About
The SPUTNIX OrbiCraft-Pro 3U Experimental (SXC3) is a complete 3U CubeSat satellite platform developed by SPUTNIX LLC. The ‘Experimental’ modification is an assembled and factory-verified 3U CubeSat unit with silicon (Si) solar panels, ready for payload integration and testing. It can operate as a laboratory model for educational purposes or as a development prototype for actual space missions. SPUTNIX has developed all on-board devices for the SXC1/3/6/12 platform line, with unified mechanical, electrical and information interfaces enabling rapid satellite design and assembly. All devices have received multiple flight qualifications. The platform is fully scalable and backward compatible within the entire OrbiCraft-Pro family.
