# TeleMini #
TeleMini version 2.0 is a small, baro-only recording dual-deploy
altimeter for model rocketry with integrated telemetry link. It's
currently in development, with production planned to start in the fall
of 2013.
For the latest TeleMini firmware and related ground station software, please
