However, now I am stuck with the question what the standards are for mounting hardware in cubesat structures.
I don't have a cubesat (for the moment) because they are not in the cheap price class for me as a ham. On the other hand I have no experience in any cubesat project, and don't know all the ins and outs.
Maybe some cubesat expert can give me an idea how to make my final PCB (screw holes, sizes) in an efficient way to have my 7cm x 7cm x 0.4cm fit in other cubesat projects, in case some group will be interrested.
Beside my analog transponder I also like to have a pacsat system, to have it together in my future own cubesat. The pacsat system is an efficient system and I think its worth to have it back again.
Does anyone know if there is a group or ham that made (can make) such a system in cubesat format ? With todays small sized, low voltage, high speed and high amount of memory processors it should be no problem for a digital guru I guess. (I mean the pacsat system like KO-23/25 alike).
