Hello,
I wonder myself if MFD Align Plane II v 1.2 (including an Autopilot to align orbital planes) works with the ship DG IV ? The documentation says it is ok with the ship DG III. Thanks for your help. |

Hello,
After Inc and LAN inputs, I did RUN (calculations), then I centered with the button FD the attitude screen FDAI (the cross was perfectly at center Roll - Yaw - Pitch), then I engaged the autopilot MFD Align Planes II (with the button PLT) but it aborts, at the end of the countdown. I have also checked the attitude cross 30 seconds before the end of the countdown, and it was perfect : the attitude indicator always green. I have tried several times with the ship DG IV, but the autopilot aborts again. The ship was on a circularized orbit before using MFD Align Plane II (the target and the ship DG IV orbiting around the Moon). I do not know where the file Orbiter.log is.

If you want an alignment autopilot, try , by Artlav.

Oh yes, Thanks !
UAP (release 0.3.1) works to do alignment, with a rinc_delta = 0,01. |

The UAP can't handle the space shuttle's 15 degrees of OMS engines' pitch. When using this MFD to AP the Atlantis, this will destroy the orbit.
Another problem is it can't track decent node launch azimuth(heading south)in launch and lift off. |
