About
Spacemanic’s 6U–8U CubeSat platform is designed for missions requiring more complex payloads and extended capabilities, including Earth observation, advanced technology demonstrations, and multi-instrument experiments. The 6U configuration provides 4U of payload volume and up to 7.5 kg payload mass, while the 8U variant offers 6U payload volume and up to 10 kg. Both platforms support UHF/VHF, S-Band, L-Band, and X-Band communication options and provide configurable power outputs at 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V through multiple PSU channels. CSP v1 data interfaces (I2C, RS-485, CAN) enable modular subsystem integration. The platform is built on Spacemanic’s proven hardware stack used across multiple Tatry-family missions.
