Honeycomb Aeronautical has announced the release of the Alpha Flight Controls Lite, a new entry-level yoke designed to make flight simulation more accessible to newcomers and casual simmers.
The Lite range is a new product line that complements Honeycomb’s existing flagship hardware. With the Alpha Flight Controls Lite, the team has streamlined the design to focus on essential controls, delivering the same high-quality build and realism Honeycomb is known for, but in a more approachable package.
The unit features authentic switches and controls, including a POV switch, two rocker switches, and four programmable buttons, giving simmers flexibility without overwhelming complexity. Its 180° yoke rotation and solid steel shaft provide smooth and accurate control inputs, while the precise elevator and aileron response ensures manoeuvres feel lifelike.
The Alpha Flight Controls Lite unit is now available to purchase across the globe at the Honeycomb Aeronautical webshop at a price of €199,99 / £169.99 / $199.99.
