Question Any good autopilot addons for orbiter 2016?

[MarsGlider]

So I've recently got my orbiter 2016 working again and I'm bad at it again so I'm wondering if there is any autopilot addons (mainly for ascent) that I can use till I slightly begin getting my skills back. Also sorry if I'm posting in the wrong thread area I haven't been on these forums for a while.

HoverMFD is working great in Orbiter 2016.

Here is a related thread: Can you recommend some autolanding MFD for me?


The answers are:

• For horizontal landing: AutoFCS (2010, with the Shuttle Fleet), [ame="https://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=5969"]Glideslope MFD[/ame] (2010), [ame="https://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=6995"]Glideslope MFD[/ame] (2016)
• For vertical landing: [ame="https://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=5712"]Hover MFD[/ame] (2010), [ame="https://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=6993"]Hover MFD[/ame] (2016), [ame="https://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=5866"]Pursuit MFD[/ame] (2010 and 2016)

Glideslope is not an autopilot but an assitance if I remember correctly.

Alright I'll check some of them out.

Glideslope has autopilot for non atmospheric landings. It seems to work fine until hover descent then tends to go a bit mental, so best to manual control after that point.

It's not for accent but for lunar decent (Orbit to landing):

But should work also for other bodies without an atomothphere...

I wonder if this would work with the Space Shuttles.

It must be a very light celestial body if you want to land on it with a space shuttle if it has no atmothphere... :lol:
