The ARRI Hi-5 is the current-generation intelligent hand unit — the successor to the WCU-4 — and like any focus-control system it is only as useful as the completeness of the kit that arrives. This case protects it for a fraction of the unit's value.
CNC-cut foam holds the Hi-5 face-protected with the display and focus wheel clear of contact, and gives the radio module, the motors, the cabling, and the marking rings each their own fitted well. That count-at-a-glance layout means an AC or rental desk sees at a glance whether every module and cable made it back before the case is signed in — on a hand unit built around swappable radio modules, one missing part takes the whole system out of service.
An ATA-grade case is also what makes a freight claim winnable — carriers deny damage claims on self-packed equipment, while an ATA case makes the shipment insurable and the claim defensible. Built to order and foamed in North Hollywood by Innerspace Cases; the foam is cut to your exact configuration — tell us your kit and we cut the wells to match.

Fit & shipping FAQ
What fits inside?
As built, the Hi-5 hand unit face-protected in a contoured pocket plus fitted wells for the radio module, motors, cabling, marking rings, and charger.
Can the foam be cut for my exact Hi-5 kit?
Yes — every case is built to order, so the wells follow your setup. Tell us which radio module, how many motors, and any extras on the quote and we CNC-cut to match.
Is the hand unit's display protected?
The Hi-5 seats face-protected against soft, low-abrasion polyethylene with the display and focus wheel relieved, suspended away from the case walls so impact loads never reach the screen.
Do you build this in a Pelican shell?
Yes — we cut Hi-5 interiors for the Pelican 1510, 1550 and 1560 as well as fabricating a custom ATA case. The Pelican versions are the usual choice when the unit flies as carry-on.
What's the lead time, and can you rush it?
Every case is built to order and ships in about 14–21 business days. Rush production is available as a premium by quote when a deadline is tight — tell us your date and we'll price it.
Outfitting a rental inventory or a multi-camera package? We build these as standardized, re-orderable cases with optional engraved IDs. Request a quote or contact the shop at 818-767-3030.
