Yes. Keith has at least one mach-busting TeleMini flight in our repository of flight data, and all looked great. Not lots, though, as we just haven't had a lot of good flying opportunities since we released the product last August. Keith has a test harness that allows him to run the flight state machine against flight data in our repository that was collected using TeleMetrum hardware, so our confidence in TeleMini firmware was pretty high even before we flew it. By the way, this is why we love to receive customer flight data, both .telem and .eeprom files. Someday maybe we'll create an easy way to upload the files to us, in the meantime please feel free to send them as email attachments. By way of complete disclosure, I've had exactly one TeleMini customer email from someone who thought they saw anomalous behavior after a mach transition, but they volunteered that there were too many unknowns about the flight to point a finger at TeleMini as being the cause of their problem. > I know it utilizes a kalman filter.
