CAD enhancement help wanted

Joedang commented Mar 14, 2017

As per @jalouke:

it should ultimately be re-made, because I really only drew the version that was originally in the 2U model as a first draft.

critical dimensions within the reaction wheel system are the angles of the reaction wheels

The new requirements are:

It has to copy the existing orientations for the reaction wheels.
It needs to interface with the OreSat structure. (i.e., it should either attach to a PCB of the appropriate shape or offer protrusions of the same shape/thickness. It should not collide with the slots/connectors of the structure or the backplane.)
It needs to be manufacturable.
It can't outgas.
It should not be affected by UV light.
It should probably be 'grounded' to the structure.

I imagine machining it out of aluminum, FR4, G10, or something similar would be best.

I also imagine this is of interest to @JSRoland and @calvin-young.
