HPR-I Launch Controller
Important note: IMPLS launch controllers are designed to work with Li-ion automotive jump-start batteries. The connector for this battery is included.
We offer a Power Pack option which includes a battery.
Please review our support article about Recommended Batteries before you make your purchase.
The IMPLS Launch Systems HPR-I (HPR ONE) is a single pad controller with a wired console and 50ft extension to connect the controller to the console. It requires a 12v battery connected to the controller at the pad.
This is our least expensive controller and we think it is ideal for TARC teams and small clubs who launch some larger rockets. 50' extension suitable for E, F, G motors. Choose 100' or 300' ethernet cable options for H+ motors.
The HPR-I provides audible continuity test at the pads and console. A console key switch locks out arming the system. An arm switch on the controller must be switched to Arm to allow arming the controller from the console. When armed, the controller sounds a LOUD siren to warn of Arm condition. Arm may be dropped at the controller by flipping the Arm switch to Safe.
The controller is built into a wire spool so that the ethernet, launch leads, and battery connector may be spooled into one neat package.
-
The launch leads and cable wind onto the pad-side spool (Controller).
-
Full size heavy duty igniter clips are suitable for MPR and HPR ignitors.
-
Check continuity at the controller and at the console. A loud piezo buzzer indicates good continuity.
-
When armed, a siren sounds so that everyone is aware that a launch is about to happen.
-
Uses standard ethernet cable. You can buy a spare 50ft. cable for less than $10. You can buy ethernet cables up to 300ft and they will work fine.
-
The controller includes a 10 amp thermal circuit breaker in case of a short circuit.
Our Power Pack is a 20000ma/h 12v power source with a charger and USB port. It may also be used as a car Jump starter and includes battery clamps for that purpose. It connects directly to your controller with a safe EC-5 plug (included). You may choose to use your own EC-5 12v power pack but we hope you find ours a good value for $50.00. With a fresh charge it is good for full day of launches.
Clean and simple. Easy setup, operation, and tear down. All components fit together on the field and in storage too. No loose parts means no disappointments.
