Magnetic Drive

A method for ensuring the survivability of the spacecraft attitude control system with a minimally redundant cluster of flywheels by General Electric scheme and a magnetic drive in the event of the flywheels' failures is presented. The results of computer simulation were obtained and it was found that in case of failure of any two flywheels, the Earth survey satellite retains the ability to scanning observation given targets.
