@thesnorklemonkey Yeah, I guess that's ture, but a video on re-entry would be awesome, I can't get it right from earth orbit myself (without auto fcs)
@737Pilot122 Hey, you can check my channel I have here Apollo 9 Tutorial from launch to reentry. I do this because I mean Apollo 9 is great AMSO mission for begginers. In this mission you try docking, undocking and basics in Orbiter. Now I uploading tutorials with TransX - A way to the Moon. :-)
thanks for the tutorial, on the first try i skipped off but its orbit brought it back around and actually landed. now i notice that you can activate the helicopter and fly to the astronauts, but how do you pick them up? they are sitting there with the orange raft, but i do not know how to get them in the chopper.
@thesnorklemonkey cool yea i figured it out, you click m to get to the carrier then press J which brings the chopper. then click J to start the chopper and fly it to the capsule, the press D for door, k for basket k again to lower basket, k again for astronaut and lift to chopper, repeat for all. fly back to carrier, open door with d and press k. astronauts come out of chopper waving their hands and national anthem is played.
I just recently stumbled upon Orbiter and I have to say, your tutorials here are a great help for getting into all the stuff. thx for your efforts ;)

You should do Apollo 9 because I can't figurre out how to get the reentry right without needing alot more dV than I have

@737Pilot122 Apollo 9's a bit simple to warrant a full tutorial set. But I might do a re-entry mechanics tutorial eventually.

@mrbit10 I'm not sure on that one. I've never actually went through the recovery process. It's probably located somewhere in the AMSO manual.
