We build reliable smallsat platforms — three product lines, eighteen in orbit, a manifest through 2028. Configured in 6 weeks, integrated in 6 months, flight-heritage telemetry from every previous mission.
Helix-12, Helix-100 and Helix-150 — each a different mass and power class, all running the same tested flight-software stack. Swap payload, keep the avionics.
A 12U CubeSat bus. Deployable solars, 30 W orbit average, 0.1° pointing. The university-and-demonstrator platform.
A 100 kg-class bus. 280 W OAP, arcsecond pointing, propulsion option. The commercial Earth-obs workhorse.
A 150 kg-class bus with high-power OAP, chemical propulsion, and dual-payload accommodation. Constellation-ready.
Same subsystems across all three platforms — scaled up and down, but the same interfaces, same flight software, and the same engineering team keeping them all current.
Live telemetry snapshot from HELIX-3B — in orbit since March 2023. Power budget, thermal, reaction-wheel health on a still-flying platform.
“Helix-3B was our first H-100 platform. Three years on, the reaction-wheel desaturation schedule is still within predictions, and we're planning a fourth year of operations. Heritage isn't a brochure — it's a spacecraft still calling home.”Dr. Ishaan Rao, Chief Engineer · Helix Satellites
RW-4 went off-nominal at T+874d; a rebalancing manoeuvre held point-accuracy within spec while engineering reviewed. We publish flight-anomaly reports to our customer portal within 48 hours.
First conversation is always with an engineer. We'll triage your payload requirements against the three platforms and reply within five working days with a shortlist.
The more you can tell us, the faster we can converge. Most of this lives in the payload's ICD draft.
