The Hawk-60 Collective grip is the second offer from VIRPIL for a collective set and, you may have guessed it, it resembles the UH-60 Blackhawk collective head.
This is not a temporary sale, but an actual decrease of the prices, which can go down by up to 20%.
The ALPHA Prime is one of the latest VIRPIL products to come out to the market. But while it’s a grip that seems to be mostly aimed at space/sci-fi games, there’s a particular feature to this model that made me take a second look at it.
VIRPIL launched a new joystick base that builds on its predecessor and comes with a feature designed for helicopter simmers. What is it, what does it do, and does it deliver? Find out in this review.
The company is expanding and opened a branch dedicated to the US market.
The manufacturer is offering an extra discount on helicopter controls starting today and they have indicated prices will rise in August.
A few weeks ago, VIRPIL released a new product which is clearly aimed at the helicopter pilots, even if the design is a bit… Odd. Intrigued? So was I. Fortunately, I got my hands on a unit to tell you all about it.
The pedals are based on an old design, and it allows for adjustments that should make it easier to control.
How do you improve something that’s already pretty darn good? Can you even do it? Can you turn a 10 into 11? Spoiler alert: yes, you can.
The kit allows you to control the force required to move the pedal, which can reduce stress on your legs if you use the spring, or to provide some force in case you remove it, for helicopters.
