  1. Hi all, Something that's been making me avoid the relatively moneyspinning contracts for putting satellites into very specific orbits is that I don't really know how to adjust my Longitude of Ascending Node and Argument of Periapsis with any certainty. I use MechJeb for telemetry readout only and would like to know what is the most efficient way of adjusting these two parameters. I've tried having a play about with this, but in all honesty, I've just turned decent orbits into highly eccentric sub-orbital abortions and ran out of delta V. My thoughts have been that I need to burn Nml+ to fix the LAN (but how can I tell when this point should be? ) Then once I fix the LAN, I then need to do something to change the Arg Pe, but I have no idea how to do that. After those have been fixed, I then adjust my Ap/Pe as normal burning Pro/Ret as necessary. It's those two sticking points that I'm struggling with (and of course, how to elegantly do this without having to burn thousands of m/s of dV would be awesome). Help please? Thanks in advance!
  2. Out of interest, what kind of conversion are you suggesting here, as this is sounding pretty theoretical without some sort of resource (as seen in the Kethane mod).
