About
Spacemanic’s 12U–16U platform is the flagship CubeSat bus in the Tatry family, engineered for demanding applications including high-resolution imaging, advanced communications payloads, and in-orbit technology validation. The 12U configuration provides 8.5U of payload volume with up to 16 kg payload mass; the 16U configuration delivers 12.5U payload volume and up to 22 kg. Both variants offer full X-Band, S-Band, L-Band, UHF/VHF communications and configurable 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V power rails with more than 48 Wh of on-board energy storage. CSP v1 interfaces (I2C, RS-485, CAN) allow flexible integration of third-party payload subsystems.
