    Problem XR2 brakes ineffective Orbiter 2016

    Thanks for all your help guys. I think that I was just expecting the XR2 to brake like the Delta Glider. I tried again last night with the atmospheric wind effects turned off and less than 50% fuel and was able to stop about 3/4 along the runway. It seems that all I need to do now is practise...

    Problem XR2 brakes ineffective Orbiter 2016

    Thanks guys but that didn't seem to help. Changed:- MaxWheelbrakeForce=2.0e5 WheelSurfaceFrictionCoeff=0.1 Nothing seems to have changed. As soon as the XR2 is moving it seems to slide to the right which I can correct with yaw but the wheel brakes still don't stop the vessel. The stock DG...

    Problem XR2 brakes ineffective Orbiter 2016

    I am attempting to learn to fly the XR2 by flying around KSC. I can land back on the runway smoothly but the wheel brakes do not stop the vessel and I skid off to the side in most cases. Am I missing something? Running Orbiter 2016 clean install with latest D3D9 client with the Sound and DGIV...

    Update Updated XR Vessels for Orbiter 2016 Released

    I am still having a braking problem with the XR vessels using the latest downloads. The wheel brake effectiveness seems to be a lot less than the standard DG so the XR1/2 takes forever to bring to a stop. Is this normal? Any suggestions gratefully received.

    Question Orbiter 2016 & 3rd party MFDs

    I've just installed the new Orbiter 2016 with D3D9Client and it works fine. Can anyone tell me which 3rd party MFDs are compatible with the latest Orbiter version and how to get them to work? I found IMFD and LTMFD but can't find any more. Can anyone assist? Thanks

    Problem IMFD Tutorial Help

    I finally worked it out! I had the wrong version of IMFD ticked in Modules :facepalm: I had version 4.2.1 instead of an Orbiter 2010 compatible version. Works like a dream now.

    Problem IMFD Tutorial Help

    Hi guys, I am a beginner with Orbiter and trying to learn IMFD usage. Going through a tutorial on IMFD 4.2.1 by Jose Pablo Luna Sanchez, the first section about travelling to Mercury. I follow every action and button press, get to Orbit Eject, select Course and wait until projected course does...

    TransX TransX For Dummies

    I looked at IMFD and it seemed just as difficult to learn as TransX but probably worth a second look. I had a light bulb moment yesterday when I followed along with the ISS intercept video and completed the prograde transfer by myself and even managed to dock! :) Will check out Transfer MFD...

    TransX TransX For Dummies

    Yep, still trying but not really sure what all the colours and lines on the MFD signify just yet. Will watch some more videos and hope it all sinks in. Have tried the Flytandem 'Lunar Return' scenario a few times but I'm just pushing buttons without understanding what is happening. May have to...

    TransX TransX For Dummies

    Hi guys, I am looking for a really basic tutorial for using TransX. I have gone through lots of simpler tutorials already and can do all the basic stuff but interplanetary travel seems to be beyond me. I have read the manual, tried to go through TransX tutorials and even watched some TransX...
