Now incorporating independently adjustable axis clutch dampers which were first introduced on our flagship VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Flightstick Base, the WarBRD-D Base now also benefits from the same tunability. The clutches can be adjusted to suit a wide range of applications - from completely disengaged for fast, raw inputs, to semi-damped to prevent centering-oscillations and assisting steady aim, to fully locked to keep the stick from returning to the center. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor convenience, the top cover allows direct access to the clutches, allowing on-the-fly fine tuning.

These high quality clutches can be adjusted to apply a light force on the axis allowing you to more easily apply steady and precise control to the flightstick, minimising the risk of unintended deviations. Smoothly lining up a target, or coming in for aerial refuelling has just become easier!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clutches can be adjusted further to even hold the flightstick in position after being released. This allows for helicopter pilots to apply a lighter touch and easier control of rotary wing aircraft without fighting the return force of a typical flightstick. This feature also brings exciting possibilities for our space-sim pilots - in dual stick cockpits, the clutches can be independently adjusted to allow the flightstick to stay in position along the Y axis, perfect for engine control duty, while allowing the X axis to be adjusted for other inputs!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Base has a smaller deflection angle from the center versus the VPC WarBRD Base, this allows it to maintain a practical and comfortable arc length even when using long extensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base mechanism features a premium all-metal construction, using high quality, high strength D16T duralumin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VPC MongoosT-50CM3 has independently adjustable axes, with 3 spring weights and 5 cam profiles provided with every base.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VIRPIL Controls","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53346838544650,"sku":"VPC-109-001","price":389.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/8264\/3722\/files\/VPC-109-CM3_2025_01.jpg?v=1783725561"},{"product_id":"atlas-ffb-base","title":"ATLAS Base","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFLIGHT SIMULATION JUST GOT REAL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VPC ATLAS (Advanced Tactile Loading Axis System) is the highly anticipated force feedback base from VIRPIL Controls.
