More on Orbiter 2016 & 3rd Party MFDs For those of us who like to return home from a flight into outer space, does BaseSync, GS2 and Aerobrake work in Orbiter 2016? :sos:

Auto Atmospheric Air Traffic Control I would love to see Controller Script MFD send its instructions to UAP MFD or AutopilotMFD 1.7 for automated flight at launch and/or landing. Or perhaps GS2 to UAP (Aerial state hold).

Thanks PC, some time ago before the nifty UAP I sometimes used a combination of Attitude MFD and AlignPlaneII MFD to do plane alignments. The approach still uses autopilots but there is some manual technique involved. I'll have read up again since I've haven't used AlignPlaneII in years...

I know very little about orbital mechanics and rely mostly on procedures and autopilots such as UAP and LOLA. This very interesting ship (from a great movie franchise) seems to continuously rotate when attempting to attain a normal or anti-normal alignment and it is therefore impossible to...

Mars Autolanding Thank you Cras for the solution! I changed the hover engine switch on the DGIV from Auto to Open and PursuitMFD was able to perform a smooth as silk landing on Mars. I guess I was afraid to "fully" open the hover doors on reentry but I should have recognized the significant...

Nice MFD Nice Name As a happy user of Attitude MFD I was very pleased to see the Landing Autopilot in Pursuit MFD and it's potential for a Mars Landing. I was able to make a "sucessful" Mars Landing with my DGIV but using only the main engine and the landing was in the tail sitter position...

I haven't done much with UCGO yet except marvel. It looks like UCGO does not like the autopilotmfd. I use that ol' standby to taxi to the runway and for runway landings upon reentry with the DGIV. I hope I can come up with some workaround procedures... RR

Using the Latest Version Hi Artlav, I'm using the version at OH which is the lastest version? The link on this thread is not the latest, right? Ceres V2 can be found at that great Mustard Addon web site and it might be found at OH as well. I hope these two addons can work together. Rrichard

Show Docking Ports What a great Add-On! I've only used it twice and it works great on the ISS but it does a CTD when trying to use it on the Ceres space station which has twelve docking ports. Has anyone else had problems on Ceres?:(
