Hello every body.
I am trying a Half Orbit Velocity Time calculation using the LaunchMFD on my XR2.
My goal is to start an ascent from Cape Canaveral, with SCRAMET engine. When I reach my Half Orbit Velocity Time, I stop all my engine, my ApA is about 50km. I want now to go back to Cape Canaveral, land, refuel my vessel and go back to another measurment. But each time, I burn in the atmosphere.
I then try a Abord Once Around return, but can't find how to calculate my trajectory for this. BaseSyncMFD cannot help me if I am not on a circulary orbit.
Do you have a idea that could helps me?
Thank you, and excuse my english.
 
I think it is possible to do what your trying to do; but remember how much energy you are expending to change your trajectory by that much. you might be better off landing at Ascension Island
