one example such as communications or whatever and also if you could say a word on reverse thrust because there are 4 levers and two could be used for throttle, two for reverse thrust if possible?
I would stick with your Hotas One if you prefer to fly jets; Yokes are definitely more GA/Airliners orientated. There is no Force feedback or vibration with the yoke (which is quite typical for most yokes). I shall look into reverse thrust.
@@Huddison thank you for your fast answer and your videos which are always a delight. Honestly is is worth to buy a 2500 (or more) PC compared to what an Xbox series X already gives? Mods? Other planes or helicopters? Better picture quality? I'm not sure.. But you can compare, you have both!
You're able to change many graphic settings on the PC version (like Level of details, clouds, tress, water etc etc) & have the option of installing 100s of different mods and utility programs (like Electronic flight bags etc). Also, if you wish to use a specific rudder pedals and other hardware add-ons like Multi panels etc, then the PC version is currently your best option for doing this. If you're happy with the stock MSFS and Marketplace add-ons though, then there's no need to go beyond the Xbox version for now - hope this helps!
Great video. Thanks for the update. This looks like a good upgrade for my PC flight sim. I use a mouse with my Logitech flight yoke to adjust headings,altitude etc. Is the mouse usable as I have it sitting between the yoke and throttle unit.
Ah - I tend to place it to the right of my yoke system, as I'm right handed - although currently with my Velocity One setup being in the place/position it is, I place my mouse to the front and slightly right.
@@Huddison Found it: He using felt pads you'd use for putting under furniture stopping them sliding on slippy surfaces for more friction, Ill share the link :) ruclips.net/video/pVqmzlR4ZC4/видео.html
Highly useful info. I assume that when you say "GA" you really mean "single engine." And I assume the single-engine controls on this rig lack the vernier that most such aircraft have (twist to fine-tune the setting). Did I guess right? I just received my long-awaited Xbox-s yesterday and am about to plug it in. What's the best way to purchase MSFS? I really only intend to play MSFS (I'm not a gamer). I'm thinking I'll get things working with the stock control, then empty another piggybank for this controller. Just as an aside: I do wish YTers here would make a careful distinction between PC and Xbox implementations. They apparently aren't completely interchangeable, and I doubt that Xbox owners are likely to have or want a powerful PC to also run games. I bought the s model Xbox because the x model is essentially unavailable at MSRP here in the USA. When stores receive a shipment, it's pre-sold in five minutes.
Yes you guess correctly on both accounts. If you want to fly with others in MSFS (multiplayer) then I would recommend getting Gamepass - that way you can see if that playstyle suits you. Currently, you will require either Gamepass or Xbox Gold to fly with others.
Nice video again, just ordered one for my X-Box X, does changing the profile on the yoke display also change the profile in FS2020 ?? Also, if the sticky feeling is plastic on metal or plastic on plastic, a thin smear of silicone grease might fix it.
The sticky-ness really does subside after a bit of use; not certain whether it's plastic on metal or other. You have to match the profile in MSFS to the one you have set up with your yoke - not a great deal to choose from currently.
@@Huddison Thanks, i asked because there are some videos that show the controls being mapped from a completely custom option on the xbox, starting from a blank profile - not sure what option that would be on the yoke menu?
Hi Huddison - in the video you mentioned the sticky yoke improved after a few weeks. Would you know roughly how many hours that equated to? I have the sticky yoke and a few weeks later there is little to no improvement. Turtle Beach did tell me the same as you (I.e. it’s quite normal and should improve), but I’m probably at about 10 hours of usage so unsure whether this isn’t enough wearing in time or I have a rogue unit.
@@austinpuetz7750 mine was swapped out by turtle beach and the second unit is much better. I still think there is a slight resistance there but I’ve got used to it.
This is gonna sound a bit dumb I guess, but could you not apply the tiniest drop of say,WD 40 onto the yoke shaft or is that as I said dumb. Update. You’ve just convinced me to order one lol and it’s arriving Saturday 8th.
QUESTION: Are you getting a little bit of a loose "wiggle" on your yoke where its attached just behind the yoke wheel? I'm noticing that mine wobbles when using only one hand. In addition to the fact that its made of plastic and bends slightly there is additional wiggle or rocking. I play in VR so it registers as "pretravel" in my head.
@@Huddison Thanks for your reply. Good to know. I'll contact Turtle Beach. Basically, if you look at the back of the yoke "wheel" there is a circle it fits over. There is some wiggle room in the spacing of that fitting that causes the yoke to rotate slightly back and forth especially when using one hand if you were to nose down and then nose up for example. It appears that its a minor design flaw and I expect all units have this wiggle room as well. I also noticed that the piston will be extra sticky simply from the weight of the yoke. If I lift up on the yoke slightly when flaring I find that its much smoother. To me, this explains why its smoother pushing in vs pulling out for lack of better words lol ;)
Why does the world view , spin clockwise , non stop so you can not find an airport to choose to make a flight plan As soon as you click on it the world starts spinning very fast and doesn't stop until you exit the program .
Dear Huddison, First I would like to thank you very much for your extremely nice videos and very detailed explanations. Since yesterday I have also one Velocity and in fact I am very satisfied with it. However I have a problem and would like to ask you for your help. I never have used a trim wheel before and I was very happy to have it now on Velocity, especially after you were so delighted about it. The problem is that when I have set default mode on the yoke and in options that the plane react extremely strong on very, very slight move of the wheel and the plane flies down independent on fact whether I turned it up or down. If I have default mode on yoke and a new profile in options then the trim wheel react much easier but in no way there is a possibility to set a stable position and the wheel have to be moved all the time down and up if I want a more or less stable height. If I live the yoke and trim wheel for some seconds the plane starts to fly down. Probably I do not understand the trim wheel function and do something wrong. Hopefully the yoke is OK. Maybe you can advise me how to solve the problem? Thank you in advance! Regards from Warsaw!
Hi Zoki, the wind can affect level flight (i.e. it can push your aircraft up or down in altitude), so depending on what weather conditions you have set up, this might be affecting your general altitude stability. You may find this video useful: ruclips.net/video/y-bli374D8s/видео.html - in that video, I show how you can set sensitivities to your trim wheel, to make it some what less reactive. Lastly, feel free to join our discord; lots of experienced people in there who can help you with your flight adventures :)
Yeah I'm having a similar problem - if I look at the cockpit trim wheel it glitches up or down with slight movement causing the aircraft (cessna 152) to violently nose up or down and it then slowly rotates back to the original position so it's not possible to apply trim and have it hold a position. The slider in the control setup shows that the trim wheel is responding fine so it doesn't seem to be the wheel at fault but in game it's glitchy as all hell. The sensitivity settings made no difference for me. I'm not sure what's going on with this at all.
Ha! Sorted it. Another comment further down mentioned the Assistance Options....checked through and under 'Piloting' there is 'AI auto trim'. Turned that off (along with a bunch of other 'easy' settings in there) and that fixed it. I did feel like it was something in software fighting the trim wheel settings. Artificial Intelligence=oxymoron!
@@Huddison Dear Haddison, Thank you very much for fast response and help. Using your advice it is somewhat better now but for sure I have to exercise much more. Tomorrow I’ll try to apply the advice from Gravityboots. Best regards to all! Have a nice evening!
@@galaxyboots Yes, your advice in combination with sensitivity fine tuning helped and my Cesna doesn’t have a Boeing MAX “syndrome” at trimming anymore. Thank you both very much for your support. Regards!
Well mine arrived a day early and I’ve already managed a small flight and altered some buttons etc with your invaluable help. Very very pleased so far but I’m having a tiny bit of trouble steering the aircraft (Cessna) on the ground, it doesn’t seem as responsive as I presume it should be. Do you have any suggestions I could try. Thanks in advance.
@@Huddison Hi. Yes I am. The plane starts to turn but then it just goes off in any direction. Am I pressing the rudder buttons to hard perhaps? Thanks for your quick response btw. I’m still super happy with it though.
@@Huddison Thanks a lot. When I press the rudder buttons, the throttle goes high and then the plane runs away with me lol. It’s very strange. Thanks again for your help.
@@Huddison brilliant. Thanks so much. I now have control of the plane now. I switched off all in piloting assistant and it’s sorted. Just need to find out which one I need to keep off. Thanks again.
I just got the Honeycomb Bravo, which is obviously spectacular. But I think there's a lot to like about the Turtle Beach throttle quadrant... especially since it has the push pulls AND levers, it's pretty flexible. Too bad it can't be stand-alone, it would be a good budget option for people who fly a lot of Cessna etc. (like me.) But I couldn't give up the Honeycomb yoke for the Velocity One.
Yeah I have a suspicion (no evidence, just seems to be...) that the Velocity One trim wheel is a bit better too. It just seems like an all around good middle-ground all in one option. If it was a few bucks cheaper, I could probably live with it!
I guess what I'm saying is, it looks lovely and in isolation, I would probably have bought it for $350 instead of $500 for my Honeycomb setup... but it came out too late! By the time the Velocity One was out I already had the Alpha yoke... ignorance would have been bliss, but the money's been paid and I'm already in love. Turtle Beach is that lovely girl that just came around at the wrong time for me.
One thing that bothers me is that fairly useless screen on the yoke. It could have done some cool stuff, but its mostly a waste. How much did that bump up the price? Gimme a Velocity One without the wonky screen for $250!
Yeah and the RGB lights, I mean come on... RGB lights are for teenagers and people too much money, don't bloat the price of a nice flight control system with extraneous junk that does nothing but make nice pics to impress the PC bros with.
The stickiness of the pitch control may not be due to a mechanical issue but instead a digitation issue, i.e., too low of a resolving resolution. In comparison the Honeycomb Alpha yoke appears to have a superior resolving resolution by a factor of seven for sensing pitch. And to a lesser extent more linear as well. For further details see: ruclips.net/video/9zwNr91WMz4/видео.html However the narrator does wonder if he received a defective Velocity One Yoke or is the problem systemic? More testing is needed!
I've not personally encountered this issue; which thrust lever are you referring to - the top lever or push/pull one? You can try adjusting the sensitivities in controls options to see if that will help.
@@Huddison It's about a different thrust lever. It's about the one who is with the Logitech X52 Pro. Sorry I forgot to write this about it. I have already tried to change the sensitivity settings but that did not help
@@Huddison Ok, I will take a look again... and thanks for the review on this item! My Sim platform is currently MS 2020 (on PC), and I recently bought a Honeycomb flight yoke. Had I been aware of pre-release info on the Velocity One system, I would have waited a bit longer! However, I still may invest in one at some point, as surely it would cost less to go this route, as opposed to buying separate flight yoke and throttle quadrant. And of course, there's also the beauty of being able to operate an elevator trim control wheel with your own hand!🙂
I returned mine. It is an unfinished product. The yoke is a little sticky, the panel behind it is not active (always lit and not indicating anything at all). The throttle leavers have practically no resistance, they feel cheap and nasty. The switch panel underneath them is always lit so, again, You have no indication of what’s switched on or off. This is a beta product, and I am sic and tired of the gaming industry using us gamers as paying Beta testers. They are promising to implement the panel but, they relay on Microsoft to do so and, with the amount of bugs MSFS has, they have their hands full trying to resolve them… never mind trying to implement third party peripherals. So, it could easily take several moths before the light panels work if at all. All in, not worth half the price they are asking for. Not as it is right now.
I agree that they should've ensured that all the features were fully implemented before releasing it - I believe the Honeycomb throttle quadrant, also had features (like the lighting) not implemented on release (somebody correct me, if I'm wrong on this).
On Xbox, you have to have the T-flight pedals plugged into the Hotas 4 to use them - on PC just plug a set of rudders into a usb port on your PC & away you go.
Hello, Do we know if we can program this on xbox so you don’t have to use the xbox controller as a mouse? Can one of the hats on the velocity one can take place of the xbox pointer?
I've not found a way as of yet, but watch my latest video on how to set up most autopilot knobs to switches/buttons: ruclips.net/video/_CC2Zm6jtSc/видео.html
Definitely flaps, as I've tried that myself; I'm not quite sure why you would want parking brake and landing gear bound to them, but I guess that would be possible.
@@Huddison Parking brake for checklist process. Release the parking brake, set the parking brake. If you're using the sim to set a rhythm between flights and exercise the checklist even though out of place the motion and ability to fail provide the mental exercise needed. If you're flying a retractable gear aircraft, it's nice to have a lever to raise and lower the gear. I didn't see one built into the Turtle Beach, there is for example one built into the Honeycomb system. Of course, the user can also just buy a Logitech G pro flight switch panel. There is value recreating as many actions as possible. Yes, they can all be done with a mouse and keyboard, but??? Thanks for getting back to me.
Nice Video!:( But why would you film with such unbelievble bad Lightning?:D its literally the most important when filming. Most parts are just dark, black and grainy:P
I need to get either the Yoke or the Stick to try Flight Sim on my Xbox Series X and now there will be a sale and the Yoke is only 50% more than the stick.... I already have a playseat as I have been playing racing games for many years and that could turn me to the Yoke but I'm not sure if it's important compared to just placing the stick on the table.
Hello if I connect the turtle beach velocity one then I can no longer control the autopilot. I'll finish it all back to normal. Have used the proposed solution. Attach a video, hope you can help me despair already.
The Saitek yoke comparison (and it is a Saitek originally) doesn't mention the huge deadzones in each axis. They are not tweakable and the only solution is to buy and install, with some difficulty, a third party chip with better software that gets rid of the deadzones completely. I find the Saitek yoke unusable because of this and literally threw it away. It is not good enough for the Velocity One makers to say the yoke will bed in after a few weeks. It should be silky smooth on the first day. The levers on the Quadrant WILL loosen. It's inevitable. Turtle Beach should ALREADY have placed rubber strips in the mechanism. This is yet another poorly made device that will not last and I predict there will be a consumer backlash once the PR hype dies down.
I'm absolutely loving mine, changes the msfs experience completely on series x. Very customisable.
It's a Sim changer.
Where did you purchase it from?
Same
@@Huddison yes but where did you buy it from?
@@ct9037 Turtle Beach website.
Finally a quality setup for us Xbox users. I bought this today because of your videos. Thank you!
You are most welcome - enjoy it :)
I have been using mine for 2 weeks on Xbox and I love it. The loose throttle is not a problem for me. I mounted the system on a playseat airforce with a Buttkicker underneath. Great experience. A bit disappointed that the annunciator panel is not working yet.
Now a buttkicker is something I've been contemplating for along time! 🤔
How was it getting the Buttkicker set up? Not really plug and play, is it?
@@dicemanorama yeah not really. I had to drill a hole in the flat plate underneath the seat and use an adapter.
Saw a guy put felt furniture pads on the top throttle controls and it seemed to work amazing
I will be trying it myself as soon as my felt pads and controller arrive lol.
Great look at the Velocity One after some weeks of use! Thanks for showing us!
Yeah, the Honeycomb Alpha/Bravo combination was about $500.00 US when I got them. Price has recently gone up though, due to chip shortage etc...
So now looking at about $560.00 US for both. But, you DO get a trim wheel with them, and also a flap switch, auto pilot controls, and an annunciator panel on the bravo.
Certainly has more than the Velocity, but then again, that's expected for the higher cost.. LOL
Looks like for the price range, the Velocity One is REALLY hard to beat!
Had the Velocity One been an option when I was shopping, I likely would have chosen it! I like it! 😎

I do like the look of it BUT as I have just spent 2 grand on a top line GC, I don't think the better half would be very pleased with me!!! I'll just stick with my Saitek system, quite pleased with that really.
Lol yes, that might be wise David ;)
The Saitek/Logitech is still a firm favourite of mine too.
Thanks for the post! I’ve actually been lucky enough to have tried both the Turtle Beach VelocityOne and the Honeycomb Alpha yoke and Bravo quadrant. I know the Alpha Bravo combo is about $200.00 more but is in the same price range compared to the higher end stuff such as Redbird Yoke and throttles.
I’ll start with the positives like what you did you in your video. I like that the physical size of the VelocityOne is relatively small. It takes up way less space compared to the the Honeycomb Alpha Bravo combo. This helps when storing. When i’m storing it I can detach the throttle from the yoke and store both in my desk’s cabinet. They actually fit. To store the Alpha Bravo I put them back in their boxes. I also like the trim wheel and Cessna style push/pull throttle and mixture. I like how it clamps flush to the desk too: very clean.
Ok, now for the what I don’t like. The elevator sticks some with the Turtlebeach. I didn’t notice any sticking with the Alpha. I’m glad you mentioned this improves over time.
.
Fair & interesting comments Scott; thanks for sharing.
Cost aside, which do you prefer using, TB VelocityOne or Honeycomb? I haven’t had a chance to see either irl but general feedback seems to be markedly in favour of the Honeycomb.
@@PrinceBarin77 The Honeycomb Alpha yoke doesn’t include a trim wheel or throttle but I like it more. The videos and photos don’t do the Honyecomb justice: It looks and feels fantastic. The Velocity One is great too in that it includes all you need: yoke, trim wheel and throttle controls.
I like this yoke system but, as I only fly GA (to re-live my PPL days long gone!), I'll stick with my Logitech kit for the following reasons:
1. I only fly 3 to 5 times a week so the Logitech kit is more cost effective with reduced air time usage.
2. The Logitech addon multipanel and switch panel will give me all I need for my flying (at about the same price with my yoke as the Velocity One kit)
3. As I mentioned in a comment on one of your Logitech reviews, I'm mounting the yoke beneath my desktop as it places the yoke in a better position for me and frees up needed real-estate on the desktop. (Having only 45 degree aileron control gives no problem and misses my knees!) I'll be giving further details on this (with photos) on your Discord page soon.
Many thanks for you informative reviews -very useful to draw comparisons!
Some good points there Chris - expect my annual Logitech flight yoke system video at the beginning of 2022 ;)
Thanks again for another informative video. I am curious if you have modified any of your initial custom settings from what they were two weeks ago? By the way, I just had my yoke delivered yesterday. So far I love it, a really smooth flying experience.
Hi Roger, I've not really adjusted many of the settings; most of the default settings are pretty solid I've found. Great to hear that you're also enjoying your Flight Yoke System ;)
Thank you looking forward to the livestream. Problem is they sell out super fast. I can’t get one because I am to slow on the draw lol. Hopefully one day soon. Then I can retire the hotas and boy I can hardly wait for that.
Best of luck Trey 🤞
If you hold the yoke with both hands at the same time the forward or backward movement is much smoother than if you do it with just one hand.
Agreed.
Great video as always sorry I couldn't join the vintage flight the other day and just ordered my Velocity One for my Xbox S, should be here by the end of the week and I may mod the loose top throttles if they need it
congrats! ;)
You could use some Teflon powder dry lubricant on your yoke. It should work well and not attract debris.
That sounds like a great tip 👍
Hello Jason, I have the same problem but afraid to use some lub. Is it working well after some use? or never tried yet? Thanks for your answer. From Portugal
@@joseandrade3459 I do not find much stickiness with mine after a fair bit of use.
@@Huddison I've just put some silicone oil and works great. Gonna tell you tomorrow if is still good. Just a drop with a brush ...
JUst getting used to mine but one thing is driving me nuts (well 2.) When I bank right (Sitting left seat Cessna) I slide into the right hand seat!! WTF . And when ever its plugged in , it switches off audio !!
Check the sounds icon in the taskbar to choose your audio if it switches. The former needs more investigation 🤔
Mine’s coming for Xmas, and the wait is killing me.
Lol I bet it is.
I know I’m late but try use oil or somthing smooth a small bit close to the piston part for when your pulling back to pull up or flaring it should be a bit smoother I had not done it I recommend looking at different fixes but if you want to you can try it’s
It's flaring just fine nowadays.

Just ordered one of these yesterday 😬, looking forward to your views
Hope you enjoy it!

@@100yakult I ordered direct from TB
Me too.
Good video but it would've been nice if you talked about the rotation of the yoke (does it do a full 90 degrees) and the feel of the system (does the plastic feel cheap).
I have mentioned those points in other videos I've made on the Velocity One - to me it feels solidly built.
Wonderful video - thank you! Loving my velocity one with the series x, however I bought a cheap wireless mouse and it was super laggy - I’ve returned it and now waiting for a wired mouse. Do you think that’ll solve the laggy mouse problem?
It should do - I've had no lag issues with my wired mouse.
@Reuben Greeph I bought a Logitech MK270 wireless mouse and keyboard which are both working well on my series x.
Thank you for your enthusiasm! I currently own the Thrustmaster Hotas One, which is not a yoke I agree, but so cheaper. At the moment I am more into jet fighters and the Hotas One is a must. Now is it possible to be as reactive with this Velocity yoke when you fly a fighter jet and you need instant and quick response or is it only recommended for Cessnas., airliners ? Also there is the Airbus yoke from Thrustmaster coming (for Xbox and PC). I wish you could make a second video after Christmas with this yoke to see if things have improved (new firmware and the pitch resistance issue). Talking about resistance, is it a force back yoke? Does it vibrate? Last thing maybe in your next video is to show how to map with one example such as communications or whatever and also if you could say a word on reverse thrust because there are 4 levers and two could be used for throttle, two for reverse thrust if possible?
I would stick with your Hotas One if you prefer to fly jets; Yokes are definitely more GA/Airliners orientated.
There is no Force feedback or vibration with the yoke (which is quite typical for most yokes). I shall look into reverse thrust.
@@Huddison thank you for your fast answer and your videos which are always a delight. Honestly is is worth to buy a 2500 (or more) PC compared to what an Xbox series X already gives? Mods? Other planes or helicopters? Better picture quality? I'm not sure.. But you can compare, you have both!
You're able to change many graphic settings on the PC version (like Level of details, clouds, tress, water etc etc) & have the option of installing 100s of different mods and utility programs (like Electronic flight bags etc). Also, if you wish to use a specific rudder pedals and other hardware add-ons like Multi panels etc, then the PC version is currently your best option for doing this.
If you're happy with the stock MSFS and Marketplace add-ons though, then there's no need to go beyond the Xbox version for now - hope this helps!
@@Huddison thank you for your answer! I will start saving maybe 😉 Christmas is coming but the Xbox brings me so much pleasure without CTD
Great video. Thanks for the update. This looks like a good upgrade for my PC flight sim. I use a mouse with my Logitech flight yoke to adjust headings,altitude etc. Is the mouse usable as I have it sitting between the yoke and throttle unit.
I'm not certain of what you're asking, but I use a mouse to navigate menus and adjust autopilot knobs etc, on my Xbox Series S & PC MSFS.
@@Huddison Where do you place the mouse for easy access? It seems a stretch to have the mouse on the right of this unit. Cheers
Ah - I tend to place it to the right of my yoke system, as I'm right handed - although currently with my Velocity One setup being in the place/position it is, I place my mouse to the front and slightly right.
I’ve seen a RUclipsr modding the throttle quadrant using cotton pads in the gaps to add a bit more friction
Interesting
@@Huddison Found it: He using felt pads you'd use for putting under furniture stopping them sliding on slippy surfaces for more friction, Ill share the link :) ruclips.net/video/pVqmzlR4ZC4/видео.html
@@thesn00tyfox I use the 4 throttle levers when flying Concorde - they seem fine on my unit in their default state.
@@thesn00tyfox Hotas works best for fighter jets for sure - If you can afford it, why not ;)
Will try to watch this but too bad these are not available anywhere other than eBay where they are going for nearly 700 USD (i.e. scalpers). 😣
Don't give in to them.
Yeah don’t trust eBay, you could get a horrible and out of shape flight system, I’d use Amazon
Highly useful info. I assume that when you say "GA" you really mean "single engine." And I assume the single-engine controls on this rig lack the vernier that most such aircraft have (twist to fine-tune the setting). Did I guess right?
I just received my long-awaited Xbox-s yesterday and am about to plug it in. What's the best way to purchase MSFS? I really only intend to play MSFS (I'm not a gamer). I'm thinking I'll get things working with the stock control, then empty another piggybank for this controller.
Just as an aside: I do wish YTers here would make a careful distinction between PC and Xbox implementations. They apparently aren't completely interchangeable, and I doubt that Xbox owners are likely to have or want a powerful PC to also run games.
I bought the s model Xbox because the x model is essentially unavailable at MSRP here in the USA. When stores receive a shipment, it's pre-sold in five minutes.
Yes you guess correctly on both accounts.
If you want to fly with others in MSFS (multiplayer) then I would recommend getting Gamepass - that way you can see if that playstyle suits you. Currently, you will require either Gamepass or Xbox Gold to fly with others.
"...It's a little bit sticky in the takeoff, it has loosened over the past couple of weeks..."
😎
Nice video again, just ordered one for my X-Box X, does changing the profile on the yoke display also change the profile in FS2020 ??
Also, if the sticky feeling is plastic on metal or plastic on plastic, a thin smear of silicone grease might fix it.
The sticky-ness really does subside after a bit of use; not certain whether it's plastic on metal or other.
You have to match the profile in MSFS to the one you have set up with your yoke - not a great deal to choose from currently.
@@Huddison Thanks, i asked because there are some videos that show the controls being mapped from a completely custom option on the xbox, starting from a blank profile - not sure what option that would be on the yoke menu?
@@dave-j-k It'll be worthwhile you investigating ;)
Hi Huddison - in the video you mentioned the sticky yoke improved after a few weeks. Would you know roughly how many hours that equated to? I have the sticky yoke and a few weeks later there is little to no improvement. Turtle Beach did tell me the same as you (I.e. it’s quite normal and should improve), but I’m probably at about 10 hours of usage so unsure whether this isn’t enough wearing in time or I have a rogue unit.
I would roughly estimate 20 hours of usage, for when it started to normalise for myself.
@@Huddison thank you - I’ll stick with it and thanks for the videos.
@@stu8715 Is it still sticky for you or did it eventualy go away?
@@austinpuetz7750 mine was swapped out by turtle beach and the second unit is much better. I still think there is a slight resistance there but I’ve got used to it.
This is gonna sound a bit dumb I guess, but could you not apply the tiniest drop of say,WD 40 onto the yoke shaft or is that as I said dumb. Update. You’ve just convinced me to order one lol and it’s arriving Saturday 8th.
Congrats on managing to get hold of one 🖒.
I've noticed that the shaft has lossened up with use: it feels just right for me currently.
QUESTION: Are you getting a little bit of a loose "wiggle" on your yoke where its attached just behind the yoke wheel? I'm noticing that mine wobbles when using only one hand. In addition to the fact that its made of plastic and bends slightly there is additional wiggle or rocking. I play in VR so it registers as "pretravel" in my head.
Not that I've noticed on my unit; it might be worth contacting Turtle Beach about it.
@@Huddison Thanks for your reply. Good to know. I'll contact Turtle Beach. Basically, if you look at the back of the yoke "wheel" there is a circle it fits over. There is some wiggle room in the spacing of that fitting that causes the yoke to rotate slightly back and forth especially when using one hand if you were to nose down and then nose up for example. It appears that its a minor design flaw and I expect all units have this wiggle room as well. I also noticed that the piston will be extra sticky simply from the weight of the yoke. If I lift up on the yoke slightly when flaring I find that its much smoother. To me, this explains why its smoother pushing in vs pulling out for lack of better words lol ;)
Thanks Daniel, that would explain the sticky pitch axis.
Why does the world view , spin clockwise , non stop so you can not find an airport to choose to make a flight plan As soon as you click on it the world starts spinning very fast and doesn't stop until you exit the program .
Dear Huddison,
First I would like to thank you very much for your extremely nice videos and very detailed explanations.
Since yesterday I have also one Velocity and in fact I am very satisfied with it. However I have a problem and would like to ask you for your help. I never have used a trim wheel before and I was very happy to have it now on Velocity, especially after you were so delighted about it.
The problem is that when I have set default mode on the yoke and in options that the plane react extremely strong on very, very slight move of the wheel and the plane flies down independent on fact whether I turned it up or down.
If I have default mode on yoke and a new profile in options then the trim wheel react much easier but in no way there is a possibility to set a stable position and the wheel have to be moved all the time down and up if I want a more or less stable height. If I live the yoke and trim wheel for some seconds the plane starts to fly down.
Probably I do not understand the trim wheel function and do something wrong. Hopefully the yoke is OK. Maybe you can advise me how to solve the problem?
Thank you in advance!
Regards from Warsaw!
Hi Zoki, the wind can affect level flight (i.e. it can push your aircraft up or down in altitude), so depending on what weather conditions you have set up, this might be affecting your general altitude stability.
You may find this video useful: ruclips.net/video/y-bli374D8s/видео.html - in that video, I show how you can set sensitivities to your trim wheel, to make it some what less reactive.
Lastly, feel free to join our discord; lots of experienced people in there who can help you with your flight adventures :)
Yeah I'm having a similar problem - if I look at the cockpit trim wheel it glitches up or down with slight movement causing the aircraft (cessna 152) to violently nose up or down and it then slowly rotates back to the original position so it's not possible to apply trim and have it hold a position. The slider in the control setup shows that the trim wheel is responding fine so it doesn't seem to be the wheel at fault but in game it's glitchy as all hell. The sensitivity settings made no difference for me. I'm not sure what's going on with this at all.
Ha! Sorted it. Another comment further down mentioned the Assistance Options....checked through and under 'Piloting' there is 'AI auto trim'. Turned that off (along with a bunch of other 'easy' settings in there) and that fixed it. I did feel like it was something in software fighting the trim wheel settings. Artificial Intelligence=oxymoron!
@@Huddison Dear Haddison,
Thank you very much for fast response and help. Using your advice it is somewhat better now but for sure I have to exercise much more.
Tomorrow I’ll try to apply the advice from Gravityboots.
Best regards to all!
Have a nice evening!
@@galaxyboots Yes, your advice in combination with sensitivity fine tuning helped and my Cesna doesn’t have a Boeing MAX “syndrome” at trimming anymore. Thank you both very much for your support. Regards!
Trying to learn the buttons on day 1
Well mine arrived a day early and I’ve already managed a small flight and altered some buttons etc with your invaluable help. Very very pleased so far but I’m having a tiny bit of trouble steering the aircraft (Cessna) on the ground, it doesn’t seem as responsive as I presume it should be. Do you have any suggestions I could try. Thanks in advance.
Just ruling out the obvious: are you using the rudder/triggers to taxi on the ground?
@@Huddison Hi. Yes I am. The plane starts to turn but then it just goes off in any direction. Am I pressing the rudder buttons to hard perhaps? Thanks for your quick response btw. I’m still super happy with it though.
@@littlenemo14 Try turning off (or on) some of the options in 'Piloting' in the Assistance options, see if that helps.
@@Huddison Thanks a lot. When I press the rudder buttons, the throttle goes high and then the plane runs away with me lol. It’s very strange. Thanks again for your help.
@@Huddison brilliant. Thanks so much. I now have control of the plane now. I switched off all in piloting assistant and it’s sorted. Just need to find out which one I need to keep off. Thanks again.
Worthed 350$??
Every penny/cent IMO.
I hoped you would demonstrate the rudder controls and the other yoke functions. Does the trim have a take-off indent?
Yes I missed the rudders, but they are great & adaptive. I don't see/feel a take-off indent on the trim wheel.
Do yu find the led screen too small ? Otherwise another option to add to inventory - oh my !
The led screen seems the perfect size, even for my weak eyes.
Trying to figure out the buttons.
I just got the Honeycomb Bravo, which is obviously spectacular. But I think there's a lot to like about the Turtle Beach throttle quadrant... especially since it has the push pulls AND levers, it's pretty flexible. Too bad it can't be stand-alone, it would be a good budget option for people who fly a lot of Cessna etc. (like me.) But I couldn't give up the Honeycomb yoke for the Velocity One.
Yeah I have a suspicion (no evidence, just seems to be...) that the Velocity One trim wheel is a bit better too. It just seems like an all around good middle-ground all in one option. If it was a few bucks cheaper, I could probably live with it!
I guess what I'm saying is, it looks lovely and in isolation, I would probably have bought it for $350 instead of $500 for my Honeycomb setup... but it came out too late! By the time the Velocity One was out I already had the Alpha yoke... ignorance would have been bliss, but the money's been paid and I'm already in love. Turtle Beach is that lovely girl that just came around at the wrong time for me.
One thing that bothers me is that fairly useless screen on the yoke. It could have done some cool stuff, but its mostly a waste. How much did that bump up the price? Gimme a Velocity One without the wonky screen for $250!
Yeah and the RGB lights, I mean come on... RGB lights are for teenagers and people too much money, don't bloat the price of a nice flight control system with extraneous junk that does nothing but make nice pics to impress the PC bros with.
The dual hats and triggers are REALLY nice flexible options.
boeing yoke set is much better... even though you need a 2nd throttle unit to have full set up, its well worth it
The stickiness of the pitch control may not be due to a mechanical issue but instead a digitation issue, i.e., too low of a resolving resolution. In comparison the Honeycomb Alpha yoke appears to have a superior resolving resolution by a factor of seven for sensing pitch. And to a lesser extent more linear as well.
For further details see: ruclips.net/video/9zwNr91WMz4/видео.html
However the narrator does wonder if he received a defective Velocity One Yoke or is the problem systemic? More testing is needed!
Do you still need to use the xbox controller as a mouse or pointer or you can program one of the velocityone hat buttons?
Unfortunately, ou still require an Xbox controller or mouse for now.
Thanks a lot. Claudio
hello i have a problem with my thrust lever. The thrust lever trembles in the MSFS2020. Do you maybe know how to fix this?
I've not personally encountered this issue; which thrust lever are you referring to - the top lever or push/pull one?
You can try adjusting the sensitivities in controls options to see if that will help.
@@Huddison It's about a different thrust lever. It's about the one who is with the Logitech X52 Pro. Sorry I forgot to write this about it. I have already tried to change the sensitivity settings but that did not help
Join the Discord (link in the description - many brains there who have solved similar issues ;)
@@Huddison ok i will join your Server. Thanks
Hi, has there been a fix solution published for the loose throttle levers?
I linked a possible solution in this video.
@@Huddison Ok, I will take a look again... and thanks for the review on this item! My Sim platform is currently MS 2020 (on PC), and I recently bought a Honeycomb flight yoke. Had I been aware of pre-release info on the Velocity One system, I would have waited a bit longer! However, I still may invest in one at some point, as surely it would cost less to go this route, as opposed to buying separate flight yoke and throttle quadrant. And of course, there's also the beauty of being able to operate an elevator trim control wheel with your own hand!🙂
I returned mine.
It is an unfinished product.
The yoke is a little sticky, the panel behind it is not active (always lit and not indicating anything at all). The throttle leavers have practically no resistance, they feel cheap and nasty. The switch panel underneath them is always lit so, again, You have no indication of what’s switched on or off.
This is a beta product, and I am sic and tired of the gaming industry using us gamers as paying Beta testers.
They are promising to implement the panel but, they relay on Microsoft to do so and, with the amount of bugs MSFS has, they have their hands full trying to resolve them… never mind trying to implement third party peripherals. So, it could easily take several moths before the light panels work if at all. All in, not worth half the price they are asking for. Not as it is right now.
I agree that they should've ensured that all the features were fully implemented before releasing it - I believe the Honeycomb throttle quadrant, also had features (like the lighting) not implemented on release (somebody correct me, if I'm wrong on this).
@@Huddison Well, i knows why they have released it as is… To the tune of Mariah Carey… All they want for Xmas is cash innnnnnn. ;)
I know you can use the triggers on the yoke but can I use pedals for the rudder WITH this?
On Xbox, you have to have the T-flight pedals plugged into the Hotas 4 to use them - on PC just plug a set of rudders into a usb port on your PC & away you go.
I just forgot to mention, that I use Xbox/X
Do you happen to know if you can add Saitek or other expansion components with Velocity One wile using the Xbox?
Do you mean peripherals like the Multi panel? No, not currently whilst flying on the Xbox.
Mine is drifting to the left in clear skies. Any ideas of what could be going on?
It may have something to do with your Assistance Options settings - these all reset to easy after the last update.
Hello,
Do we know if we can program this on xbox so you don’t have to use the xbox controller as a mouse? Can one of the hats on the velocity one can take place of the xbox pointer?
I've not found a way as of yet, but watch my latest video on how to set up most autopilot knobs to switches/buttons: ruclips.net/video/_CC2Zm6jtSc/видео.html
Can you use the bind the throttle levers and use them for flaps, landing gear and parking brake?
Definitely flaps, as I've tried that myself; I'm not quite sure why you would want parking brake and landing gear bound to them, but I guess that would be possible.
@@Huddison Parking brake for checklist process. Release the parking brake, set the parking brake. If you're using the sim to set a rhythm between flights and exercise the checklist even though out of place the motion and ability to fail provide the mental exercise needed. If you're flying a retractable gear aircraft, it's nice to have a lever to raise and lower the gear. I didn't see one built into the Turtle Beach, there is for example one built into the Honeycomb system.
Of course, the user can also just buy a Logitech G pro flight switch panel.
There is value recreating as many actions as possible. Yes, they can all be done with a mouse and keyboard, but???
Thanks for getting back to me.
@@ThorinOakenshieldGSD2023 Yes I can see how binding Landing Gear to one of the levers may be beneficial.
Is it possible to turn knobs/zoom onto plane devices using just this device?
That's not a bad idea - you could use one of the 4 hat switches to do that.
Nice Video!:( But why would you film with such unbelievble bad Lightning?:D its literally the most important when filming. Most parts are just dark, black and grainy:P
Yes lesson learned there.
I need to get either the Yoke or the Stick to try Flight Sim on my Xbox Series X and now there will be a sale and the Yoke is only 50% more than the stick....
I already have a playseat as I have been playing racing games for many years and that could turn me to the Yoke but I'm not sure if it's important compared to just placing the stick on the table.
It'll all come down to preference: which do you prefer?
The yoke would offer more immersion.

Thanks
Rudder pedals won't plug into the Velocity One - it has triggers which act as the rudders.
Ok thanks
Hello if I connect the turtle beach velocity one then I can no longer control the autopilot. I'll finish it all back to normal. Have used the proposed solution. Attach a video, hope you can help me despair already.
This video might be of use to you: ruclips.net/video/6paEiCoOJ5w/видео.html
Is the throttle stand-alone / can you buy only the throttle?
Not currently, I don't believe.
is there ruble in the yoke?
No, but the majority of yokes (even on PC) don't have rumble/force feedback.
The big question, is will it get loose enough to be an issue at any point?
What part of it?
@@Huddison Mainly the Yoke part. If it frees up over time, is there soon going to come a point it's too free?
The Saitek yoke comparison (and it is a Saitek originally) doesn't mention the huge deadzones in each axis. They are not tweakable and the only solution is to buy and install, with some difficulty, a third party chip with better software that gets rid of the deadzones completely. I find the Saitek yoke unusable because of this and literally threw it away. It is not good enough for the Velocity One makers to say the yoke will bed in after a few weeks. It should be silky smooth on the first day. The levers on the Quadrant WILL loosen. It's inevitable. Turtle Beach should ALREADY have placed rubber strips in the mechanism. This is yet another poorly made device that will not last and I predict there will be a consumer backlash once the PR hype dies down.
