I volunteer. :thumbup:

Yes the other autopilots you mentioned work fine: the AAP autopilots have a different function, as you mentioned, and in addition these functions can be called up by TerminalMFD and various parameters set for them. Problem is that clicking on the AAP buttons in the box sets the relevant...

Oh, great, another thing to anxiously, with bated breath and whispering humbleness, anticipate. Not like I (and many others I hope) don't have enough of this already. :yes: (Nice to see someone else using the old DG in all its glory, especially a certain someone). ---------- Post added at 01:13...

I don't know either. It doesn't. "][/URL]

Ah. Thanks. I really should read the add-on MFD documentation more thoroughly before I use it. :facepalm: ---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 PM ---------- Again thanks for the info. The next Mars mission, STP-004, will attempt a 220 day transfer, and get...

Hey thanks. Here's the view from the cockpit. Earth's much closer now. "][/URL] And . . . closer and closer. Running live in the background. "][/URL] Earth Orbit Achieved! "][/URL]

MJD 56529 The short story is . . . I (or should I say "we?") made it to Mars. Perhaps I shouldn't say anything. In fact, I think I am breaking a law by doing so. It is a secret law for a secret program. So saying something might be okay. Until I died a secret death by a secret agent. The dead...

I see you have many Peace Pipes on it. Wonderful.

Hey, where do I go to find out how to construct things in space, or deliver things that can constitute a surface base? Nice shots BTW, but let's see the station as you are building it!

I was going to say the same thing. Lottery sales folks wouldn't like this probability factor known.

More shots from the NASA-STP002x mission. (Note : surface textures are part of the texture packages optionally available from the Orbiter2010 application download page on this forum. Thanks to whoever put those packages together, as it saves much trouble compared to getting all these texture...

Present Situation : As it turned out, the Mars trip here took from 4 December 11 to 2 August 12, which is 242 days, roughly 18 days ahead of the perfect HTO, and 22 days ahead of a viable timely return. I have about 8.9k dv left in the tank. Fiddling with TranX, it seems I am just over the...

If you have been in the military, or watched movies about them, or are generally aware, you know what FNG means. When it comes to Orbiter, that's me. NASA-STP002x is the Mission name I gave to my first real attempt to get somewhere outside of the Earth's SOI. Not counting the first couple of...

Yes. I have that already, but :embarrassed: haven't read it yet. Too jazzed about going to Mars which, if I can do, then Neptune's the limit (I guess). Also looked at Celestia, which is like a galactic sandbox. They are in the process of adding ships, but not clear whether or not they have or...

Well, I have already tested it. It saves about 300kg fuel for me on the launch, but an align burn (actually several small align burns) are still necessary. What do you suggest?

Someone needs to build an add-on which goes all 2001:A Space Odyssey when approaching and then exceeding C.
