RE: reaction wheels and CMG
I think like you but the mater is that in some articles I've red they have different ways to make change in direction.
Some one told me the CMG use moment vector and reaction wheels use reactions of motion?!
I want, I can, I do.

A CMG's speed is ostensibly constant, and torque is generated by changing the orientation of the spinning mass. A reaction wheel's torque is generated by changing the speed of rotation, which results in a reaction moment.

and I think the difference is in their way of control.
thanks a lot for your help

In either case, the platform "reacts" to the torque, and in both cases, the torque requires some action by the controller, either changing the orientation of the wheel, or changing the speed.
