    Request SOS Scenarios

    While I was testing the SRM loadouts, the first time I got into this rollover i dumped the cargo overboard then landed safely, it was so desperate it was funny:rofl:. Then I tried landing with the cargo in one piece, it's harder than I thought, broke the landing gear several times... but got a...

    Request SOS Scenarios

    I got a funny SOS yesterday, i was seeing if I could reach an orbit with the XR5 in expert settings with 800 tons of cargo. Why? So it could refuel an Arrow 18 in one go :thumbup:, so I strapped a lot of SRM to manage the climb to scram altitude to conserve my fuel. I got the right...

    Request Blackouts and Redouts

    Yeah, I know about the one in the DG-IV, but even while the tertiary HUD says you're in a G-LOC you neither lose control of the ship nor have visual effects of it (screen goes black), except when you die during a G-LOC in a DG-IV '-' I was thinking on something simple, like, just the screen...

    Request Blackouts and Redouts

    You know... It would be really nice if you started experiencing a blackout due to high G's in a reentry, especially while doing an inverted reentry, not to mention on the launch phase too... Could it be doable for Orbiter?

    You're addicted to orbiter when you use a video like this as a wallpaper. YouTube - Orbiting Mars I have to work on the video quality now... Anybody has any good advices?

    General Question XR2 with SRB

    Every time I try to load a scenery with an XR2 with a SRB added from Velcro Rockets it crashes orbiter. Using orbiter 2006 it works fine, but in 2010 it crashes. Scenario looks like this. BEGIN_DESC XR2 Ravenstar strapped to SRB to boost it to scram engine start altitude and speed. To take off...

    Flight Question what is the altitude of the geostationary orbit on Mars?

    Due to the fact that Jupiter is so large and spins relatively fast, i think a "geostationary orbit" in it would lie deep within it's atmosphere... There goes your plans of putting satellites there :lol: EDIT : Forgot to consider Jupiter's mass, calculated it should give r=83663 Km, i used...

    XR-2 ascent and reentry tips

    I do exactly the same, adding that after the pull up I try to mantain the Angle of Attack as close to zero as possible, since that is the way the spacecraft generates less drag and you'll be generating a lot of drag while flying under dynamic pressures of more than 50KPa.

    To lunar orbit without the LOI Burn?

    I was wondering some time ago if it was possible to launch a spacecraft from Earth and do a lunar transfer without needing to do a LOI Burn to be captured by the Moon's gravity and enter a stable orbit around it. Then I came across this text...

    Bug Problem with SyncOrbitMFD and UCGO Arrow

    I'm getting exactly the same problem as you do Kaito, I tried doing a rendezvous with the Arrow multiple times using the Sync Orbit MFD with no success. I did put the Arrow in my scenario with the Scenario Editor in the same way you did. I'm uploading the scenario so if anyone wants to take a...

    Heya!

    Just wanted to introduce and talk a little about myself before posting anything on other areas of the Forums. :) Hello, I'm from Brazil, I'm 19 years old and since I was 8 I know how to fly, managed to learn things alone from a copy of Flight Simulator 98 my father bought for himself. Nowadays...
