Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.I need some tips. Help me save myself from pulling up the default docking MFD and cheating. I get to the MC4 burn, and all is well... -
This is the EL/AZ coordinate system, so looking at that display is like looking up thru the overhead windows. E.g., if the AZ needle...

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.So it's called the line of site rates display....didn't think it would be that easy coming from a government agency. 😄 So how is it...

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.What is this called? Anybody have any tips how it's used when rendezvousing? I've managed to meet the ISS at what seems like a...

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.Oh OK. I thought we were supposed to only use spherical gravity. I'll play around with changing both to non-spherical gravity. Thanks.

When using non-spherical gravity this sort of RInc after insertion can be completely normal. Both Shuttle and target are affected by...

Well, there are 2 factors in Orbiter that make those things^^^ not necesarily good enough. First is the time: Orbiter uses TBD, and the...

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.Thanks for explaining that. I do have one follow up question. When I set up the STS-101 FDO mission file, I didn't understand which...

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.Thanks for the info! It's a STS-101 scenario I'm playing around with. I just checked, and I have spherical gravity selected for both...

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.Thanks that clears things up for me. And I heartily agree, that re-calculating before each burn is an absolute must for an accurate PAD.

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.So for example, after MECO/dump you could set up everything for the OMS-2 burn, fix the sunset TIG and correct Ti DVZ, and then save...

If you calculate the sequence of maneuvers before OMS-2, then generate Maneuver PADs for all of them and just perform them like that for...

Tim13 replied to the thread Project Space Shuttle Vessel.One more question while I've got you on the line so to speak. I've read the FDO manual about 20 times, and learn something new each...
