It provides a few new features +	in AltosUI and the AltOS firmware and fixes bugs. +   +	== AltOS + +		AltOS Firmware New Features: + +		* Add apogee-lockout value. Overrides the apogee +		  detection logic to prevent incorrect apogee charge +		  firing. + +		* Force the radio frequency to 434.550MHz when the +		  debug clock pin is connected to ground at boot +		  time. This provides a way to talk to a TeleMini +		  which is configured to some unknown frequency. + +		* Provide RSSI values for Monitor Idle mode. This +		  makes it easy to check radio range without needing +		  to go to flight mode. + +		AltOS Fixes: + +		* Fix a bug where the data reported in telemetry +		  packets was from 320ms ago. + +		* Fix a bug which caused the old received telemetry +		  packets to be retransmitted over the USB link when +		  the radio was turned off and back on. +   +	== AltosUI + +		AltosUI New Features: + +		* Make the look-n-feel configurable, providing a choice from +		  the available options. + +		* Add an 'Age' element to mark how long since a +		  telemetry packet has been received. Useful to +		  quickly gauge whether communications with the rocket +		  are still active. + +		* Add 'Configure Ground Station' dialog to set the +		  radio frequency used by a particular TeleDongle +		  without having to go through the flight monitor UI. + +		* Add configuration for the new apogee-lockout +		  value. A menu provides a list of reasonable values, +		  or the value can be set by hand. + +		* Add Imperial units mode to present data in feet +		  instead of meters. + +		AltosUI Fixes: + +		* Fix a bug that caused GPS ready to happen too +		  quickly. The software was using every telemetry +		  packet to signal new GPS data, which caused GPS +		  ready to be signalled after 10 packets instead of 10 +		  GPS updates. + +		* Fix Google Earth data export to work with recent +		  versions. The google earth file loading code got a +		  lot pickier, requiring some minor white space +		  changes in the export code. + +		* Changed how flight data are downloaded. Now there's +		  an initial dialog asking which flights to download, +		  and after that finishes, a second dialog comes up +		  asking which flights to delete. + +		* Re-compute time spent in each state for the flight +		  graph; this figures out the actual boost and landing +		  times instead of using the conservative values +		  provide by the flight electronics. This improves the +		  accuracy of the boost acceleration and main descent +		  rate computations. + +		* Make AltosUI run on Mac OS Lion. The default Java +		  heap space was dramatically reduced for this release +		  causing much of the UI to fail randomly. This most +		  often affected the satellite mapping download and +		  displays. + +		* Change how data are displayed in the 'table' tab of +		  the flight monitoring window. This eliminates +		  entries duplicated from the header and adds both +		  current altitude and pad altitude, which are useful +		  in 'Monitor Idle' mode. |
