My only thing about Wireless type things like that is its one more thing with batteries or electrical needs that's got a higher proneness towards failure. For major systems, the more basic and simplisticlly mechanical it is, the easier it will be for me to make emergency field repairs and maintain it :).
The convenience of being able to stand and remotely level the camper would be pretty cool, though.
I'm an IT guy and like newfangled gadgets. But, I also prepare for their failure. That's why I also T'd into the line feeding each bag and installed a Schrader valve in the wheel wells. If for whatever reason I can't use the onboard compressor I can still air up with a bicycle pump. Likewise, a short hose with a lock on air chuck on each end and I can now inflate a tire using the airbag pump. It's going to take some time but better than having to resort to a hand pump if I'm in the middle of nowhere.
