Hello VIRPILs!As many of you know, we’ve been talking closely with the space sim community for quite some time. We understand that space sim pilots have specific unique requirements to get the most out of their spacecraft. We’ve been eager to expand our product line-up to cater for those requirements. [IMG: 269303468 5295739730541843 3474734578468342050 n] Today we have an exciting announcement which we know many VIRPILs have been eagerly waiting for…Introducing the VPC Flightstick Z-Extension! [IMG: 267577464 5295740630541753 7132231207478105917 n] The VPC Z-Extension brings in a new concept for dual-stick setups. This extension allows you to reposition your left-hand grip to a more ergonomic and intuitive position for 6 DoF spaceflight. The premium all-metal construction lives up to the high quality standard you’ve come to expect from VIRPIL Controls and ensures a solid connection between your grip and base.We continue to use our standard grip connection which maintains compatibility with all VPC grips and bases.The VPC Flightstick Z-Extension can be ordered today via the VIRPIL Controls Worldwide Webstore for 49,95 EUR - the first batch will be ready for dispatch next week!https://virpil-controls.eu/vpc-flightstick-z-extension.html Take your VPCockpit to the next level and dominate the universe with VIRPIL Controls!

Hello VIRPILs! It is with great excitement that we can announce the long awaited release of our upcoming VIRPIL Controls Collective controller lineup! [IMG: HelicopterPre2_01(3).thumb.png.7df65c7b82131e9946be7b316530a17d.png] Helicopter pilots both new and old can rejoice as the VPC Rotor TCS Base, VPC Rotor TCS Plus Base and VPC SharKa-50 Grip are now waiting to get into VPCockpits around the world and start a new era of helicopter sim piloting! VPC Rotor TCS and Rotor TCS Plus Collective Base As the center point of the VPC Collective Controls lineup, the VPC Rotor TCS and Rotor TCS Plus Bases offer an accessible and exciting way to get into the world of helicopter piloting. [IMG: HelicopterPre_03(3).thumb.png.66f4b7482ae34a611335ecd18a9b6c94.png] The VPC Rotor TCS Bases feature an adjustable, metal mechanism with 3 swappable cams to limit the travel of the collective to your preferences. [IMG: fWTUpLxZMchWLYAUNfd-Fw-xgkgBspwjyAqIf2amUsdnkZt_yvy12j1Yldmuby4JigJN_ILBPkgbdKYMNwIrOLaIQOLxHXKIJX5GT8Z9iTW0LOdaLqNj-bUGXZD8L1T6nYJtX-tc] The Rotor TCS mechanism also features an adjustable clutch - using the access ports on the top and bottom side of the base, you can adjust the clutch without requiring disassembly to easily tune the feel of the base to your preference. This clutch mechanism also ensures that the collective remains in place when it’s not being held. [IMG: HelicopterPre2_02.thumb.png.6827b7dc090990aee6a7fd4f34dda035.png] The Rotor TCS Plus base features a twist throttle axis input on the arm of the collective as well as a button input and toggle switch. This button and switch works in conjunction with the twist throttle axis idle stop detent system. The side switch limits the twist throttle’s rotation when engaged, when disengaged the full axis can be used, with a stop at the 90 degree point which can be bypassed by using the engine idle button. [IMG: HelicopterPre_04(2).thumb.png.a68889ade5d82d86d3b9243664a92187.png] [IMG: HelicopterPre2_07.thumb.png.ef1408b97f2013adaf00d4e25fdb0435.png] Included with the base is a metal mounting bracket. This bracket can be orientated in a number of different ways to accommodate a variety of DIY and custom mounting systems. Additionally, it can be combined with our VPC Collective Chair Mount adapter which enables the Rotor TCS base to be mounted to the underside of a variety of standard desk chairs. [IMG: HelicopterPre2_03.thumb.png.64461abff220b5861af4460f17c00ec2.png] We have additionally been working with Monstertech and Obutto to ensure our VPC Collective Controllers can be fitted to as many setups as possible! VPC Collective Chair Mount Adapter Collective controls pose an interesting challenge as due to their unique nature it can prove difficult to conveniently mount in a number of setups. Our design team has worked to create an accessible controller setup for anyone wishing to jump into the exciting world of helicopter piloting. An important step to achieving this is our VPC Collective Chair Mount Adapter. [IMG: HelicopterPre2_06(2).thumb.png.8af0943dc90628ddf67850ae036a22bb.png] [IMG: r7YXW757gByJGW4sRonIxv9lNfC04xztGw.png?1620962029] This adapter mounts to the underside of a range of common desk chairs, using existing mounting points to affix the mount. This ensures a sturdy and convenient mounting option for those without custom cockpits or DIY skills. VPC SharKa-50 Collective Grip To accompany our Rotor TCS Bases, we will be launching our first grip in the collective lineup, the VPC SharKa-50 Grip! [IMG: HelicopterPre_05(2).thumb.png.2248aec169f987cb22947a003c6fef9c.png] This grip is inspired by the collective controls found on the venerable Ka-50 “Black Shark” helicopter. With this we aim to put the feel of a real collective grip in your hands! [IMG: HelicopterPre2_04.thumb.png.bdbef568dc4e1af988a736e06e4dd98b.png] Featuring a metal handle with rubberised grip, you can immediately feel this means business! The grip is equipped with a wide range of inputs to satisfy any helicopter pilot: 2 x 8-way Hats (+ Push) 1 x 2-way Switch (+ Push) 3 x 3-way Toggles (ON-OFF-ON) 3 x Push Buttons Also included is a sticker sheet so that you can label your grip with either the original inspired Russian or English labels! [IMG: HelicopterPre2_08.thumb.png.faaceccf9e0cab5ec8ef8a419d6a9aa6.png] This grip demonstrates some of the latest production advancements within VIRPIL Controls and is something we’re truly excited about! Our other collective grip previewed earlier this year, the VPC Hawk-60 Grip, is estimated to join the lineup in Q4 2021. Visit the VIRPIL Controls WorldWide Webstore Today to Pre-Order! Pre-orders for the VPC Rotor TCS Base, VPC Rotor TCS Plus Base, VPC SharKa-50 Grip and VPC Collective Chair Mount Adapter will open on 14th May 2021 with the first batches dispatching at the end of June 2021. ★ VPC Rotor TCS Base189.95 EURhttps://virpil-controls.eu/vpc-rotor-tcs-base.html ★ VPC Rotor TCS Plus Base289.95 EURhttps://virpil-controls.eu/vpc-rotor-tcs-plus-base.html ★ VPC SharKa-50 Grip189.95 EURhttps://virpil-controls.eu/vpc-sharka-50-collective-grip.html ★ VPC Collective Chair Mount Adapter39.95 EURhttps://virpil-controls.eu/vpc-chair-mount-collective-base-adapter.html When ordering a VPC Collective Base and Collective Grip together in the same order, you’ll receive the VPC Collective Bundle Discount for 10% off both items!

Your Diagnosis
Before revealing the machine’s verdict, predict the BS score for each signal. Higher = more BS (more fluff, less verifiable substance). Drag each slider, then submit to compare your judgment against the engine.
Stuck? Reveal the heuristic lens — how the deterministic page-auditor reads each signal (no AI, pure pattern rules)
These are the structural rules a local, deterministic auditor applies — the same lens you can use to judge each signal. They describe what to look for, not this company’s result.
Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.
Pull the main entities out of the H1, then check whether they actually recur through the body. A page that announces one thing and then talks about another drifts. Headings with no real sentences underneath read as pseudo-substance.
Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.
Look at how much sentence length varies. Natural writing varies its rhythm; templated or mass-produced copy is statistically uniform. Very low variation reads as commodity content — unless unique named entities break the pattern.
Inspect the JSON-LD. Is there an Organization or Person schema, and does it carry sameAs links to real external profiles (LinkedIn, socials)? Missing schema or no identity declaration signals an anonymous entity.
Want to apply this lens yourself? The free BS Indicator Chrome extension runs these heuristic checks live on any page. Bear in mind it is a single-page, deterministic tool — it relies only on pattern rules for the page in front of it and does not perform the cross-page semantic correlation this audit uses, so its readout is a starting lens, not the full verdict.
Based on 3390 businesses audited.
VIRPIL Controls has 2.4 points less BS than the average for Ecommerce & Online Retail.
Ecommerce & Online Retail BS: VIRPIL Controls (virpil.com)
A high-substance engineering firm trapped in a technically decaying digital tomb. The hardware specifications are forensic-grade and credible, but the total absence of updates for nearly four years and the lack of structured data signal an abandoned or unoptimized digital presence.
Immediately implement H1 headings to define page hierarchy and intent. Inject Organization and Person schema to link the brand to real founders or lead engineers. Publish current news to bridge the 46-month content gap and prove the business is still operational. Add external links to community reviews or YouTube hardware benchmarks to provide third-party validation.
The site is a definitive match for the flight and space simulation hardware niche within the Ecommerce and Online Retail industry. The content focuses exclusively on the engineering, pre-order, and dispatch of specialized peripheral devices like throttles, grips, and collective bases.
“The score of 34 reflects a low-BS, high-substance product line undermined by technical neglect. The Information Density and Commodity Fingerprint scores are low because the site is genuinely specific. The score is elevated primarily by the Identity and Authority pillar (13) and the Trust and Proof pillar (10) due to technical failures and the extreme stale-dating of all proof points.”
