Struts as Heat Spreaders
This is a stable release. By that, I mean that there are no errors in the top-level assembly.
The struts from the +X face have been added to all frames. The intent is that the solar panels will be thermal-epoxied to the struts to dump solar heat.
vibration/weight enhancements
This is (approximately) just before the 2018 antenna capstone started working on OreSat.
- This keeps the same form factor as previous versions.
- It uses far fewer fasteners to attach the +/-Y frames to the -X frame (total of 4).
- It avoids (in all cases) putting fasteners on the same slot that a solar panel or backplane screw hole sits on. Thus, all holes (except for the counter-bores) may be drilled as through holes.
- The +/-Y frames also now have slots cut out to reduce mass.
- The slots for the cards no longer create 0.4 mm thin features. (It's now 1 mm.)
- The +X frame now features hold-down beams, which prevent the +X sides of the cards from vibrating by holding them with slots similar to those on the +/-Y frames.
SolidWorks migration
This is the state of the model after migrating back form STEP to SolidWorks. It is essentially the same as v0.5.
