RS1

The RS1 is a system designed to automate the starting sequence of a sailboat race. Its operation is very simple from the user’s perspective. Turn on the air and power and then press the start button 10 seconds before you want the start sequence to begin. That’s it. No missed timed signals, no wrong flags, all eyes on the line and not the watch. No bad starts and most importantly no controversy.
