The VIRPIL R1-FALCON are 3-axis rudder pedals with all-metal construction and 14-bit contactless digital sensors, designed for flight simulation on PC.

A direct evolution of the VPC ACE, the R1-FALCON combine a CNC aluminium chassis, a centering system with interchangeable cams and springs, and an extra-large base plate that prevents sliding. They are part of the VIRPIL Controls range and suit both desktop setups and full cockpits.

Key features

  • All-metal construction with a CNC aluminium chassis and interchangeable cast aluminium footplates.
  • 14-bit VPC contactless digital sensors with 0.02° angular detection and no mechanical wear.
  • 3 axes: yaw steering plus independent left and right differential brakes (toe brakes).
  • Configurable centering system: 3 cams (Soft, Hard and No Center) and 2 springs (Heavy and Standard) included.
  • Pedal angle adjustable across a 20° range and spacing adjustable to your cockpit.
  • Instantly adjustable centre tension dial and tilting pedals for centre-stick setups.
  • Compatible with the optional Damper Upgrade Kit for even smoother motion.

Which version should you choose?

You can choose the R1-FALCON with or without the Damper Upgrade Kit. The damper kit adds progressive resistance that smooths the travel and gets the most out of the No Center cam; if you want the most realistic feel, choose the option with the kit. Without the kit you still get a complete pedal set with cam- and spring-based centering.

Compatibility

  • Platform: PC via USB plug & play. Not compatible with consoles (PlayStation or Xbox).
  • Simulators: any simulator or game that supports controller inputs, such as Microsoft Flight Simulator, DCS World, X-Plane, IL-2 Sturmovik or Elite Dangerous.
  • Interface: USB with USB/OUT and an AUX cable to daisy-chain other VIRPIL devices.
