9/10 VPC WarBRD-D Base
Buyers entering the Virpil ecosystem who want adjustable damping and duralumin quality without the flagship base price.
Virpil's compact, popular spring-cam base and the affordable way into the VPC ecosystem. The 'D' revision inherits the flagship MongoosT-50's independently adjustable axis clutch dampers, so you can run the stick fully free for raw inputs, semi-damped to steady your aim, or fully locked. It uses an aircraft-grade duralumin gimbal and a 14-bit native-resolution contactless sensor (0.02-degree detection), and every cam set now ships in the box. Swapping springs/cams means partial disassembly, which is the main usability gripe.
