    Flight Question getting into orbit?

    I use the orbit MFD and try to get peri and apa almost equal. Ecc as close to zero as possible. Do the burn while in prograde, when you are getting close to apogee.

    Flight Question getting into orbit?

    I usually do OMS 2 burn manually. The autopilot doesn't seem to do it right. Type in do_oms2 = false in the luaconsole mfd and do it manually.

    Flight Question getting into orbit?

    I had the same problem when I first started. Make sure you have the limited fuel option checked in parameters. Shuttle is too heavy fully loaded to get into orbit.

    How did you find Orbiter?

    I found Orbiter a year or 2 ago after reading about it in Discover magazine. It was a section of the mag that shows good books, tv shows, or games related to science. Thank you Discover magazine for helping me discover Orbiter!

    Hello!

    Thanks for the warm welcome fellas! Tex, I've seen some of your videos. Awesome vids! You definitely got talent in video editing. I'll be around these parts more often now that I'm getting into the meat and bones of Orbiter. Right now, I'm still trying to master it. Eventually I want to be able...

    Hello!

    I'm new to the forums but I've been messing around with Orbiter for a year or 2. I'm still no expert in Orbiter though. I have launched and docked with the ISS, made successful lunar transfers, and got into Jupiter's orbit once. I still have a lot to learn. Looking forward to getting to know...

    I searched the forums and couldn't find any relevant answers. I have the Orbiter Beta 091124 - SRC 2.2. I also have Earth lvl 10 textures. I downloaded the Earth high-res night lights 2.0 and the instructions say this: First, you must edit your EARTH.CFG file (or any Earth CFG files you want...
