Very good work...and I hope to add few more complexity to these one..
If nay one have nonlinear model please let me know

Some Errors in the .m file need to be fixed according to the document:
Matrix A:
  A(2, 3) should be Zq+Ue
  A(4, 3) should be cos(PHIe)
  A(4, 8) should be -sin(PHIe)

Good work.
Just did not use the conventaional Euler angles as the standard 6 DOF in aviation.

I would say this was a very useful document as i am an ameture cotrol designer doing a final year project, I am in quites a mess at the moment and would appreciate some help from you geniuses to undertand my project.I have to improve the handling qualities of a bell 412 heliopcter and I have a state space model. I am concentrating on forward flight roll rate. At the moment i have so many qustions to ask without being judged and so many confusions to solve. Hope to hear from one of yourl soon..thishleo@hotmail.com...
Thanks
