Open the door of the service tower on top of the gate. Open the ring that encloses the rocket. Slider 2 100%, rotator at the back of the ladder OFF. Close doors on service tower. Go for launch.
!!! Heading 85 SOUTH !!!,Throttle 100%, after TWR>1 activate AG7 and 10.
IN FLIGHT:
After launch heading 90, AG 7 off, 10 OFF.
After altitude>1000m heading 75, throttle 80%.
After altitude>5000m heading 60.
After altitude>9000m throttle 100%.
After altitude>10000m heading 45.
After apoapsis=100000m eng off, heading 0.
After altitude>80000m throttle 100%.
Stage separation.
After next stage separation and deploy Spaceship, AG3,4,5 on. After that AG4,5 off.
Congratulations!
DOCKING:
For docking maneuvers AG10 on.
At 1 km to target AG10 off, AG7 on, open the nosecone of the docking port, Docking Cam on, Docking spotlight on.
UNDOCKING: close the nosecone of the docking port, Docking Cam off, Docking spotlight off.
DEORBIT:
If orbit is 250x250km, lock velocity retrograde and throttle 100%.
After deorbit burn lock heading 90 degrees upward relative to prograde velocity, slider 1 and slider 2 >30%, AG10 on.
After altitude=20000m unlock current heading and move Slider 2 (you will feel the flight).
If you land at night/morning/evening, turn on AG1.
LANDING:
After altitude=2700m pause the game, lock velocity retrograde, AG3 off, AG4,5 on, Slider 1 0%, Slider 2 100%, throttle 100%.
