Bug #18030
DLC MEM should be rotated 180 degrees for proper pitch response
10%
Description
The MEM lander can's attitude reference is backwards and should be rotated 180 degrees around it's roll axis. As a comparison, the attached screenshot shows the default attitude of the parts in reference to the their flightball orientation when controlling them. If you were to adjust the attitude of the MEM while observing the outside surroundings from the IVA, you would experience the opposite orientation movement than you would expect.
The effect is opposite yaw and pitch changes than what is expected compared to other command pods

Confirmed in 1.4.3
Kerbals and the windows they look through
are rotated 180° to
the nav-ball and control axes (and crew hatch if you want consistency there)
compared to the convention followed by the lander cans in the core game.

Still not fixed in 1.4.4 patch

With version 1.6.1, there is a right-click option 'control point'. Setting this to 'forward' orients the controls and NavBall to the Kerbals' point of view.

This "bug" is no longer relevant with 1.6. This entry should be closed please.
