    RInc for plane alignment?

    Yeah I haven't tried docking or entry yet...still just focusing on launch and intercept. Probably try those two next. Any tips on the IMFD display? A

    RInc for plane alignment?

    HA I figured that was my problem. The manual says "If you're too far off..." but it doesn't give a reference. I figured 19.5 was pretty bad given every time I'd burn I could decrease it by a degree or two only. I'm trying to find the Launch MFD so I can time my launch properly but it's not...

    2 questions about MFDs

    1 - I've downloaded the IMFD from here and unpacked it into my orbiter folder on my desk top twice but I can't seem to find it in the shuttle or SSU. The manual says I should run the .cfg but I can't seem to find it. Am I installing it wrong or using the wrong version? I hit SHIFT-I to try to...

    RInc for plane alignment?

    My RInc is 19.5, as I'm trying to intercept ISS with Atlantis and I keep running out of gas before I can line up. Am I burning wrong or just WAY off? Thanks, A

    Thanks again. I know how silly it is to provide answers that are literally staring people in the face. :P FYI This time I ended up near the southern tip of Africa. Longer flight time but ultimately the same out come. Good thing I don't work for NASA. A

    "Happy orbiting"...ha easy for you to say...you don't keep plummeting to the ground somewhere in the Yukon moments after you jettison your tank :D Needless to say I am still quite confused. What are Shuttle Fleet or Space Shuttle Ultra? Orbiter addons or other sims. It looked and sounded the...

    Hey all, Just found Orbiter and am truly hooked...though equally inexperienced. I'm fumbling my way through the manual etc and found the great you tube tutorial by Darian on launching the shuttle. I know I'm supposed to start with the glider, other threads here say that anyhow, but I'm just...
