Hoi Chummers

Is there anywhere in 5th ed regarding RCC's as cranial cyberwear similiar to cyberdecks?

That would be handy but imagibe it would be highly invasive.

Not RAW. RCC's are big. That isn't to say that it couldn't be done, but it wouldn't be a commonly chosen install. Especially with Control Rigs taking up Essences too.

RCCs aren't - have never been - too big.  The size of them have been upscaled in order for someone to be able to pilot a drone without needing a vehicle control rig, e.g. controls, viewscreen, that sort of thing.  Considering everything necessary, and considering that in 3e a RCC was able to be implanted (0.3 Essence, 25k x Rating), albeit without as great a range as usual.  Naturally, you'd link up with a signal booster to hook you into your drones ... but with everything now wirelessly connected, I see no reason why you couldn't simply use the standard cyberdeck implant rule (0.4 Essence or 4 Capacity, 5,000¥ plus standard cyberdeck cost) for a RCC implant.  It's what I use.
