Abstract The rigid body motion of CubeSat is strongly coupled with the elastic vibration of the flexible structure during the large angle attitude maneuver of the CubeSat. The drastic change of attitude will aggravate the jitter of the solar panel, which will then disrupt its stability. To deal with the contradictions between the rapidity and high-precision stability of large angle attitude maneuver of CubeSats and ensure the higher attitude pointing accuracy of the satellite after the attitude maneuver, this pape…
