Well, its been a while and these things are highly subjective. I tested it to the extend that I tried to map all the functions I need to look around and then ran out of buttons on the Honeycomb. That being said, I need all the options on my yoke: look around, zoom in and out, adjust pilot position up down forward and back, reset view, etc. etc. If you dont need all those, you might be good !
My recommendation is to do what I did: order one, try it and should you find out it doesnt work for you, send it back.

Would you mind sharing a picture or a diagram of your setup? One factor that I like about Scenario 2 is that one of the panels can be mounted to the yoke and the others can be mounted to other panels. If I keep my beloved VelocityOne and get two panels (radio and switch) then I can have them next to the yoke and I think I’ll be fine.
[ radio ] [ yoke ]
[ switch ] [ yoke ] [ throttle ]
Do the panels have a way to temporarily mount to a desk? I have to move my V1F when I’m not using it since I don’t have a dedicated spot.
Thats one of the great flaws of the VelocityOne: You cant mount anything on top and the surface is curved. You COULD probably rig something up and leave the top plate off - thats what I now do to put a tablet on top of the V1 (not showsn in this picture)
I really like the Logitech panels but if you dont mount them on something like the Logitech yoke or the Honeycomb Bravo, you have to come up with something yourself. In my case I used some screws and parts from an old monitor mount to put together something to mount the panels. Its non-invasive but I was lucky I had the parts.
Oh and ignore the HOTAS stick in the back, thats not part of the MSFS setup. I was just too lazy to put them away.
