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+ DIY System package provides the essential building-block board components for you to build and customize your own remote control system or Launch System/GSE ... mount in enclosures of your choice, select antennas, and your ready for remote operations!
NO antennas are furnished with the WRC+ DIY system.
Please review our antenna choices in the Electrical section.
