As always great content! Thank you very much for spending your free time explaining us such interesting things!

[@aaronpurcell-cox51]

I very much enjoyed this video! Although it took me a while, I was eventually able to get a valid result using this method! However, there is something crucial that stumped me for a while. At 19:24 in the video, you enter the earth's radius in Km. I followed along (not thinking too much of it) and I kept getting invalid results for example I would get a warning flag from the start. But then when I worked back through the model/code and did a bit of manual calculation I found that using the Haversine formula you spoke about, my horizontal distance was ridiculously small, hence why I was getting a warning flag from the beginning of the simulation. So I used meters rather than Kilometres and this fixed the issues I was having. Although I will say, that troubleshooting this problem really did aid my understanding of the full system! So there is a bright side haha. By the way, if what I have said is incorrect, please do let me know. I always like to learn even if it means I am wrong. TLDR: If you are following along and getting invalid results make sure you use meters for the earth's radius (at 19:24) and not kilometres.

[@VDEngineering]

Oops, my bad, glad you got it working!

[@sampiko9697]

The earth’s radius is in meters , he put e3. I’m still unable to get valid results. Wondering where I made mistakes.

Yes, however the goal was to explain the theory in detail, for a complete understanding. In a work setting, the engineer would use the toolbox however he/she must tune it perfectly and use the appropriate initial conditions and parameters!

[@dimitris.159]

Hey Vinayak, I am currently working on a project where I have to connect FG to Matlab/ Simulink. Your videos have been pretty helpful so far, but I was wondering if you have ever tried to connect two instances of FG to the same Simulink model to perform simultanous flight trajectories of two planes via FG Multiplayer mode. The problem I have is about the communication between the two FG instances since there is always a "jitter" in the visualization instead of a fluent movement. I would be really happy for any advice! Other than that: Keep it up! Your videos are great!

[@VDEngineering]

Not sure how to do that yet

[@ashwinsivakumar2742]

while implementing the guidance model; x and z are they given in terms of theta or gamma? 'cause the formula you showed mentions theta, but your simulink diagram taps gamma. Thank you so much for the effort put in.

[@VDEngineering]

Hey, so the true formula is gamma yes, that was a typo. However, if you run this simulation you'll notice that angle of attack stays at 0, which means theta ~= gamma, (because Az ~= 0), so either will give you the same result. Thanks for spotting that!

Excuse me, sir, I'm a newbie so I could miss something. But is it okay that the simulation doesn't work if the rocket and the target are too far away from each other? I mean, it misses completely if the distance is too much.

yes because the error adds over time

@@VDEngineering Great , thanks a lot !

[@safatkhan6839]

Thanks for sharing your vids. I think you cover A LOT of VERY interesting topics. However, the reason it's difficult to follow your content is because it always feels like you cram in 5 hours of content into a 20 mins video. As such, if one already was way too familiar with what it is that you are doing, they'd benefit from the quick demonstration. But for those who aren't already very familiar, it doesn't really teach them all that much. But it must take a lot of effort to put all these together. Thanks for taking the time out to do this anyway.

[@VDEngineering]

I know, If I had the time to make longer videos I would, I work full time whilst attending school. I also believe most people will get bored watching a 5 hour video, so my channel views will drop and ratings will go down, hope you understand.

[@safatkhan6839]

@@VDEngineering LMAO! I would never expect a 5 hour long video. That'd be a terrible idea. What I was suggesting is more like the Control Bootcamp series by Steve Brunton. The individual videos in the series are 10-20 mins each. But the total content is 10 hours+. The way you do it seems more like a 20 mins technical presentation on a project. Whatever the case maybe, thank you very much for finding any time to do this. I am already surprised that you even found any time for this considering your studies and work obligations must be very time consuming and stressful.
