Expert Reply:
The Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller - Wireless # C51180 according to the manufacturer has a 50 foot range, but that will depend on the Bluetooth capacities of your connected mobile device as well. We have tested it and had not issues at that range with the newer mobile devices most people use.
If you were to lose connection with your mobile device, the controller will still work and operate based on the settings given at the last connection, but you won't have the panic/emergency brake override button. You shouldn't have any issue with a Class C camper using this device.
