About
The Pyxis Space Reaction Wheel is a miniaturised attitude control actuator designed for CubeSat and small satellite platforms. Its cubic 32 × 32 × 32 mm form factor and 100 g mass make it straightforward to integrate into 1U–6U buses. It delivers a maximum torque of 2 mNm and a rated angular momentum of 5 mNms, communicating via CAN 2.0B. It pairs directly with Pyxis sun sensors and earth horizon sensors as part of a complete ADCS suite.
