KerbalX

Kerbal Apollo-Saturn Launch Package - J Mission.

Apollo 15+ ‘J’ mission version with rover.

Pre-Launch:

1. Throttle up to full thrust.


2. Set target body in map view.


3. Wait for physics to settle if skipping step 2.

1. Stage to fire first-stage main engines.


2. On clearing tower, engage SAS and begin roll to ‘heads-down’ (‘top’ of CM facing East).


3. Continue direct vertical ascent until vertical velocity approaches 100m/s.


4. At 100m/s VV, pull to 80 degree pitch angle and hold until reaching 5,000m altitude.


5. On passing altitude 5,000m, begin pitch schedule of 10 degrees for 5,000m altitude, maintain pitch schedule until first-stage main engine cut-off (at ~10 degrees pitch angle).


6. On reaching 20ms^-2 acceleration, shutdown first stage centre main engine (~15,000m).


7. Pitch angle should be right on 10 degrees as first stage goes into cut-off, maintain this angle.


8. At first-stage cut-off, stage once to separate first stage, wait ~1.5s until separator motors deplete (but before ullage motors deplete) then stage again to ignite second stage main engines.


9. On second-stage ignition, wait until ullage motors deplete then stage again to separate interstage fairing, then wait ~5 seconds and stage again to jettison and clear LAS.


10. Continue free ascent (allow pitch to decay naturally) until velocity vector reaches vehicle nose marker then engage SAS prograde mode.


11. Continue with ascent while observing apoapsis altitude. Second-stage engines should cut-off at apoapsis ~100,000m. If fuel still remains in second-stage as apoapsis reaches 100,000m, perform manual second-stage shut-down.


12. On second-stage cut-off/shut-down, stage to separate second stage, press ‘R’ to activate S-IVB APS and coast to apoapsis for circularisation burn.


13. At apoapsis, stage to ignite ullage and third-stage motors (be sure the S-IVB is throttled up prior to staging) for circularisation burn to complete the orbit injection.
