The simulator is a MATLAB/Simulink model that simulates an aircraft.

Currently, the simulator will work for a generic fixed-wing aircraft.

Required Simulink Toolboxes

In order to run the simulator, there are required toolboxes that must be installed within MATLAB/Simulink. The following toolboxes are required:

• UAV Toolbox (https://www.mathworks.com/help/uav/)

• Sensor Fusion and Tracking Toolbox (https://www.mathworks.com/help/fusion/)

• Aerospace Toolbox (https://www.mathworks.com/help/aerotbx/index.html)

Resources

Starting with no knowledge on how aircrafts work along with using Simulink, a list of (some) resources that were used to learn and create the simulator were collected which can be accessed below.
