Magnetic control for spinning 3-unit science CubeSat

A control system is designed and validated for a 3-unit CubeSat science mission. Utilizing three magnetorquers and one reaction wheel the system achieves a 6 rotation per minute spin rate and orbit normal pointing vector of the long axis of a 3-unit CubeSat. The design is validated across an evoluti...
