What's in the bundle
Everything included — ready to fly out of the box.
VPC WarBRD-D Flightstick Base
The latest WarBRD evolution — now with independently adjustable axis clutch dampers identical to those on the flagship MongoosT-50CM3. Tune each axis from fully free to semi-damped or fully locked. Full cam and spring kit included per base.
VPC Constellation ALPHA-R Prime Grip
Right-hand ALPHA Prime grip developed with the space-sim community. Versatile control layout ideal for combat, exploration, and everything in between.
VPC Constellation ALPHA-L Prime Grip
Left-hand mirror of the ALPHA Prime — matched layout for symmetric dual-stick HOSAS control, putting a premium grip on both sides of your cockpit.
VPC Desk Mount V4-S — Short Arm
Clamps to your desk edge and positions each stick at a realistic, ergonomic angle. Adjustable height and angle. Fits desks 9mm to 65mm thick. One per side.
VPC Desk Mount Adapter — WarBRD-D Base
The required adapter plate connecting each WarBRD-D Base to the Desk Mount V4-S arm. All-metal construction. Included so the bundle is complete — no separate adapter purchase needed.
Why this bundle
Every detail a space-sim pilot needs.
Adjustable axis clutch dampers
Tune each axis from raw and responsive, through semi-damped for steady aim, to fully locked so the stick holds position — without disassembly.
Full cam and spring kit — per base
AviaSim No Center, AviaSim Soft Center, CosmoSim No Center, CosmoSim Soft Center, plus standard, heavy, and extra heavy springs. Mix per axis.
ALPHA Prime — left and right
Developed with the space-sim community. Fully mirrored — right and left versions give symmetric control without compromise for HOSAS setups.
Desk mounts and adapters included
Both V4-S arms and both WarBRD-D adapters included — no additional purchases needed to get your dual-stick cockpit mounted and ready.
VPC Configuration Software
Axis-to-button mapping, virtual axes, shift states, deadzones and more. Plug-and-play USB HID — no drivers required, configures to any sim.
Rated for every sim type
Five stars across space sim, fixed-wing military sim, general aviation, and rotary-wing. One bundle — every genre of flight covered.
The base
WarBRD-D — now with axis clutch dampers.
Independently Adjustable Axis Clutch Dampers
The latest WarBRD evolution
The WarBRD-D takes the hugely popular WarBRD platform and adds the independently adjustable axis clutch dampers first seen on the flagship MongoosT-50CM3. Each axis is controlled separately — disengage completely for raw fast combat inputs, add light damping to suppress centering oscillations during steady aim, or lock fully to hold the stick in position for helicopter-style inputs or dual-stick space sim setups.
- Per-axis control — X and Y axes tuned independently
- Three settings per axis — disengaged, semi-damped, fully locked
- Full cam and spring kit — AviaSim and CosmoSim variants included
- USB plug and play — no drivers required
The grips
VPC Constellation ALPHA Prime — left and right.
Designed with the Space-Sim Community
Premium mirrored grip pair
The ALPHA Prime grip was built in close collaboration with space-sim pilots who needed a grip as versatile as the games they fly — from dogfighting pirates to exploring new systems. The bundle includes both the right-hand and left-hand mirrored versions, giving you a proper symmetric dual-stick cockpit with premium build quality on both sides.
- Space-sim optimised — community-designed layout
- Left and right — matched mirrored pair included
- Fully programmable — via VPC Configuration Suite
- Premium VIRPIL construction — built to flagship standards
VPC Configuration Software
The VPC Configuration Suite gives you axis-to-button conversion, virtual axes, shift states, toggles, and full curve and deadzone control across both sticks. Works plug-and-play as a standard USB HID device — no drivers required. Configure once per sim and the bundle is ready to fly in any title.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
What is HOSAS and do I need it?
HOSAS stands for Hands On Stick And Stick — a dual flightstick setup with one stick per hand, rather than the traditional HOTAS (one stick, one throttle). In a HOSAS configuration both hands control a flightstick, giving you symmetric input and full 6-degrees-of-freedom control across all translational and rotational axes simultaneously. It is the preferred configuration for space sim pilots in games like Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous, where strafing, docking, and multi-axis manoeuvring are central to gameplay. HOSAS is also fully capable in DCS World, MSFS 2024, IL-2, and other flight sims — but for conventional flight, HOTAS is equally valid.
Is this bundle complete out of the box?
Yes — every component needed to build a full desk-mounted dual-stick HOSAS cockpit is included. Both desk mount arms, both WarBRD-D adapter plates, both bases, and both grips ship together. Plug in via USB and fly. No additional accessories are required.
What is the difference between the WarBRD-D and the original WarBRD?
The WarBRD-D adds independently adjustable axis clutch dampers — a feature previously exclusive to the flagship MongoosT-50CM3. These let you tune each axis from completely free (fast raw inputs) to semi-damped (reduced centering oscillations) to fully locked (stick holds position). The WarBRD-D otherwise retains all the cam and spring tunability of the original WarBRD platform.
What are the clutch dampers and what do they do?
Clutch dampers add resistance — or friction — to an axis. Set fully disengaged, the axis is raw and fast. Set semi-damped, the axis has enough resistance to suppress centering oscillations and assist steady aim. Set fully locked, the stick holds its position and does not spring back to center — useful for helicopter collective-style inputs or holding a yaw/roll position in space sims. Each axis is adjusted independently, so you can run different settings on X and Y.
Will the Desk Mount V4-S fit my desk?
The V4-S clamp accommodates desks from 9mm to 65mm thick using the included bolt sets (20mm, 40mm, and 60mm bolts). Most standard computer desks fall within this range. If you have an unusually thick desk, a glass top, or a sit-stand desk with a thick frame, call us on 0488 385 870 before ordering to confirm fit.
What games and sims work with this bundle?
The bundle is compatible with any PC game or sim that supports standard USB controller input — no drivers are required. Games that work particularly well with a HOSAS dual-stick setup include Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous, No Man's Sky, X4: Foundations, DCS World, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, IL-2 Sturmovik, and Arma 3. The VPC Configuration Software lets you remap any input, create virtual axes, and save profiles per title.
Can I use this bundle for flight sim as well as space sim?
Yes — while the bundle is optimised for HOSAS space sim use, it is rated five stars across fixed-wing military sim, general aviation, and rotary-wing sim as well. The WarBRD-D is a highly capable base across all genres. If you primarily fly conventional flight sims and prefer a HOTAS (one stick, one throttle) configuration, call us and we can advise on the best combination for your specific sim and flying style.
How do I set up and configure the bundle?
Attach the WarBRD-D adapter to the underside of each base, slot each base onto the V4-S arm, clamp each arm to your desk edge, and connect both bases to your PC via the included USB cables. Both devices are recognised as standard USB input devices immediately — no drivers needed. Download the free VPC Configuration Software from the VIRPIL support portal to customise axis curves, deadzones, button assignments, and shift states across both sticks.
Is the bundle covered by warranty in Australia?
Yes — all VIRPIL products in this bundle are backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty, handled locally by Player1 Sim Gear as the official Australian and New Zealand VIRPIL distributor. No international returns required. You also receive full Australian Consumer Law protection and a 14-day return guarantee on unused items in original condition. Call 0488 385 870 if any component has an issue.
Why buy from Player1 Sim Gear rather than directly from VIRPIL overseas?
Player1 Sim Gear is the official VIRPIL distributor for Australia and New Zealand. You get local stock, full Australian Consumer Law protection, a valid Australian GST invoice, warranty handled locally without international shipping, and a team you can call on 0488 385 870 — people who fly the gear they sell.
