5.7 is what I used throughout, and it did a good job with Titan. Often, however, I use Circularize even though I have to time it manually.

If you have watched a few IMFD tutorials, but are still confused, here is the simple information you need to know. I also discuss a few brief points about the Arrow itself; be assured the IMFD information works for other craft also. Before you reach the 10 minute mark, you will have the core...

I haven't seen any progress for about a year on this. Has Arrow development stalled? Are we waiting for Orbiter 2024?

I don't know whether to laugh or cry... Your detailed message (thank you very much) made me go, "What Arrow_orbital_scenerio.scn is he talking about?" which led me to go back to the thread about the new Arrow and... I had installed everything EXCEPT the new Arrow. The actual part the whole...

Trying to launch an Arrow-specific scenario provided by the download, yes. This is using a clean install -- no "old" anything.

Orbiter.log? Here 'tis!

Your post got me very excited. I went the whole hog. I made a new (clean) Orbiter 2016 install, followed all of the instructions precisely... And it CTD as soon as I load a scenario with the Arrow. Or, if I load a scenario with some other craft, the create an Arrow, it will CTD the instant I...

Recently returned to Orbiter after a very long absence. I did my research to remind myself how things work, and I've been using IMFD 5.5 with Orbiter 2010. I mostly use the old version because I enjoy the Arrow freighter so much. Things were going great. I flew the Arrow from Cape Canaveral...

It's been nearly two years since the last post here. I found this thread looking for DanSteph's Arrow freighter. What has happened? Is UCGO available for Orbiter 2016? If so, I can't find it.

Apologies for the necro-post. Perhaps this will breathe life into the thread. I think for me, I was bored one night. I was in China (2011-2020) teaching English by day, and playing on my PC by night. I was aimlessly following click-bait links when I encountered a video about UCGO, and...

It has been many years since I've played, but going through some old drives I found numerous tutorial videos I downloaded way back in the mists of time. Got to searching for current versions, and imagine my huge smile when I discovered that dansteph.658/ had updated the Arrow Freighter. That...

It's been twelve months since the last post here on this subject. I've reloaded Orbiter today (version 2016), and found and reinstalled the UCGO files. The arrow still doesn't load; but the website is still active... Any news folks?

That was an interesting thought, but I can confirm that it is not so. If the data displayed is not what it should be, the fault is not mine (I think). At least, it was definitely the Orbit Insert program I had opened in that top-right MFD in the first screen shot. The second screenshot was...

I now have a headache, but I think you all just solved the Origin of the Universe.:cheers: Now we know how the Big Bang got "wound up". I went reading and found the expression of coldest to hottest like this: +0 K, . . . , +300 K, . . . , +∞ K, −∞ K, . . . , −300 K, . . . , −0 K So we start...

I've been working the learning curve on the IMFD, and feel I have at last the basics correct. However, here is the second time I've had this problem with Orbit Insert, and this is after a clean install immediately prior to testing. I am running the mission UCGO Missions scenario : Enroute to...
