+TeleMini version 2.0 is a small, baro-only recording dual-deploy
+altimeter for model rocketry with integrated telemetry link. The board
+form factor and features are identical to [EasyMini](../EasyMini/), with the
+addition of radio telemetry and direction finding. TeleMini is an excellent
+choice for mid-power and smaller high-power rockets, and can also be a
+cost-effective solution for booster recovery in multi-stage projects, etc.

+Our current prototypes mostly work, but there are a couple issues yet to
+resolve. We hope to complete this design and put TeleMini v2.0 into production
+sometime in mid-2014.
