As in nulls out rates or gets you in a "default" direction?

Nulls out rates, also referring to mercury camaigns. I just started out. Something like SAS in KSP

There is a cheat for doing it (||backspace||), Mercury does have the ASCS though that you can use to get you back to BEF

Im sorry what does BEF mean? This made me think, a list of abbreviations used in space exploration would also be nice 😅

Broad End Forwards (if I recall correctly)

#

I just think of it as butt-end forward

BEF = Blunt End Forward

well technically Mercury doesn’t have a blunt end because the retropack is the same diameter as the chute section… 😁
