The ULTIMATE HPR Controller
The WRC+ harnesses the ultimate sensory and processing system known to man and seamlessly links this to virtually any aspect of event control for your HPR project... staging, airstarts, chute deployment, permissives, backups, or any other form of digital control. You decide
if or
when an event gets initiated with 100% autonomy, or use it in concert with other onboard avionics systems.
The WRC+ Complete System package provides everything you need for a virtual turn-key, plug and play remote control system... mount, power-up, and fly!
The WRC+ Complete System includes both our 1/2 wave dipole antenna and easy mounting PCB Blade antenna
