As of November 2015, the Shuttle's orbital DAPs are configurable using the SPEC 20 utility. This allows to set characteristics such as the roll rates achieved for a given controller movement, deadbands for attitude and rate holding as well as to switch the nose / aft RCS pods selectively off to conserve propellant. | As of November 2015, the Shuttle's orbital DAPs are configurable using the SPEC 20 utility.

Note that the DAP characteristics configuration allows to specify unstable or ineffective use of the RCS, thus changes should be entered with care. | Note that the DAP characteristics configuration allows to specify unstable or ineffective use of the RCS, thus changes should be entered with care. |
