Altus Metrum Returns as a Sponsor for 2025!
Altus Metrum, manufacturer of some of the most advanced electronics available in high power rocketry, has signed on once again as a sponsor of the Argonia Cup. Their sponsorship is twofold again!

First, they have donated one (1) of their premier avionic altimeters, the TeleMega, a
high-end flight computer with 6 pyro channels, tilt limits, improved sensors, GPS, and a high-performance bidirectional RF telemetry link as well as two (2) of their Telemetrums, a dual-deploy rocketry altimeter with GPS and bidirectional RF telemetry link. The TeleMega will be awarded to the championship team and a TeleMetrum will be awarded to the second and third place teams. This portion of Altus Metrum’s sponsorship represents $1000 in prizes!

Second, Altus Metrum has donated ten (10) of their very capable EasyMini dual
deployment altimeters to the prize pool. These altimeters will be presented to the first ten teams to post a qualified flight in the Argonia Cup competition held March 29-30, 2025 at the Kloudbuster’s Rocket Pasture just south of Argonia, KS. These ten EasyMini’s are valued at $80 each bringing the total value of Altus Metrum’s
sponsorship up to $1800!

Altus Metrum was the Argonia Cup’s first sponsor and has continued to sponsor the competition each year. We are proud to have Altus Metrum as a sponsor and want to thank Bdale Garbee and Keith Packard for their continued support!
