In recent years, the research on flexible large space structure is rapidly advanced in many country. Nihon university has launched a nano-satellite named "SPROUT" which demonstrates a concept of a flexible space structure. The main mission of SPROUT is deployment of a triangular membrane combined with inflatable tubes. In order to utilize the results of the on-orbit demonstration for the realization of flexible large space structure, it is important to predict the deployment motion in advance on the ground. There are several prediction methods, e.g. numerical simulation and experiment by using the small conceptual model. In this paper, the author proposes a new prediction method by the combination of 1G experiment and the microgravity experiment with ambient.
