Honestly, if you're hell bent on learning to do this by hand..... go get mechjeb.


Wait wait wait.... Yes that sounds counterintuitive.

But you can learn far more by watching MJ fly your ship, than you could from watching a video of someone else fly not-your ship. Ok yes, their video would explain more theory, but MJ using manuever nodes will teach you how it does what it does.

So Quicksave your flight, let MJ do that Hman transfer to wherever it is you want to go, then quick-load, and do it yourself.

Eventually you'll learn how to do all the advanced stuff intuitively. But watch a lot of the tutorial videos out there. Learning the theory behind orbital mechanics is 90% of the battle.
