Really need to borrow some mental capacity here, pls send help.

So, here’s the deal:

I have a transfer stage with 3 ComSats parked around Duna:

[230/224km equatorial obit]

I need those satellites deployed into three different orbital planes, spaces out 120 degrees from each other, and on top of that I need to keep the satellites staggered by 1/3 of the orbital period of their target orbit.

Has anyone tried comparable deployments previously, and if you did, what was your sequence and passing orbits for getting the proper separation between the satellites?
