R1-LEGEND Rudder Pedals

 

Introducing the next generation of rudder pedals! 

Building on our hugely popular VPC ACE Rudder Pedals, the R1 series brings improvements to every area; heavier duty construction perfect for both desktop and simpit setups, ultra stable floor plate to prevent tipping, infinitely adjustable spring tension controlled easily with a twist dial, quick swap cams, wider range of pedal position adjustments, USB/OUT connectivity to daisy chain devices, and of course the option to be upgraded with our proven rudder axis damper for those looking for the ultimate pedal feel! 

Featuring a full-foot combat style all metal pedals based on the legendary warbird design. The pedal length can be adjusted to suit different foot sizes with an optional foot strap to keep your in total control at all time! The angle of the foot pedals can also be adjusted based on preferences or for comfort in different setups.

Featuring all metal construction, cam centering mechanism and cast aluminium footplates with an all new large floor plate, the VPC R1 Rudder Pedals provide an incredibly solid and enjoyable rudder input experience!

By utilising the latest VPC electronics, including our high precision contactless digital sensors with input accuracy of 0.02 degrees, the VPC R1-LEGEND Rudder Pedals offer a new level of rudder input precision.

The VPC R1 Rudder Pedals mechanism features swappable cams and springs to allow each VIRPIL the ability to customise the response to their preferences.

Upgrade your R1 pedals with the optional damper kit - this kit reduces the spring bounce when returning to center and can be configured to hold the pedals in place!

Swappable Axis Cams

Hard Center Cams
• Provides a strong, tactile center marker ensuring you can always find the center point without overshooting.

Soft Center Cams (Pre-Installed)
• Reduces the detent when crossing the center point allowing for more delicate and precise maneuvering directly around the center point, but still leaving enough force to accurately find the center position. 

No Center Cams
• Removes the detent entirely when crossing the center point allowing for incredible accuracy around the center and suits those who are using the damper upgrade kit to prevent the pedals from centering for a smooth response over the entire axis range.

Swappable Axis Springs

Heavy Spring
• Provides a strong centering tension for increased feel and realism.

Standard Spring
• Reduced centering spring tension allowing for faster and less fatiguing inputs.

The centering spring can be adjusted further with the twist dial to suit your preferences!

Adjustable Pedal Angle

You can adjust the resting pedal angle of the R1-Legend footplates by 20 degrees to provide the perfect ergonomics for your setup!

Full Metal Footplates

The R1 Legend Footplates are made completely out of metal, with an optional heavy duty strap for superior feel, immersion and durability!
