  1. Tutorial helped me a lot too, thanks The problem I have is also getting close to the station in a stable fashion. The last part (final approach with RCS) is easy, but I'm also alwas zipping past the station and so forth. To be fair, I also had only one small mono propellant tank, next time I will slap a larger one on my ship so I can use RCS also during the approach stage a bit more aggressively.
  2. Hey there I'm new here, this is basically my first post. I'm trying to set up a space station. My first part is already in orbit, now I wanted to bring up the second part. Just as a reference, I'm using Rocketry and the whole rocket looks like this: The upper stage looks like this: So I obviously want to dock at the upper multiple docking port. Now, I have a Remote Control Unit for the actual second part of the station (just above the batteries with the green lights). Below it is a cuppola which I intend to use at the space station. Right below the cuppola is a separator: I'd like to dock with this thing and maybe transfer fuel and MAYBE use the engine for something. There is another remote control unit for the part which I intend to separate - my thought behind it was to steer it with the remaining fuel on a collision course with the planet, to get rid of the debris. On second thought, I probably don't need the upper remote control unit, as it should only get disconnected after I dock, and then I can use the control unit of the space station already in orbit. Well, anyhow, the problem is, that a guy sits in the cuppola and this results in the Nav-Ball being upside down...so it gets pretty hard to plan maneuvers. Is there a way to fix that/leave the guy on the ground or do I really have to turn this thing around? If there is a guy in the cuppola anway, then I can of course leave the upper remote control unit out. Or is there a way to switch "point of views" (I want to steer using the remote control unit, not the guy in the cuppola). Hope I'm posting this in the right place The main question is obviously about the cuppola, but maybe you have other suggestions/I'm making something else terribly wrong. Best regards Chloiber
  3. I haven't used your ship yet, but my main problem is getting to the moon. I somehow simply don't understand (despite your instructions) how to get to the SOI of the moon. If it works, I end up crashing right into the moon so I need to do a burn pointing past the moons surface, which is okay but uses a lot of fuel. When I did the mission according to your walkthrough, I probably burned too late so I missed the mun. Sped up the game and after around 5 passes I was lucky and mun caught me
