Xbox Wireless Yoke/Joystick

Currently there aren’t many options for peripherals on Xbox. The Xbox ecosystem doesn’t allow for a lot of manufacturers to license their product for “Xbox compatibility”.

HoneyComb Aeronautics makes their Alpha yoke and Bravo Throttle quadrant. It’s a great piece of kit but the company has had some troubles of late. You can search the forums to read that thread.
The only other options I’m aware of as a yoke on Xbox is the Turtle Beach Velocity One and the Thrustmaster Boeing Yoke. I personally love my TB V1 yoke and rudders. The rudders are much better quality than the yoke, but they are fantastic for GA, Light jets and airliners. The yoke just has a plasticy flimsy feel to it compared to the HoneyComb. There are some mods people have mentioned in the Velocity One thread that do help. I do love my rudders however, they are very smooth and have nice brake functionality. I also like the vernier throttles/controls (push/pull) on the TBV1 as the honeycomb doesn’t have those.

Same goes for HOTAS’ they are limited. There is one from Turtle Beach and two different options from thrustmaster. The Airbus side stick and the HOTAS one x. I have gone through many of the HOTAS One X’s. They get drift and start to flicker movements overtime. Unfortunately there aren’t any quality/high end sticks currently available for Xbox. I’m a helisimmer and I’d love Turtle Beach to make a collective. Hence another reason to move to PC for me. Better peripherals (like Virpil / Gladiater VKB / Higher end Thrusmaster Warthog.) and more options for tinkering.

Here are some links to get you looking in the right direction. You can Have a read below and to the thread linked for the description of Graphics and quality on Xbox after SU15. I’d hate to taint your otherwise positive thread. :wink:
