I´ll check what I did... About the ISS light, it´s because the G&N is powered down (GET 171:20:00)

Hello, I just experienced an O2 flow high light, wich I don´t know where it comes from. Maybe I have some switch wrong on the ECS. It happened after the termination of the secondary coolant loop test, around five minutes before the attaches scenario begins. Can you guys check it and tell me...

Could you provide an scenario (quicksave) of the run so that Houston (the dev guys) can analise it?

Yabadabadooo!!

Thanks again for the quick reply! So, I should +X 15 seconds before the burn, as per flightplan? And press the button on the last second of the ullage... Will try that!

Well I haven´t got seriously into planning things, but the first things that I should fix are some CTD´s on certain conditions, and problems with using XR spacecrafts that I encountered last summer when I was testing OrbConnect with Orbiter 2016. Also, for the setters of setsurfacelevel or...

Hello all, I am encountering a difficulty during SPS-3, that is when I press the THRUST ON button as per the checklist, my engine doesn´t fire. I think that I am doing something wrong but I don´t know what it is. My SPS line heaters are on A/B but even if I turn them off before the burn my...

Yeah, I am still interested in continuing the project. But I am really busy right now, maybe on autumn I can start to update it.

Here is another boring video (had to record without music) of the whole process from GET 26:00:00, including the first two SPS burns. For the first one I switched on the two normal thrust switches at T-2 minutes as per the flightplan. I believe this was because they wanted to ensure an ignition...

Hello, The "tomorrow" seems to be today, I am a busy man... Here is the video of a partialy successful rendezvous, from GET 26:00:00 And I have a question about V83. How accurate is it? If you watch the last minutes of the video you see me hitting the brakes really hard. I wasn´t aware I...

You can see a "demo" of how P23, Earth Landmark is performed on Apollo 8 on the following video of my attempt to do the mission on realtime. I used NASSP 7, but well, the things you have to enter on the AGC should be the same. This is based on the information contained on the thread that...

Correct, those are called perturbations. A perfect-circular orbit does not exist. That is why your ApA and PeA is moving.

So, today I tried again from GET 26:00:00 hours (did the two SPS burns) and I can confirm that on the previous attempt, a burn was screwed up. Having the GDC aligned helped a lot, and also I found a way to find the S-IVB when you are requested to look at it through COAS. I take a note of the...

After thinking about my issues, I will do the rendezvous again, starting from before the first SPS burn, and I will do one or two GDC aligments to the IMU when I have a chance between GET+26 hours and GET+28 hours. I recall having an issue during the second SPS burn and I think I screwed up the...

Hello, I did another run today and I got further down the road to the S-IVB. But I must have screwed up something on P35, because at T+18 I got an enourmous DV. Also I got Operator Error lights when I started using P35. I don´t know what I did wrong... You can see those things around...

Thanks for the answer! Very helpful!

Hello all, I post a slightly long and boring video, where I show a strange issue I am encountering during my Apollo 7 rendezvous practice sessions. Problems start around "T-48" (around minute 29 on the video) where I am instructed to update ORDEAL. I switch to CMC - FREE to maneuver the...

Hello all, I have a question regarding the Apollo 7 flightplan shown on Checklist MFD. There, it doesn´t show the Day & Night Retro Attitude test, that is scheduled to be performed at 6 hours 5 minutes and 6 hours 40 minutes into the mission. Is this a known issue and these items will be added...

I also remember reading that for the Shuttle, FDO (and I think some other "important" controllers, maybe Booster?) could send an "Abort Request" signal to the FD console, so that he could confirm the abort and give the call via Capcom to the crew, and then confirm the abort. Then, once...

Aha, just a light... Good to know! I guess that in the future it could turn on at that particular time on the checklist?
