An extended version of the Remote Control block that provides complex behaviors as well as the original “basic” behaviors. AI Behavior: On/off – Enables or disables this blocks AI behavior. Select Objective: Currently offers three options (Follow Player, Follow Home, Autopilot) each option is...
The tug is uncrewed, it is either remote controlled or by onboard autopilot. NUCLEAR ENGINE FOR BIMODAL APPLICATIONS Bimodal engines are where the unit can operate at high temperature / short duration mode for propulsion, and at low temperature / long duration mode for electrical power generation...
(or lets the autopilot guide engage “feel the instructors movement without taking control. Overide if needed. Eject if needed)You'd only be doing a short flight to 500m high, 100 seconds maneuvering, then a quick descent at 1/4 gravity, and a 2G retro landing on a prepared stand ...
the core module as usual, with a gravity turn at 10000m or 10 km. Turn towards 38.4 degrees (for the 51.6 inclination). Continue until you reach a 374 km apoapsis, then burn prograde there until you get a 354 periapsis. It is possible to do this with precise flying or an autopilot....
An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), also known as a drone, is an aircraft that operates without a human pilot on board. It is equipped with autopilot technology, allowing it to navigate, control its flight, and acquire images autonomously or semi-autonomously. ...
Ground control engineers had made three separate requests for high-resolution images taken by the Department of Defense that would have provided an understanding of the extent of the damage, while NASA's chief thermal protection system (TPS) engineer requested that astronauts on board the Columbia ...
Captain Harris had left the controls on autopilot and was talking to the front row of passengers when the first tremor shook the boat. For a fraction of a second he wondered if a fan blade had hit some submerged obstacle; then, quite literally, the bottom fell out of his world. It fell...
The engineers determined that the Shuttle was neither an efficient way of getting cargo to orbit, nor would it offer as many immediate military advantages as initially believed. However, they had their own reasons to carry on, for spaceplanes and reusability have also been ...
An unmanned Russian cargo ship veered out of control nearthe International Space Station on Friday, sailing clear past the orbiting labinstead of docking on autopilot, as engineers on Earth struggle to determinewhat went wrong. The robotic cargoship Progress 38 was slated to dock at the space sta...
The flight engineers resorted to holding down the switches used to prime the fuel system in an attempt to increase fuel flow to the engines. M/Sgt. Edward Farcas held down the prime switches for the number-two and number-four engines while Captain Baker held down the prime switch for the ...
