VPC Control Panel #2
The Control Panel #2 aims to bring even further unique inputs and control options to every VIRPIL as a standalone device or as part of a VPCockpit

The control inputs include:

★ 10 x Customisable RGB Momentary Buttons
★ 6 x Momentary Toggle Switches (ON-OFF-ON) 
★ 2 x Latched Toggle Switches (ON-ON) 
★ 2 x Flip Cover Toggle Switches (ON-OFF-ON) 
★ 3 x Encoder Dials (+ Push)
★ Multi-Position Landing Gear Lever (ON-ON-ON)

The multi-position landing gear lever features an all metal internal mechanism, featuring a swappable detent plate, spring loaded lift and return and a VPC digital contactless position sensor ensuring precise and reliable input.

Nice addition.

If I ever find myself needing more buttons I will take a serious look at getting one of these.

Hmmm I am in the market for a new Button box still waiting on another company to put theirs out.

Can this be used with out the Virpil software and configured within DCS?  

 

Just seen this>>>>"The VPC Control Panels can be operated as a standalone USB device, or combined "

There should be a panel for VR users... don't need anything that is already in the cockpit for us but something with easy to find buttons and switches to trigger all the other 'sim related' functions and stuff ... views etc cause trying to find a key on the keyboard with the VR hmd on is not cool

Have you tried the scrachpad mod? Works a treat, especially in VR.

Sorry, I’ve misunderstood what you were looking for. The scratchpad mod won’t do it for you. It’s for taking notes, coordinates, etc. using a virtual keyboard. Very helpful in VR. 
sorry to have got your hopes up!

Haha no I realised that but a vr scratchpad was also on the list anyway so your mistake was much welcome

I am new to virpil but I cannot see how the CP#2 will receive information from the game to operate the gear status lights. I would hazard a guess that the lights work in conjunction to the lever location. Unless you will have to run the VPC and edit a Lua. to feed back to the CP#2 via the Software?

Virpil has released a short video on the CP#2  CP#2 Video

 

A bit more information on the Landing Gear Lights they have quoted " "Dynamic or Static lighting options" 

 

Also you can have 2 or 3 positions with the landing gear nice touch.

Looks great, but why would you want more than 2 positions - up and down - for landing gear? Just curious.

Most of the Russian aircraft have a neutral position for landing gear, otherwise the hydraulics are in operation if left in up or down position or something like that.

Here is what I believe  CP#3 may look like as they may tweak it before release.

 

Thing with Virple is that they have all the window dressings in the shop window but nothing on the selves. 

 

I.E Pre- order or Back- Order nothing available.
