GLS , in STS1 Press Kit I see OMS 3 and 4 in STS-1 FLIGHT SEQUENCE page , the question is what should i press on keypad in panel C3 ?

Those were just regular OMS burns in orbit. :shrug:
 
ok thanks GLS

guys , in SSU should I write Trim LOAD in OMS MNVR EXEC or only PEG 7 ?
 
Usual trim Load are 0.4 ° for Pitch , -5.7° for left OMS and +5.7 ° for right OMS in yaw
That is for a dual engine burn, to allow the nozzles to push parallel to the centre of gravity


For a single engine burn on left OMS, yaw trim would be +5.7 ° for left OMS

For a single engine burn on right OMS, yaw trim would be -5.7 ° for right OMS

That is to allow the single OMS to push through the center of gravity
 
ok thanks Gingin

btw Gingin this trim load for STS1 only or all STS ?
 
ok GLS , btw I have problem with ADI which mean I change Attitude from LVLH to INRTL but in ADI ATT indicator still LVLH can you fix it ?
 
ok thanks Gingin

It is a standard trim that you can find in latest checklist and scom.
It can vary a bit around those value mission and center of gravity depending.

But it will be very close to that , especially for’the Yaw component .

The ADI currenty only works in LVLH, so the switch has no practical effect.
 
Guys , Can I add Hydraulic QTY in APU.cpp ?
The hydraulic quantities don't really have much to do with the APUs... those would be state variables of the hydraulic system, which we still don't have. :facepalm:

If you want to make the hydraulics, by all means go ahead. But if you just want to see a few more green bars in the APU/HYD display, then I have to say "no thanks".
 
And we have no leakage... I am not sure, how much QTY we would have displayed in the minimum case without leakage, but I suspect over 95%....

(Just checked - the hydraulic actuators are ALL double acting)

I remember reading something about it, and it was a high value.
