Arduino CubeSat

Dec 2018

A 3D-printed miniature satellite prototype with working telemetry.

A prototype CubeSat built from scratch.

  • Hardware: Custom 3D printed frame designed to standard 1U specifications.
  • Comms: Implemented CW (Continuous Wave) telemetry using a 433MHz RF transmitter & receiver pair.
  • Goal: To understand satellite subsystems and telemetry encoding on a budget :p

CW Telemetry between 2 Arduinos through morse and sound

Replacing sound with an RF transmitter

6 years later, had to build something for college, so why not
