Yes - There are a lot of them! Flying a rendezvous and docking him inside the docking-bay may be the best of all. The usage of the scenario editor also is possible. You may have a look at the documentation that comes along with Orbiter, please. (ScenarioEditor.pdf 2.9 Docking Management) But...

Hello Mike; 1. No, every time you are starting a scenario it is back to its defaults 2. Yes, Display 7 (hit key D then 7) - "Programs shortcut setting" 3. PROG500SPEC0 only rotates your nose to the speed vector of an object and fires the main engine until relative speed becomes zero. If...

Yes, that's right. Cape's runways are moved slightly in Orbiter2010. Here's my way to work around: I have added a small file in ..\Orbiter\Config\Earth\Base\ named KSC33.cfg BASE-V2.0 Name = KSC33 Location = -80.68264 +28.59701 Size = 1000 MapObjectsToSphere = TRUE Now I only need to...

Seems to be OK now. Aerobrake shows a distance of around 2m instead of 140km on Mars if you are direct on target (measured near equator) :thumbup: And ReentryMFD starts to go wild (infinite Decel req) if the vessel is landed on target. I haven't tested the approach yet. :tiphat:

Dragonfly - yes, have done. Tranzit ?? Oh, there is another Orbiter-vessel with AMAZING I should give it a try :cheers:

Fortunately Dan has created an UMMU-spacesuit that has thrusters centered always on your last breakfast :lol:

:hesaid: If i would have to create a notebook with ($memory), ($gpupower)and ($cpupower) until ($date) in such a small box at lowest prices, i would say: "OK, i'll look what we can get at current market, then cut down the BIOS to values working with that equipment, and don't bother me with...

Lever - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A thruster with a given force at a given radius to your center may rotate you easily. But can it accelerate you linear (where the radius can't help) the same way? ;)

GPCMFD (OPS3/OPS4) ;) Isn't it part of the Shuttle Fleet Addon?? :leaving:

Recently noticed that there are two versions of GlideslopeMFD. An older with a debug-line displayed and hard coded bases/runways and a newer (2009) without debug-line that rereads the cfg. As far as i know the Shuttle Fleet alters the bases-configs on earth (otherwise AutoFCS wouldn't work)...

...as reentryMFD Hard to say... I couldn't find it anywhere. But i remember, i have tried it long time ago. A MFD that provides a little + on the direct approach line, but without HUD? It isn't listed in OH - or my eyes hardly need service:blink: However, is the misleading 2.39° to south...

Exactly that has been my reason to investigate it a little closer. If the axle of earth is allowed to swing around, the plane of equator couldn't be static to the ecliptic frame any longer.

Yes :thumbup: And for those who are still using Orbiter2006: Some background programms cause that bothering flashes. In my system some gadgets of the sidebar (i.e. weather if i remember right) were guilty for most of the flashes. So always keep your autostart as clean as possible and check...

@Moach Yes, you are right; But the align-MFD may help you to burn right in time and to avoid overburns. Also the OP, zeldafan156, asked for that: Last, not least: If somebody came in here (by forum-search i.e) with intention to make a more precise approach to geostationary orbit...

Good question! If you are going to install a very old addon things like that may happen. Since Orbiter2006 (or 2006p1 maybe, i couldn't remember right) bases can be installed by just adding them to ..\config\$planetname\base\ . In the older versions the bases where items of...

Things happen... - Pilots should just read their manual :yes: XR5 hover thrust 5860kN in vacuum ~4650kN at sea level in earth atmosphere empty mass 266400kg (no crew, no Passengers, no fuel, no freight!) A little fuel remaining + crew + cargo + vertical speed... Water can be hard as rock...

And exactly at this point most of the newbies are stumbling in always the same trap! You are talking about 0° inclination in an equatorial frame. But only the orbit-MFD may be switched between equatorial and ecliptical frame via FRM-button. Especialy the align-planes-MFD works ecliptical only...

Isn't wasted Just imagine our long-range-baby has had an at least half year journey when approaching the first available gas pump. I'm pretty sure she's needing much more service than only fuel. And, as said earlier, you will miss the smooth and accurate touchdown, even the arrangements you...

This happened to me yesterday: When i came back from mars (extensive testing of IMFD and aerobrake), i decided to refuel at brighton beach. The Arrow has taken almost one half of its fuel. After refueling i used AutoHover to climb about 100m before engaging full main thrust until vertical...

@woo482 Yeah - thats the trick :lol: But can you tell me please, how are you able to store 1.3m^3 exactly cubes side by side in a 2,5m wide (brutto) TEU? Must be a special paint - uh??
