Is there a tutorial for orbital rendezvous with SSV ?
First, get Shuttle FDO MFD by
@indy91:
https://www.orbiter-forum.com/threads/shuttle-fdo-mfd.36912/
It handles both the ground-calculated burns (the early, usually large burns) and also the onboard-calculated burns (the ones on the day of the rendezvous).
SSV (again, thanks to
@indy91) also does the onboard calculations, just like the real Shuttle did, and you can try the final burns of the rendezvous using SPEC 34*, and a rendezvous checklist (
https://www.nasa.gov/centers/johnson/news/flightdatafiles/index.html), in the "Testing scenarios\Rendezvous testing scenario.scn" scenario.
Of note, there is no navigation to be performed yet, so there is no Star Tracker, Radar, state vector update, etc, to worry about. The Orbit DAP pointing capability isn't good enough to have the vehicle pointing at the target, like the real Shuttle did. The SSV ascent guidance is what it is, so hitting a target plane depends only on the launch time.
*) SPEC 34 looks menacing, but basically it calculates 2 burns to get the vehicle to a user-defined position and speed relative to a target. The way the rendezvous burns are performed is do the first burn of the profile as burn 1, then do the second burn
again as burn 1, etc, never actually performing the burn 2 until after the last burn in the profile, and only if you want to really hit target position and speed, as opposed to proceeding immediately closer for docking or grapple.
This is not a simple subject, and many failed rendezvous will happen before it works, but it is very rewarding to get to "something" up there.
On the Mission Editor error message: I hope to have sometime for that during the weekend.
