Virpil Controls WarBRD-D Base

Duralumin Metal Construction • Dual-Cam Mechanism • Adjustable Axis Damping • Modular Springs & Cams

The Virpil WarBRD-D Base is built for pilots who demand uncompromising precision, durability, and full control over their flight hardware. Designed for both desktop and cockpit setups, this compact yet extremely robust base delivers smooth, accurate input response with a wide range of customisation options — ideal for civilian aircraft, space sims, and fast-paced combat jets.

Premium Duralumin Construction

The entire housing is made from high-grade Duralumin metal, offering exceptional rigidity and long-term durability.
The solid mechanical structure ensures zero-play movement, stable centering, and reliable performance even under heavy use.

Independent, Adjustable Axis Dampers

Both axes feature separately adjustable clutch-style dampers, allowing you to fine-tune return resistance to match your flying style:

• Light, free-moving stick travel

• Firm and centred for precise aircraft control

• Or anywhere in between

This flexibility is ideal for pilots who fly multiple aircraft types and want the stick to feel different depending on the mission.

Dual-Cam Mechanism – Smooth & Precise

Each axis uses Virpil’s refined dual-cam system, providing:

• Predictable, even centering forces

• Smooth travel without sudden jumps

• High consistency during dynamic manoeuvres

Perfect for aerobatics, formation flying, dogfighting, or high-G combat scenarios.

Custom Springs & Cam Profiles Included

Adjust the force curve and centering behaviour to suit your preferred aircraft or grip:

• Multiple spring options

• Interchangeable cam profiles

• Fine mechanical tuning for every flight style

With the top-mounted adjustment access, you can make changes quickly — even after installation.

High-Resolution Digital Sensors

The WarBRD-D Base uses precise, long-life digital sensors to capture even the smallest stick movements.
This ensures clean input signals, excellent control authority, and accurate response across all flight simulations.

Flexible Connectivity (USB / OUT)

The integrated USB/OUT port supports both direct PC connection and daisy-chaining additional Virpil hardware, helping you keep your cockpit wiring neat and organised.

Ideal for Desktop or Full Cockpit Rigs

With its compact footprint and universal mounting compatibility, the WarBRD-D fits perfectly on:

• Desktop mounts

• Virpil desk mounts

• Cockpit frames

• Custom flight rigs
