[QUOTE="a33, post: 1148946, member: 332642"] Very good question! :) In the following post I reasoned that with modified motor settings, you might also need to enter the modified latitude angle for the USALS calculation: [URL='https://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/usals-notebook.166471/page-2#post-4136366']USALS Notebook[/URL] However, as I wrote there, the difference in effect of the modified latitude angle on [B][I]the calculated rotation angle[/I][/B] was so small, that it is hardly noticeable. So [B]in theory[/B] I think the modified LAT-angle should be used in USALS, but [B]in practice[/B] it doesn't matter much, I would say. That is why I usually don't address this point. But you were clever to think about this consequence! At some point I might pick up modified angles again, to compare several calculation ways, and their consequences. That is for the long term, though. Greetz, A33 [I]Edited.[/I] [/QUOTE]
