Hello all! I'm fairly new to orbiter (about a month into it), and I've just started tutorials on transX. Was hoping someone could clue me in as to a problem I'm having. I am trying a simple scenario to go from Earth orbit to the moon. I reached an Earth orbit of approx. 200km (PeA and ApA), did a small correction burn to get my RInc to 0.000, and then fired up the TransX MFD.
I set up a good prograde velocity in Manuever mode, and adjusted the manuever date forward to allow for a 50km ALT to the moon in the Encounter stage. No problems there, but when I move forward to the Target stage, it is showing a negative time to ignition. I'm guessing that maybe I missed my burn opportunity for this orbit? I'm not sure, but if so, how do I fix this?
