Hello everyone. I'm a newbie so maybe the answer I'm searching is just trivial.
I've started using TransX looking at a couple tutorial/manual around.
I was trying to calculate a Escape from Earth+Mars trajectory.
My troubles are just at the beginning when trying to define a decent ejection plan.
I took a window around april 2017 or, in any case, an opportune time. I've tried several prograde dV (from 2700 to 3700) and moved forward and backward the ejection date but I'm not able to find out any pair of values that would offer a minimum proximity less than 500M... which is a LOT.
Do any of you have suggestion about what could be wrong in my attempt?
I'm using a XR2, orbiter 2016 and... I suspect this could be part of the problem... I'm not sure which version of TransX. (Maybe I just answered myself with this last comment)
