Does the Honeycomb Bravo work on Xbox Series X|S?

Short answer

Yes, but only with this chain:

Bravo → Honeycomb Xbox Hub → Alpha XPC → Xbox Series X|S (or Xbox One)

You need the Alpha Flight Controls XPC and the Honeycomb Xbox Hub.
The original (non-XPC) Alpha does not unlock Xbox, even with the Hub.
Bravo alone into the console: no.
Bravo into a Thrustmaster yoke on Xbox: not a Honeycomb-documented path. Do not plan on it.

Axes often work once the chain is right. Annunciator lights and some switch bindings may be partial. Verify every binding in MSFS Controls before you buy assuming full feature parity.

The only supported Honeycomb Xbox chain

Honeycomb documents one Xbox path for Bravo:

Plug Bravo into a USB-A port on the Xbox Hub.
Connect the Hub’s USB-C out to the Alpha XPC.
Connect the Alpha XPC to the Xbox.

That is the collection designed for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. Per Honeycomb, the Hub “can only be used in combination with the Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls XPC and Xbox.”

Charlie rudder pedals can share that same Hub (see below). Nothing else substitutes for the XPC yoke.

What the Xbox Hub is

The Honeycomb Xbox Hub is a small pass-through box, not a standalone Xbox peripheral.

Port	Role
USB-C out	To the Alpha XPC
2× USB-A in	For Bravo and Charlie

Without the Alpha XPC on the other end, the Hub does nothing useful on Xbox. It exists so Bravo and Charlie can ride with the XPC as one system.

Charlie pedals on the same Hub

Yes. With Alpha XPC + Hub, you can connect Bravo and Charlie together as one Honeycomb Xbox system.

Chain:

Charlie ─┐
         ├→ Xbox Hub → Alpha XPC → Xbox
Bravo   ─┘

Combos that do NOT work

Skip these. They are common wrong buys and AI-confused answers:

Bravo alone into Xbox USB - not supported.
Bravo + Hub + original (non-XPC) Alpha - Hub does not make non-XPC Alpha Xbox-compatible.
Bravo plugged into a Thrustmaster TCA Boeing yoke on Xbox - not a Honeycomb-documented Xbox path. Thrustmaster’s Boeing Xbox path lists Thrustmaster quadrants and pedals, not Bravo.
Assuming Hub “upgrades” any Honeycomb yoke - only Alpha XPC.

If you already own a non-XPC Alpha for PC, plan to keep Bravo on PC, or budget for Alpha XPC + Hub for Xbox.

Known caveats

Treat Xbox Bravo as partial until you verify, not full feature parity.

Throttle axes: often report working through the Hub.
Annunciator lights: historically flaky on Xbox in forum reports and Hub reviews. Do not buy expecting every light to behave like PC.
Some switch bindings: may need remapping or may not expose the same way as on PC. Check MSFS Controls after setup.

Sources for the caveat pattern include Honeycomb Hub customer reviews and Flight Simulator forum threads on XPC / Xbox. Always re-check current maker notes on flyhoneycomb.com before you commit.

Before you fly: connect the full chain, launch MSFS, open Controls, and confirm axes, switches, and lights for your aircraft.

PC / Mac / X-Plane note

On PC and Mac, Bravo works without the Xbox Hub. That is the normal multi-sim path (MSFS, X-Plane, and other titles your OS supports).

Xbox is the odd one out: Hub + Alpha XPC required. If you fly both console and desktop, you can use Bravo on PC without the Hub, then rebuild the Xbox chain when you move to Series X|S.

FAQ

Does Bravo work on Xbox by itself?

No. You need Alpha XPC and the Honeycomb Xbox Hub in the chain above.

Do I need the Alpha XPC?

Yes. The Hub is only for use with Alpha XPC on Xbox. No XPC, no supported Bravo Xbox path.

Does the Hub work with the original Alpha?

No. Non-XPC Alpha stays PC/Mac. The Hub does not unlock Xbox for it.

Yes. Alpha XPC + Hub is designed so Bravo and Charlie can connect as one system to Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One.

Will Bravo lights work on Xbox?

Maybe partially. Forum and review reports say lights and some bindings can be incomplete. Say partial / verify in Controls. Do not assume PC-like lights.

Can I use Bravo with a Thrustmaster yoke on Xbox?

Not as a maker-documented Xbox path. Stick to Honeycomb’s chain, or use Thrustmaster’s own Xbox quadrant path with Thrustmaster gear.
