I reached successfully Mars with a UCGO Arrow Freighter + docked XR-2, I undocked and tried a re-entry with Aerobrake MFD, but at Olympus arrival I was too fast (1000m/s +). I had a second try, but this time I just burned retrograde until I almost stopped, and enabled the auto-land feature of hover autopilot, and this time I was successful, but the point is that it seemed to me a drunk Yuppi ya way to land.
Do you use AeroBrake for Mars? In this case, which is the altitude of your initial orbit, and when are you going to burn retrograde (my values were far from realistic - 300km ALT, from the Arrow Freighter and 1/2 orbital period)?
