Heli Pedals

I wonder if VKB will consider making another set of their famous pedals, slightly differently

Shrink Sleeve on Trigger Spring

Hi VKB

I saw a good design to help improve the twangs/noises on compression springs would be to add a piece of heatshrink over the spring.

would you consider this for your next version grips primary/secondary fire trigger springs?

Re: MCG Pro brake flickers or activates by itself

sounds like it could be one of the pins not making contact briefly? but it's difficult to say.
you could try these steps
- ensure the grip is firmly in place
- check the pins are making contact (ensuring they are all extended)
- open the grip and see if there are any loose wires.

Re: Virpil New Grip with twist....

I'm also an engineer and fully understand perfecting things. From a business sense (because they are running a business) simply updating the customers with the word 'soon' is a horrendous business plan. Never in my 22 years of engineering have we ever simply said soon with no technical updates what...

Re: Virpil New Grip with twist....

Please note VKB is not Thrustmaster nor is it Logitech, the scale of things this company (VKB) produce are in smaller quantity and higher quality. I am not here to bad mouth other competitors as I believe all vendors have a purpose and have a value, their place in the market being larger scale, mass...

Re: Virpil New Grip with twist....

it's nice to see another company developing controllers for the community :)

I can speak as someone who owns several products from many companies and I can speak as someone who moderates the /r/hotas and the official HOTAS/HOSAS/SIMPIT Discord server, so I know a few things :wink:

VKB = Quality.

Re: Gunfighter Base Intermittent Disconnect Issue

we have had recently some people on the discord community having similar occurrences of disconnect - 1 resolved his by cleaning the contacts and ensuring the pins are all extended - 1 resolved his by replacing the USB cable (after 4 or 5 USB cables, all were not working except 1) - 1 resolved his by...

Re: Thought about producing a yoke for non-combat sims?

I agree. The mass consumer yokes are awful. I keep looking at Yoko, but £1000 is just too much. I don't want to promote another company on this forum, but seeing as VKB don't do yoke, I hope they won't mind. HoneyComb are coming out with a Quad and Yoke at reasonable prices - not like Yoko, but wit...
