You can use Fraps and my flightplan You can use Fraps to record the flight, and my flightplan. My flightplan will get you to into an LEO that requires only two 30 second burns to adjust orbit and the orbital plane alignment after tank seperation. After that you will have to rendezvous...

Im not seeing any feedback Im not seeing any feedback Can I get some feedback on this tutorial. 3,833 viewers makes this the most popular thread I think. Some of you should chime in and let me know if this helps or not. Thanks in advance.

Is anyone learning different flights ? Is anyone learning different flights ? Hello all, I am looking for a community of people here who can test this proccess and who will record thier launch data and who will edit thier flighplans to get a more effecient launch program. Any help is...

Try my autopilot Try my autopilot If you want to know the physics behind how to get into orbit then the above messages are correct, and for a manual launch they are great! However, if you want to do it the way the real Space Shuttle missions are done, you will have to consent that a manual...

Exactly What When you get to the moon and you notice the Earth has gone behind the moon you would (if actually there) experience a Loss of Signal (LOS). You will want to make preperations to do your LOI burn. You can use IMFD's Orbit Insert program and set the reference to the Moon if its...

Hi Ya if you follow the instructions from the first post it explains that there are already code examples in its flightplans folder. I took one of its included flightplans and changed it to control the Space Shuttle Atlantis and put it into orbit. No addon ships were used just the default...

It actually does Ya I know. I havent been able to work on this change. I opted for finding the final heading and shooting for that by the time the burn stopped. The AP holds that heading the entire time and puts me within 60 second burn to the plane after orbit. This is acceptable to me for...

Mainboard Cuttoff Mainboard Cuttoff Ok I have found the perfect Azimuth for rendezvous with the ISS in early 2001. You must re-save your scenario at this time which turns out to be T-596s to ISS's plane interception with the Cape. Make your scenario to start at UT Friday Mar 16 06:25:03 and...

Ok the hatch is closed..........and verified secure Ok the hatch is closed..........and verified secure. Cool. Im happy to be an inspiration at any time. Make sure you give your thanks to the guy that wrote the MFD that allows us to do these flightplans. He is the real hero. I just "stood on...

STS-101 to ISS Launch Program -0010 STS-101 to ISS Launch Program -0010 Ya Ill repost it now Ya sorry. I had to work on the orbital flightplan a little more before releasing it. I can't get the Shuttle to roll heads down. My description of the flightplan mentions that it will roll heads...

typical Shuttle / ISS Mission launch track typical Shuttle / ISS Mission launch track I have been looking to make my automated Space Shuttle Atlantis Launch to be close to what a typical Shuttle to ISS launch track is and have found this set of data from here...

Wahooo! Thanks!! Wahooo! Thanks!! This has become kind of an obsession to me. Im working on different launch types and checking the efficency with Recording MFDs. Still working on a good launch into a 90* azimuth. Ill post it here when Im done. Thanks.

Where is everyone? Hello all, I have been working on this process for a while now. I am confident at this point that I can now post a Liftoff Autopilot for a window that will get the Space Shuttle into an ISS rendezvous. I will post this later on. Thanks.

How to use Sonicboom addon? Does anyone know how to make the sonicboom addon downloadable here: orbSonicBoom.zip work for the default Space Shuttle. I have read the readme.txt but I cant seem to make it work. Anyone here able to help with this?

Good I hope it works Good I hope it works for you. Keep me posted if you need anymore help.

Awaiting feedback. Awaiting feedback. Can anyone offer some testing of this process? I would like to see if it works for everyone. Or feedback on what this does for them. Thanks in advance.

Ok Ill post the tutorial Ok Ill post the tutorial above. Thanks

Launch AP for built in Atlantis STS-101 using AutopilotMFD Gentlemen, I am happy to announce that there is a way to control the default STS-101 Atlantis included with the latest version of Orbiter. With a few installs of some essential MFDs, you can find yourself on a trip to the ISS and...

Yes but... Yes but... I have seen the video too. This is exactly what the proceedure tells you to do. But, why switch the date timming to MJD from GET? The are equivilants to eachother. What doest this step do for us? I left mine as GET and then I was able to set the GET intercept...

I have used these scenarios too. TeddyJohn, could you explain how you decide what your interception time is (GET) to get to Mars. The EuropaToCallisto scenarios show how to set up IMFD to get to Callisto, but the transfer time is much greater to go to Mars. How do you figure your coast time for...
