Coupled momentum
The motor applies equal-and-opposite torque to the wheel and CubeSat body. Wheel limiting preserves total angular momentum before external torques are applied.

The motor applies equal-and-opposite torque to the wheel and CubeSat body. Wheel limiting preserves total angular momentum before external torques are applied.
PWM deadband, slew, bus voltage, current limit, winding resistance and back-EMF shape the available motor torque.
Mission, difficulty, calibration, simulator and scoring versions are recorded so a run can be reproduced from the same approved seed.
