Summary
The Dragonfly Aerospace µDragonfly Bus is designed to provide stable and precise Earth imaging capability across a range of spectra. The system has an automated Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS) including a Xenon electric propulsion unit. Communication is enabled via an X-band data downlink and S-band TMTC, and the bus includes various electrical interfaces for simple integration with a range of payloads.
