Hi guys! I finally made a video! It took about a day to make, with recording, and editing everything. I hope you enjoy this, David413, because I really enjoy the Shuttle Fleet! I know there are some errors such as, "Booster officer reports good so-", and ET separation, but I really thought that someone should make a video, saying thanks to him. I hope you like it!




EDIT: I don't know what happened to the audio... that last song should have lasted till the end, but oh well. :)
 
on your next video press I to disable that yellow text
 
^^ Shoot! :lol: I didn't mean to leave it up! A lot of times I forget, and I just want to check the time acceleration, I didn't want it to take 83 minutes to get to orbit!
 
it takes 8 minutes to get to orbit
 
I know, but with time acceleration on .1, it would take 83 minutes. (8.5 minutesx10)

Not really. It takes that to reach MECO.

Right after MECO you either start OMS-1 burn or just climb until apoapsis to circularize orbit (it would be called OMS-2 for an OMS-1 ascent profile).

This is my tribute to David413

Wait you are meant to do an oms burn after meco ? thats why I never get in to a good orbit with the shuttle fleet

There are 2 ascent profiles:
Direct ascent: You use ET fuel to raise apoapsis to desired altitude, which means that at about 100km when you roll, you disable autopilot and pitch up to raise apoapsis. It is specially true if you carry a payload.
When you are about to reach apoapsis you make a prograde burn to curcularize orbit.

OMS-1 required: You fly inverted until MECO. After ET SEP you point your nose in a certain direction between prograde an zenith that should not change your periapsis and you raise apoapsis with an OMS burn (OMS-1).
At apoapsis you perform OMS-2 burn.

It is in my tutorial.
