R1 Rudder Pedals - Damper Upgrade Kit

 

Take your VIRPIL Controls rudder pedals to the next level!

The Damper Upgrade Kit allows you to equip your VPC Rudder Pedals with a high quality adjustable hydraulic damper. The damper will help improve accuracy and precision with rudder inputs by smoothing the pilot's movements and reduce/eliminate spring induced wobble. The damper can also be adjusted to hold the pedals in a deflected positon, with no return to center - greatly improving rotorcraft piloting experience!

Unlike tension springs, the hydraulic damper force is linear and constant throughout it's entire range. Adjust the damper in combination with the swappable cams and springs to achieve your perfect rudder pedals! 

Installing the VPC Rudder Pedal Damper Upgrade Kit is easy and only takes a few minutes to install. 

The damper is fully compatible with the following VIRPIL Controls pedals:

  • VPC R1 FALCON Rudder Pedals

R1 rudder Pedals: Kit amortisseur

Parfait comme tout les produits Virpil.

Amazing

Damper made it even smoother, this might seem obvious, but when I added a damper to my mfg crosswind rudders it actually made them stickier and it was a huge pain in the ass to install. The Virpil damper tool 2 minutes to install and made already amazingly smooth rudder pedals even better

Perfect

I bought rudder pedal and thought i'd try them to see if i needed the damper or not. The pedals are fantastic, but made even better with the damper. Very controllable resistance.

Excellent addition

High-quality addition to my R1 Legend pedals. Easy to install and adjust as needed.

Worth it

Full disclosure I didn't play with this without the damper, however... Everyone saying they wish they had this sooner probably aren't wrong. It's sorta subtle but very noticeable and it's just, way nicer feeling compared to straight out of the box. Just gives it the perfect amount of stiffness needed.

Highly Recommended

I have had the R1 rudder pedal for a year, but recently added this damper upgrade kit to it. Oh man, I regretted that I didn't get this when I first got my R1 rudder pedal. It's a huge improvement on the overall flying experience. I highly recommend it to anyone who has an R1 rudder pedal.

Must have

If you have invested in the pedals already this is a no-brainer. So smooth.

Big damper!

It is twice as powerful as the damper of the Winwing.

Great quality & Highly recommended

I would also recommend everyone to get it. Totaly changes the feel of the pedals with allowing millimeter-precise control as it was written earlier.

Worth the upgrade

The damper set changes the feel of the R1 pedals, adding smooth resistance and allowing millimeter-precise control which is perfect for warbirds in DCS. They do have some initial stiction when new, but this improves with use. Once broken in, the dampers make the pedals feel far more realistic and immersive.

Great Quality

I recommend that everyone get it, as it makes a significant difference.

These are basically a must have

This is definitely something you're going to notice. If I had a criticism it would be that the mounting on the collar side or maybe the instructions are a little wacky. I feel like maybe there should just be a tool path through the strut. Or maybe just tell people to mount the collar art the very end of the cylinder. Works well once you get it set up though. .

Highly recommended

I got the damper kit for my Falcon pedals and truth be told, i am so glad i did. While the pedals work really well without it, the damper adds a smoothness of operation which actually feels very satisfying for some reason. You can also tweak the resistance quite easily and together with the other features on the Falcon pedals you can play around with, i am confident you'll find the setting that fits you and your setup.
