TeleMega and EasyMega both have 6 pyro +channels and enough sensors to lock out pyro events based on conditions +like tilt-angle from vertical, making both boards ideal solutions for complex +projects with air start or multi-stage engine ignition requirements. Choose +TeleMega for a complete in-airframe solution including radio telemetry and +GPS, or EasyMega if you already have a tracking solution you like and just +need intelligent control of multiple pyro events. + +EasyMega is 2.25 x 1.25 inches (57.15 x 31.75 mm), which means it can be +easily mounted in a 38 mm air frame coupler. The list price for EasyMega +is $300, but as an introductory special, you can purchase one now through +Labor Day for only $250! This special is only good for in-person purchases +at Airfest and orders placed directly through Bdale's web store. + +Altus Metrum products are available directly from +[Bdale's web store](https://shop.gag.com), and from these distributors: + + * United States + * [Apogee Components](http://www.apogeerockets.com) + * [Bay Area Rocketry](http://bayarearocketry.com) + * [Chris' Rocket Supplies](http://csrocketry.com) + * Australia + * [Australian Rocketry](http://www.ausrocketry.com) + * Italy + * [SierraFoxHobbies](http://www.sierrafoxhobbies.com) + * Netherlands + * [Rebel Space](http://rebelspace.eu) + * New Zealand + * [Aerospace Education](http://www.rockets.co.nz) + +All Altus Metrum products are completely open hardware and open source. +The hardware design details and all source code are openly available for +download, and advanced users are invited to join our developer community +and help to enhance and extend the system.
