    One could use the X, Y, and Z offsets from the CoM and tune the thruster throttles to balance an asymmetrical vehicle. But your CoM changes as fuel is burned.

    Press "t" for translation mode. Or crash into what you're trying to dock to. I find the second option more fun!

    Make sure that your rcs thrusters are symmetrically placed around your craft and that they lie on the center of mass. Also you can press T while in flight to activate translation mode to move your craft to the sides forwards and backwards.
