LapCast - In Car Communicator

NOTE: This is the sale for an initial 100 units that will be ready summer 2026. Once sold out we will run another batch once we're satisfied everything is going smoothly, likely closer to September/October.

Flight Motorsports is pleased to finally be poised to release an in-car communicator that elevates the market. Smaller and louder than the competition PLUS the addition of wireless audio, IMSA jacks, a huge battery, and more!

This means that not only are we bringing you the best in-car communicator, we're also bringing you the only option that will pair to your phone (we all have them) which will allow for car-to-car communications, in conjunction with in-car operation, via a simple phone call.

No more dropped coms when you get too far apart, since we use cell phones to make the car-to-car link you can make the calls to/from anywhere.

What you get:

• Single LapCast
  • One LapCast communicator
    
  • Soft shell carrying case
  • Lanyard
  • Dual Port Charger and one USB cable
• Car-to-Car Kit
  • Two LapCast communicators
  • Soft shell carrying case
  • One black lanyard, One white lanyard
  • Dual Port Charger and two USB cables

*HEADSETS ARE BEING DEVELOPED AND SOLD SEPERATELY*

Lap Cast has three modes to ensure your use case is covered:

All Channels Open: In this mode the driver and passenger can talk, as well as anyone that's on the other end of the phone call. Add in more cars with a conference call! You can chat to all your buddies while blasting around your favorite track.

Push-to-Talk (PTT): In this mode, all in-car communication is open, but the passenger must push the PTT button to send audio to the phone call. This is perfect for car-to-car drills where both cars have an instructor or coach in the right seat. The instructor can dictate when the other car(s) can hear you. In this mode all incoming phone audio goes to both driver and passenger.

PTT Local Mute: In this mode the instructor/passenger decides where their mic goes. In normal mode, the in-car channels are connected, when the PTT button is pressed the passenger mic goes to the other car(s) only. This mode is perfect for one instructor with two students doing a lead-follow exercise. In this mode all incoming phone audio goes only to the passenger.

*If a phone is not connected, the unit will always act like a traditional communicator and all internal audio passed back and forth.

**Modes are indicated by the RGB LED, as well as blink count for our color challenged customers.

Audio is first and foremost our mission. We spend hundreds of Engineering hours perfecting our digital audio path for voice enhancement. We spent months and several prototype cycles perfecting the internal structure of the LapCast to remove anything that could cause any interference in the audio path and refined to the point that our audio connectors are soldered directly to the PCB. No wires at all!

The wireless audio path uses high-fidelity Wide Band Speech technology supported by pretty much any phone. This ensures even your car-to-car audio is crystal clear.

Battery! We use a battery 4x the size of the competition!

The internal battery in the Lap Cast In Car Communicator is a high-quality 18650 cell, and we estimate that for the average user a battery will last a full season. Should be about 40 hours with Bluetooth connected and 80 hours without.

Low Battery warnings are provided via LED indicator on the unit, as well as a [noninvasive] low-battery tone in the headsets so you'll have plenty of warning before your unit dies.

Headsets? We built IMSA jacks right into the Lap Cast. No proprietary connector, no flying-leads. Simple, clean, MIL Spec IMSA jacks. This is the biggest cost driver of the Lap Cast but we think it's worth it.

We are currently developing a headset to lead the competition in sound quality and volume but feel free to use other headsets, or your built-in helmet coms.

Construction is another area the Lap Cast really shines. We're using a high quality, anodized 7 series Aluminum frame to create the structure of the Lap Cast. This in conjunction with high quality connectors, wire assemblies, and a single piece PCB assembly, as well as internal mechanical packaging ensures the Lap Cast will be far more durable than the competition. No more broken wires, no more floppy 9V battery, no more fussing around.
