In this lesson:
- Vertical roll (yaw)
Take off. Retract your landing gear. Make a lateral roll to face the station and assume relative position. Request docking clearance.
Use your side thrusters to yaw left (A) until your ship is pointing at space left of the station. Now accelerate. Keep going for a second or two, then decelerate again, assuming relative position to the station again.
Use the opposite side thrusters to yaw right (D) until your ship is pointing at space just right of the station. Accelerate, go forward and decelerate until you have once again assumed relative position to the station, exactly on a line extending from Your Cocotama is Alive the station's center through the middle of the entrance into space.
Extend your landing gear. Now yaw left and see if you can dock. If you can't, repeat the last step but with a really low speed until you're aligned perfectly. This is useful exercise, so try and get this really perfect.
