NexusRig Vanguard Flight Edition – 120x40 Curved Aluminium Flight Simulator Cockpit with Flight Seat & Control Mounts

NexusRig Vanguard Flight Edition: overview

The NexusRig Vanguard Flight Edition turns our NexusRig Vanguard cockpit into a complete flight simulator cockpit. It comes with a flight seat built for commercial and military flying – HOTAS cut-outs, lumbar support and premium materials for long-haul comfort – plus left and right control mounts for your sticks and throttles.

Mount a yoke directly on the yoke platform and your rudder pedals on the baseplate, with a micro side slider and angle adjustment to get them perfect. Its distinctive curved 120x40 mm aluminium design pairs rigidity with a sleek look, and it is motion ready.

Because it is a NexusRig at heart, it races too: add a wheel base, pedals and the gear shift mount and switch from flying to driving.

Who the nexusRig Vanguard Flight Edition is for

Pilots who want a dedicated rig:

• Airliner pilots in MSFS and X-Plane

Choosing and building a sim rig

Rigidity first. A cockpit exists so the force your wheel base produces goes into your hands, not into a flexing frame. Direct drive bases need a stiff front mount; aluminium profile rigs (40 mm and 80 mm extrusion with 8 mm slots) are the stiffest and most adjustable, while steel tube rigs are lighter and quicker to assemble.

Driving position. GT position puts you upright with the pedals low; formula position reclines the seat and raises the pedals. Check whether the cockpit, seat bracket and pedal mount allow the position you want.

Plan the extras. Monitor stands, shifter and handbrake mounts, keyboard trays and PC shelves bolt onto most profile rigs. Planning them up front avoids drilling or re-assembling later.

Setup and use

1. Assemble the cockpit.
2. Fit the flight seat (and slider).
3. Install the side mounts and yoke platform; attach your controls.
4. Mount rudder pedals on the baseplate, adjust everything and calibrate in your simulator.

Care and maintenance

Check bolts after the first week and monthly. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth; clean the seat with mild soap.
