I am considering compressed air as a propulsion method for attitude control of a nanosatellite. Conceptual scheme is a wound filament reservoir with a two-stage pressure regulator and a manifold feeding two tri-axial nozzle clusters. controls by small solenoid operated valves.
Would appreciate any data on a similar concept.
