Verdict for MSFS
The Honeycomb Lima Flight Chair suits simmers who fly at a desk with the yoke or stick clamped to it, and its locking casters stop you rolling back when you push a rudder pedal. It has no control mounts, so the yoke and throttle stay on the desk.

Pros & Cons for MSFS
Strengths
- The casters lock, so the chair stays put instead of creeping backward when you stand on the left pedal in a crosswind landing.
- Height, armrests, headrest and recline all adjust, so you can set the seat to meet your desk-clamped yoke and lean back into the headrest during a long cruise leg.
- It suits the simmer who flies from a normal desk rather than a cockpit, and since a chair doesn't plug into anything it works the same with MSFS 2024 on PC, Xbox Series X|S or PS5.
Trade-offs
- There are no mounts of any kind, so your yoke and throttle stay clamped to the desk and your pedals stay loose on the floor; if you want controls held at fixed positions, this isn't that.
- The next step up in price buys a frame with a place for every control, so nothing shifts when you haul back in the flare, and Honeycomb doesn't state a user-weight rating here; it's also sold by a camera store that asked more than Honeycomb's own store when we checked, so compare before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it a good place to fly MSFS?
Yes, if you fly MSFS 2024 at a desk, and it scores 54.5/100 for this sim. It shines as a seat you can set up around controls you already have clamped down: lock the casters, set the height, and your feet stay planted on the pedals through an approach. It shows its limits the moment you want the yoke and pedals held in place by the seat itself, because nothing mounts to it.
Is it worth the price for MSFS?
For the money you are buying a seat and its adjustments, not a flying position, so weigh it against a stand that holds your controls and lets you keep the chair you own. Spend more and you move toward a full cockpit with a place for the yoke, throttle and pedals; spend less and you keep flying from whatever chair is already at the desk.
Which controls fit on it?
Nothing mounts to it: your yoke or stick and throttle stay clamped to the desk, and the pedals sit on the floor. If the desk puts the yoke too high, an under-desk clamp brings it down to about elbow height.
How much room does it need?
It takes about a chair's footprint, so it slots in wherever your desk chair already lives. Honeycomb pitches it for office work as well as flying, so it can be your everyday desk chair too.
What else do I need with it?
You still need the controls themselves plus a desk solid enough to take the clamps, since the chair holds nothing. Set the seat height so your forearms sit level with the yoke before you fly, and put a mat under the pedals so they don't slide away on a hard floor.
