# Products #
These products are available for purchase:
GPS and bidirectional RF telemetry link.
* [TeleMega](TeleMega/)
-is a high-end flight computer with 6 pyro channels, more and better sensors,
-GPS, and a high performance bidirectional RF telemetry link.
+is a high-end flight computer with 6 pyro channels, tilt limits, more and
+better sensors, GPS, and a high performance bidirectional RF telemetry link.
+
+* [TeleDongle](TeleDongle/)
+is a simple RF interface for use in ground stations interacting with rockets
+using [TeleMetrum](TeleMetrum/). It may also be useful as a generic RF
+interface for other microcontroller systems. Note that we don't actually
+sell TeleDongle by itself, it is included in our
+[Starter Pack](http://shop.gag.com/ground-stations/starter-pack.html) offering.
* [TeleBT](TeleBT) is a variation on [TeleDongle](TeleDongle/) that adds
[Bluetooth](http://www.bluetooth.com) as an alternative to USB. Particularly
useful with the [AltosDroid](http://www.altusmetrum.org/AltosDroid/) app for Android devices!
+* [TeleGPS](TeleGPS/)
+is a GPS tracker and logger using the uBlox Max 7Q GPS receiver for
+high dynamic performance and a combination digital/APRS transmitter.
+
+* [EasyMega](EasyMega/)
+is a high-end flight computer with 6 pyro channels, tilt limits, etc. The
+design is identical to [TeleMega](TeleMega/), but without the GPS receiver
+and radio telemetry link.
+
* [EasyMini](EasyMini/)
is a small dual-deploy rocketry altimeter using the MS5607 barometry
pressure sensor.
provides an interface between [MicroPeak](MicroPeak/) and USB to
download flight log data.
-The following products will be available again soon:
+* [ChaosKey](ChaosKey/)
+is a true hardware random number generator that connects over USB.
+
+The following product is available in limited quantity from time to time:
* [TeleMini](TeleMini/)
is a smaller dual-deploy rocketry altimeter with telemetry using only a
barometric pressure sensor
-* [TeleDongle](TeleDongle/)
-is a simple RF interface for use in ground stations interacting with rockets
-using [TeleMetrum](TeleMetrum/). It may also be useful as a generic RF
-interface for other microcontroller systems.

# Projects #
These are projects we're working on that may become products someday:

the set of hardware projects here.
-* [MegaDongle](MegaDongle/)
-is a supposedly-higher-performance alternative to [TeleDongle](TeleDongle/).
-
* [OpenAlt](OpenAlt/)
was Bdale's original project here, a dual-deploy rocketry altimeter. One
-prototype was built, but never flown. This project is now indefinitely on hold.

+* [TeleLaunch](TeleLaunch/)
+is a wireless launch control system capable of operating up to 400 pads.
* [TeleNano](TeleNano/)
is a tiny rocketry altimeter with telemetry using only a barometric
