The document compares the specifications of three different satellite platforms offered by Tyvak: Trestles 6U, Trestles 12U, and Mavericks Microsats. The Trestles 6U can carry a 3kg payload with ~3U volume, while the Trestles 12U increases this to a 13kg payload with ~9U volume. The Mavericks Microsats are customizable for mission-specific payloads. All three platforms offer sun tracking solar arrays, precision positioning knowledge, and communication via UHF, S-Band, and optional X-Band or higher. However, the Microsats have more powerful solar arrays and payload capacity, as well as optional high data rate and storage capabilities. P
