Image change requested

In the image, and in some of the text actually, the prograde and retrograde markers are referred to as Orbit prograde and Orbit retrograde markers, but they are only Orbit if Orbit is selected as the Point of Reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MCSquared (talkcontribs)

Maybe the new image should use numbers instead of text to make future translations easier. And don't forget signing your posts with --~~~~. — xZise [talk] 11:18, 21 June 2013 (CDT)
Those different symbols on the left side are already visible later, so the new image doesn't need to feature them. — xZise [talk] 11:26, 21 June 2013 (CDT)
Didn't visit here for some time and forgot to put the page on my watchlist. Good idea to split the labeling Done that, also removed the indidivual markers now that we have the fancy vector drawings. I'm unhappy with the Navball image quality, but I haven't figured out how to get this in better quality so far except by investing some Photoshop time. Maybe using B.O.S.S. for making the screenshot would allow proper high-res? —Senshi (talk) 05:37, 8 August 2013 (CDT)
Maybe use two different images? One original which isn't changed, and a vector graphic which mustn't be a complete recreation, but allows a larger image. — xZise [talk] 06:34, 8 August 2013 (CDT)

Extra detail requested

Could this be updated so that the RCS and SAS lights are indicated, just saying where they are what represent, just to help make it fully comprehensive. Thecoshman (talk) 10:25, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

More navball info requested

I'd like to see more about the info about the numbers and text on the navball itself, i.e. the cardinal directions, degree system and anything else that may be relevant.

E.g. I don't understand the degree/heading system. The navball is a sphere, yet it's divided in 360 degrees, just like a circle.Ostermann (talk) 06:50, 21 December 2013 (CST)
