CubeSat Subsystem

Communication and Data storage

We will purchase the Xinabox XK07 kit which includes communication:

LoRa Radio at 915 MHz

CS11 Core with SD Card Interface.

We will also purchase a micro SD card to store data.

Computing and Payload

Hero 9 GoPro camera to capture images.

We will purchase the Xinabox XK07 kit which includes:

SG33 - VOC & ECO2 Sensor.

SI01 - IMU 9DoF - accelerometer, magnetometer, gyroscope

SL01 - UVA, UVB, Light Sensor

SW01 - Advanced Weather Sensor (temperature, pressure, relative humidity)

SN01 - GNSS Sensor (GPS)

Power

The Xinabox XK07 kit includes a PB04, a dual AA intelligent Battery Power Supply to power our XChips for monitoring .

Structure

We propose to 3D print the CubeSat structure using the Stratasys 3D printer and using ABS, Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene.

This is an Inventor isometric of the design with a “10” designed into the structure and inscribed with “BlueSky10” on the front right upper corner.

Launch

BlueSky10 will be launched and mounted to a DJI Inspire 2 Drone with a payload capacity of 9 lbs and will be remote controlled.
