Dear Nick. we have tried to use the Nitinol for our CubeSat but for our experience it is better to use the steel tape. If you want to have more details please contact us: gauss.group@gmail.com Thanks, Chantal

Does anyone on the list know if there is any trade off using nitinol  wire over steel tape for antennas on cube sats?

Thanks
