Do anyone attempted something like that? Do you know if it is possible?

Hello everyone. I'm a begginner preparing my first trip to Jupiter (from Mars) I'm using a XR5 as vessel (Orbiter 2016). I already made several experiment with Oxigen payload (considering the trip duration it's quite an important factor) I assumed it would be the same with extra fuel but...

I've just landed on Mars with the XR2 and... Well I'm just considering that most likely SCRAM should not work in a 0.13% Oxigen atmosphere, not even considering the tremendously low pressure. I guess the way home should cost a lot of fuel.

Ok... I guess this is something that could be helpful for others too. Assuming you're in an LEO want to get to mars. I made the ejection plan on stage 2. Got a nice prediction and now I have to setup the manoeuvre. Fine with the Dv (it's just suggested so easy to setup) Fine with the Dt (I'll...

Hello everyone. I'm a newbie so maybe the answer I'm searching is just trivial. I've started using TransX looking at a couple tutorial/manual around. I was trying to calculate a Escape from Earth+Mars trajectory. My troubles are just at the beginning when trying to define a decent ejection...

Hello everyone. I'm quite a newbie so forgive the stupidity of questions. I saw that textures are pretty much all .DDS files I've found a converter from DDS to JPG but apparently the easiest way to produce a DDS is Gimp+Plugin. Do you know if there's an easy command line converter just to make...

Hello everyone. I tested Orbiter 2016 for a couple flight (XR2 vessel basically) and I'm having so much fun. I've noticed it's almost impossible to stop a spacecraft. This is particulary evident with the XR2 but it happens the same to me with the Shuttle-A. It's obviously a bug and I see other...

Nice to meet you all guys, this is Giovanni from Italy. I'm professional programmer pretty new to orbiter. Having fun with the new 2016 version.

Hello everyone. I'm quite a newbie of orbiter. I just followed with great interest David Curtney tutorial on youtube. I was going to download the XR-2 but apparently the version provided on altea aereospace site http://www.alteaaerospace.com/index-3.html is only for 2016 version. I tried to...
