  1. State-Feedback Control of the SpaceHawk Earth-Based Lunar Hopper Andrew Abraham, May 2013

  2. Background • Researching the dynamics and controls associated with a ‘hopping’ spacecraft trajectory OBSTACLE Location A Location B

  3. Background • 1967- Surveyor 6 has been the only spacecraft to ‘hop’ • - Travelled 8 ft. • Conventional landers are designed to be rovers constrained to the ground • - Disadvantageous for exploring Mars Exploration Rover Surveyor 6

  4. Specifications • 4 ducted fans; each with 10lbs of thrust @ full throttle • Fans Produce ZERO torque @ 75% • Gimbaled in 1 direction • Frame made from aluminum • Easy to construct • Total weight: 32lbs • 26” From end to end

  5. Specifications • Arduino Mega for control computer • MEMS IMU • 4 LiPoly Batteries: 2.25lbs each • ICE 80amp Electronic Speed Controller • Project funded by NASA Arduino Mega 6 DOF Analog IMU 1 of 4 LiPo Batteries
