Example: STS-96, docking is on the -R Bar after TORR maneuver. In order to do that ISS need to maintain the proper attitude with Unity Docking port facing "Up" (90 degrees form the velocity vector). In the scn I re-orient ISS and Shuttle to the proper attitude by either using UNIVPTG or ATTITUDE MFD with the necessary P,R,Y values, but as soon as I change Ship (selecting for example the Shuttle) or switch to another MFD, the ISS starts rotating and loses the target attitude. same thing happens with the Shuttle. I've tried to null angular velocity in the scenario editor after setting the proper attiude but that doesn't help either :(
How can i switch between MFD's and ships without losing the required attitudes?
 
Yeah I know, but none of those will put ISS or the Shuttle in the desired attitude!
 
Attitude MFD in Velocity mode will do it. It only works on the focused vessel but once the correct pitch is set it should be stable for 2-3 orbits.

If you are using V3.2. Last I checked, the Shuttle Fleet Expansion Pack included V3.0. Velocity mode was less stable in that version. You can safely install Attitude MFD V3.2 over the top of Shuttle Fleet.
 
Thanks for the tip tblaxland. V3.0 seems not to be really stable to me aswel. I'll try with V3.2.
