Using hyperedit to get correct values for AP and PE.

I'm trying to put my ISS replica mod station on the most accurate orbit possible, I've got the inclination down(51.6degrees).But I can't find a way to get hyperedit to change the AP and PE individually.

The AP and PE are 159/169 KM respectively

You're gonna want to add 300 km to those values, as the ISS swirls around the Earth between 430 and 230 km height, depending on when the last reboost was.

As to your problem, your going to want to slap on a bunch of RCS thrusters and a big fuel tank and simply go out there and work at it. Make sure your only positioning the core module, or Unity, for this matter, to be the most accurate, least sluggish, and least laggy.

You could go mess with the autom8tor API and see what it can do, but other than that, trial and error.
