Virpil WarBRD Extra Heavy Springs

VIRPIL Controls · VPC WarBRD Base · Heavy Spring Set VPC WarBRD Base Heavy Spring Set Introduced by popular demand, this extra heavy spring set steps up the centering force of your VPC WarBRD base. It delivers around 50 percent stronger centering than the heavy springs supplied with the WarBRD base, which makes a real difference when you run heavy grips or long stick extensions that need a firmer return to centre. Note that because of the increased force, this set is intended for hard-mounted setups, not loose desktop use.

It is the firmest WarBRD spring option for pilots who want a stronger return to centre. Who is it for?+ It is aimed at pilots running heavy grips or long stick extensions. The added mass of those setups benefits from a stronger centering force so the stick returns to centre crisply rather than feeling soft. Can I use it on a desktop base that is not bolted down?+ It is not recommended. Because the centering force is significantly higher, VIRPIL advises against loose desktop use. This set is best on a hard-mounted base so the extra force does not move the base around. Which base does it fit?+ It is made for the VPC WarBRD base family. Our stocked base is the VPC WarBRD-D Base. If you want to confirm fitment for your exact WarBRD variant, contact us before ordering. What if I want the widest adjustment range instead?+ VIRPIL notes that the VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Base offers the widest range of adjustment with the strongest potential centering force of their gimbal bases. If you are weighing up options, we can talk you through the difference. Is it hard to fit?+ It is a standard spring swap on the WarBRD base using the supplied instructions. VIRPIL also publishes a WarBRD base guide on their support centre. Is it covered by warranty in Australia?+ Yes. Every VIRPIL product is backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty.
