USA_Recon Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 Question on this.... is an extension needed with the WarBRD base ?
DrRed Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 As I recall, an extension is not recommended for use with WarBrd. It is designed for desktop use and has a higher degree of excursion than the T50.

HC_Official Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) 22deg movement on warbrd Vs 16deg movement on CM2 base extensions are not recommended with the warbrd base I use mine with a deskmount (the mongoost-50/CM/CM2 grip is too damn tall to use on a desktop with warbrd) Edited September 17, 2019 by HC_Official No more pre-orders Click here for tutorials for using Virpil Hardware and Software Click here for Virpil Flight equipment dimensions and pictures. .

Sokol1_br Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 Question on this.... is an extension needed with the WarBRD base ? T-50 grip height under palm rest is like a Warthog grip with 50mm extension, this with 22 degrees (per side) movement of gimbal give you plenty of movement in top of grip. Anyway if go for extension, consider 50mm. VPC's sizes: http://www.havoc-company.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=1386
mungo13 Posted September 18, 2019 Author Posted September 18, 2019 T-50 grip height under palm rest is like a Warthog grip with 50mm extension, this with 22 degrees (per side) movement of gimbal give you plenty of movement in top of grip. Anyway if go for extension, consider 50mm. VPC's sizes: http://www.havoc-company.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=1386 Great drawings - Virpil should have them on their page WarBRD grip is clearly shorter than T50 one, thus 5cm extension would make them approximately equal. Question on this.... is an extension needed with the WarBRD base ? To repeat - Virpil stated that gimbal of the WarBRD base is strong enough to handle the stiffer springs and extension leverage. The risk is that (when using older 90-degree desk mounts) this increased area of movement comes with a chance of banging the grip against the mount or the table. Damage is not covered under warranty Some people claimed that with long extensions they feel nearly no resistance around the center of the movement. Even with the provided strong springs.
