ORBITER-FORUM will be temporarily closed at 2026-07-23 18:00 UTC while we complete some OF maintenance tasks. The amount of downtime is expected to take up to one hour, but probably less.
Dear STS I watched and re-watched your two videos but still cannot figured out what you are aiming for when firing the RCS jests in min impulse mode…what do you want to accomplishes when you fire them?
I was used to do P23 star/horizon in the following manner (a sort of my interpretation of all...
thank you very very much n72, you saved my day, now I know I am ready to start the new endeavor, I did correctly all steps and don't need change the computer...as you said I will keep orbiter sound 5 for the time being, if crashes will arises i will inform the forum about it after cross checking...
Hi there, I am sorry but I am facing a new problem for which I would ask for your kind help.
I decided to start studying and practicing Apollo 9-10-11 from scratch, until now I only managed Apollo 8 and partially Apollo 7 (still ongoing) with NASSP v7 and Orbiter2010P1, so NASSP on Orbiter2016...
Hi, just completed Apollo 8 with NASSP v7.0, time to move on to learn the LM.
I downloaded the latest NASSP v8.0 beta 1537 ... and I just tried to have a look at the LM interior to starting localizing the switches and controls....but I have immediately a question: when I go to the AOT view it...
:SORRY...forget my last post: I didn't have a look at the final mission reports for Apollo 8 .... everything is written there, i will download also all final mission reports of Apollo 7 and I am sure i will find all information there. Thanks again. Paolo
Hi, Thank you, it worked. After splashdown I push EMS on the PAMFD and upon exiting the simulation I found in the main directory the file .... next question is: where can I found the "reference" EMS scroll entry papers of real Apollo missions? as I am doing only A7 and A8 for the time being I...
Hi, I DID IT, CANT BELIEVE IT....almost 6 years before being able to entry ... ahahaha... I reentry from Apollo 8 ... ok not really where I was suppose to be but it doesn't matter, next time I will try to understand better how to improve the landing point accuracy...anyway I saw some people in...
Hi, actually sorry to give you wrong information, but as I said your video worked for me as a tutorial and thanks to it and your latest comments I understood what I was doing wrong all times when using P23 with landmarks; also the real G&C checklists at page 20 of the document "A8-CMP...
Thank you for you encouraging words...you gave me HOPE....and thanks for the tips for A7 rendezvous I will keep them in mind when I will give it a try....
actually sorry again, I rechecked you vdieo, I think you superimpsoe the start 15 to the LMK 210, but when F05 71 you still has in R2 the old code 110 .... so surely if you load V22E 00210E I think you Dr and Dv should be much less than before.
actually, if I may ask, it would be possible for you to put also a similar video for P23 when you have to mark a star and an horizon ??? as you know during TLI and TEI there are a lot of marks to do but I always got troubled results with DR and DV .... sometimes 0000x and sometime even more than...
Hi not sure if you have already figured out by yourself, but as far as I understood looking at your video (GREAT BY THE WAY....nice tutorial) you entered the LMK code 00110 and the star 15, but later on when you superimpose the start 15 on the LMK, i saw that you put it onto the LMK with code...
Thanks to all of you...I will try as you suggested .... i will try with quicksave as well as with save in the scenario editor ... anyway for the time being I am using only Apollo7 and 8 in NASSP v7.0 on Orbiter 2010P1 ... if (eventually and hopefully) I will mange to make a safe reentry I will...
Hi to ALL,
I am sorry to ask this silly question but I have some doubts about what I am doing ... due to the long time to complete a mission I had to save many times the mission I am doing at different stages ... normally when I want to save the scenario at the stage I am, I just make sure the...
thanks for the advice, up to 30x I am ok, higher than that I got weird things going on with the FDAI balls ... once I managed to go up to x60 using MissionTimer.MFD, but now even using that above 30 is difficult ... maybe I was doing it not in the cockpit view...I didn't think about it. I will...
Hi all,
yes indeed I saw that I wrote wrong information last time, mixing numbers for CDUX 0, 180 and 270 ... sorry for the confusion.
anyway this time I started in EPO (Apollo7) in FDAI1 ORDEAL set up by V83 with R/P/Y=0/0/0, the yellow error needles were all centered, i didn't do V48 (let on...
Thank you again Indy for you replies.
about the missed star at MCC1 - I re-run the scenario I saved few hours earlier to cross check, and at the right time after getting the PAD and setting up the burn I saw the correct star in the right place, same at MCC3 (MCC2 was "scrubbed" so the PAS said)...
dear Indy,
thank you very much for you nice explanations and your time...something is clearer, and the doc is very interesting...I will print it and have a deep look, if still not clear how to handle it I will ask you again. :thumbup::cheers:
