About LaunchControl
Modern RVs contain an incredible amount of technology, but using it shouldn't feel complicated. While the RV-C standard allows systems throughout the coach to communicate with one another, the control experience often falls short of what's actually possible.
LaunchControl was created to change that.
It began with a simple, real-world problem. Much of my camping is off-grid, and I'd often wake up wondering what had been left running overnight—or wishing I could quickly check battery status, turn off a system, or start a timer without getting out of bed. The information was available, but it wasn't presented in a way that made everyday use easy.
Drawing on decades of experience designing broadcast control, automation, and user interfaces, I set out to build something different. My goal wasn't to expose every available RV-C function—it was to create a control system that presents the right information, at the right time, with an interface that's fast, intuitive, and enjoyable to use.
Everything we build is guided by a few simple principles:
- Clean, elegant interface design
- Thoughtfully simplified controls
- Immediate, at-a-glance visibility
- Intelligent automation that solves real problems
- Reliable operation without unnecessary complexity
The result is a control platform designed around how people actually use their RVs—not just how the underlying technology works.
After seeing how dramatically LaunchControl improved the experience in my own RV, I decided to make it available to other owners. Today, LaunchControl combines thoughtfully engineered hardware and software, simple documentation, and optional installation assistance to help customers get up and running quickly and confidently.
