Viper panel

The Thrustmaster Viper Panel is an auxiliary control panel replica designed for F-16C Fighting Falcon simulation in DCS World, providing the button and switch inputs found on the F-16C cockpit side panels that are not part of the primary HOTAS controls. It covers functions such as landing gear, avionics, engine management, and other systems that the pilot accesses during preflight, takeoff, combat, and landing procedures.

The Viper Panel connects via USB and is recognized as an HID device in DCS World and other simulation platforms. Physical switch and button layout replicates the F-16C cockpit side panel arrangement for procedural accuracy. It is designed to complement the Viper TQS throttle and F-16C VIPER HOTAS Add-On Grip in an F-16 simulation setup.

The panel is designed for DCS World F-16C Viper module users who want panel-level procedural accuracy beyond the primary HOTAS controls. All hardware and documentation for USB setup are included. DCS World key binding profiles for the Viper Panel are available from Thrustmaster and the DCS community.
