Virpil VPC FLNKR Grip (Russian Labels)

Flightstick Grip — Combat — Russian Fighter VPC FLNKR Grip VIRPIL's most advanced flight grip to date. The VPC FLNKR Flightstick Grip is meticulously modelled on the controls of a modern Russian fighter jet, built from a premium cold-touch metal body, with a unique metal 3-trigger module and brake lever, a contactless analogue stick, swappable hat modules, authentic laser-engraved Cyrillic (Russian) labels and two programmable RGB LEDs. Official Australian and New Zealand VIRPIL Distributor Requires a VIRPIL flightstick base, sold separately. The FLNKR is a grip module that mounts to a VIRPIL flightstick base such as the VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Base or the VPC WarBRD-D Base. It cannot be used on its own. Not sure which base to pair it with?

Why FLNKR The ultimate combat fighter grip. — Replica modern Russian fighter grip Meticulously designed after the controls found in modern Russian fighter jets, giving you a genuine taste of what it's like to fly a real fighter from your own cockpit. — Premium cold-touch metal grip body A lightweight cold-touch metal body that feels like more than a controller, delivering the weight, finish and durability you expect from VIRPIL's flagship grip. — Unique metal 3-trigger module and brake lever A 3-trigger module not seen before: a primary single-stage trigger designed to work with autopilot systems, a dual-stage weapon-systems flip trigger, and a single-stage front flip trigger, all made from metal, alongside a metal brake lever. — Contactless digital brake lever axis The brake lever is a true analogue axis read by a contactless digital sensor, giving you proportional, wear-free control over wheel braking and other mapped functions. — Contactless digital analogue stick The next-generation Hall-effect analogue stick module delivers ultimate precision with minimal deadzones, ideal for TDC slew and sensor management. — Swappable button and hat modules Included swappable hats let you tailor the grip: fit an aircraft-accurate momentary thumb button or a versatile 4-way + push thumb hat, and convert the 2-way switches to 4-way, all without tools. — Authentic laser-engraved Cyrillic labels This is the Cyrillic-label version, with true-to-life Russian-jet button labels laser engraved into the metal grip body, not printed or stuck on, for lasting realism and quality. — Two programmable RGB LEDs Two built-in RGB LEDs can be set to any colour to reflect real-time button or shift states in the VPC Configuration Tool, or aircraft system indicators using the VPC Link Tool. 3-trigger module Three metal triggers, one brake lever. A trigger setup not seen before All-metal construction The FLNKR's unique 3-trigger module combines a primary single-stage trigger designed to work with autopilot systems, a dual-stage weapon-systems flip trigger for staged weapon release, and a single-stage front flip trigger, with a metal brake lever for proportional braking. Every trigger is machined from metal for a crisp, positive action that matches the realism of the grip. Swappable modules Configure the grip your way. Included swappable hats No tools required Want an aircraft-accurate momentary thumb button, or a highly versatile 4-way + push thumb hat instead? Want to convert the 2-way switches to 4-way? The FLNKR comes with swappable input hats so you can tailor the grip to your exact preferences, switching between the pre-installed and alternate configurations to suit each aircraft. Ultimate precision Contactless digital sensors. Both the analogue stick and the brake lever axis use VIRPIL's contactless digital sensing, the next-generation Hall-effect technology that reads inputs with no physical contact. That means minimal deadzones, no potentiometer drift and no wear over time, so the FLNKR stays precise and reliable for the life of the grip. Requires a base Mounts to a VIRPIL flightstick base.

Yes, the FLNKR is a grip module, not a complete flightstick. It mounts to a VIRPIL flightstick base, which is sold separately. The base provides the gimbal and the USB connection to your PC. Which bases is it compatible with? It mounts to VIRPIL flightstick bases using the standard VIRPIL grip connector, including the VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Base and the VPC WarBRD-D Base. If you're unsure whether your base is compatible, give us a call and we'll confirm. What's the difference between Cyrillic and English labels? The FLNKR is offered with either true-to-life Cyrillic button labels for maximum Russian-jet realism, or English labels for easier reference. Either way the labels are laser engraved into the metal grip body rather than printed or stuck on. Choose the version you prefer when ordering. What is the 3-trigger module? It's a unique all-metal trigger assembly with a primary single-stage trigger (designed to work with autopilot systems), a dual-stage weapon-systems flip trigger, and a single-stage front flip trigger, plus a metal brake lever. It gives you a realistic, multi-stage trigger setup for combat flying. Can I change the hats and buttons? Yes. The FLNKR includes swappable hat modules so you can fit an aircraft-accurate momentary thumb button or a 4-way + push thumb hat, and convert the 2-way switches to 4-way, letting you move between the pre-installed and alternate input configurations. What do the RGB LEDs do? The two built-in RGB LEDs can be set to any colour and configured to reflect real-time button or shift states in the VPC Configuration Tool, or to act as aircraft system indicators using the VPC Link Tool. Do I need any drivers or software? No drivers are required, as the grip is recognised through your base as a standard USB HID device. For advanced configuration, including button mapping, shift states and the RGB LEDs, the free VPC Configuration Suite is available from the VIRPIL support portal.
