Frequently asked questions

Will this adapter fit my chair?+

The adapter is designed to fit a wide range of standard desk chairs using existing mounting points on the chair base. It has adjustable positioning to line up with different hole patterns. However VIRPIL cannot guarantee compatibility with every desk chair model — please check that your chair base has accessible mounting holes before ordering. If you are unsure, call us on 0488 385 870 and we can help you assess compatibility.

Which collective bases does this mount support?+

The Chair Mount Collective Base Adapter is compatible with the VPC Rotor TCS Base and the VPC Rotor TCS Plus Base. These are VIRPIL's dedicated helicopter collective controllers.

How does the adapter attach to the chair?+

The adapter mounts to the front and rear of your existing chair base using the included DIN 912 M6 screws and spacers. The bracket position is adjustable via corner holes on the plate to suit different chair geometries and seat distances.

Can I also mount a control panel to the collective on this adapter?+

This adapter mounts the Rotor TCS collective base to your chair. To also attach a VPC Control Panel to the collective arm itself, you need the separate Collective Base Control Panel Mount Adapter — a different product that attaches to the side of the TCS base.

Is this covered by a warranty?+

Yes — all VIRPIL products are backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty. As the official Australian VIRPIL distributor, Player1 Sim Gear handles warranty claims locally — no international returns required. Call 0488 385 870 if you have an issue.

Why buy from Player1 Sim Gear rather than directly from VIRPIL overseas?+

Buying from us means your warranty is honoured locally, you receive a valid Australian GST tax invoice, you're protected under Australian Consumer Law, and you can call a real person on 0488 385 870 if anything goes wrong.
