1U Cubesat Propulsion System

Our 1U Propulsion System is a clean-sheet design, purpose-built for CubeSat platforms. At its heart sits a 1 N thruster operating on our proprietary Etanox propellant, delivering exceptional performance in a compact form factor. The system features redundant, radiation-tolerant electronics for dependable operation in harsh orbital environments and a robust architecture designed for long-term reliability.

All subsystems are fully contained within a 1U volume, enabling seamless mechanical and electrical integration with standard CubeSat structures. The modular design simplifies installation and testing, while built-in safety and diagnostic features ensure confidence during launch and in-orbit operation. Engineered for high performance and low complexity, the 1U Propulsion System provides a plug-and-play solution for precise orbit control, collision avoidance, and deorbit maneuvers.

2U Cubesat Propulsion System

Our 2U Propulsion System builds on the architecture of our 1U platform, offering increased propellant capacity and extended mission capability with minimal increase in cost and complexity. The design retains the same core components—including the Etanox thruster, radiation-tolerant redundant electronics, and integrated safety systems—ensuring consistent reliability and performance.

By stretching the structure to 2U, the system provides significantly higher total impulse and longer operational lifetime while maintaining the same mechanical and electrical interfaces for effortless integration. Its modular design allows easy scaling without redesign or additional qualification, making it an ideal solution for missions requiring greater delta-v, longer duration, or more demanding maneuvering profiles.

The 2U system combines efficiency, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, delivering a high-performance propulsion solution for advanced satellite missions with minimal engineering overhead.
