A deployment system for a CubeSat-compatible aerobrake is set out. The dynamic behavior of tape-springs wound a round a central hub is described and some of the developmental challenges in developing such a system, such as managing the rotation of the spool to prevent blooming, are discussed. The deployment rates of several systems are presented and the overall concept is shown to achieve deployment of a 1m2 drag sail for a mass of 372g and vertical dimension of around 0.4U. Finally, developments required to most fully realize some alternative applications. such as antenna structures and solar sailing, are considered.
