In this video we develop a dynamic model of an aircraft by describing forces and moments generated by aerodynamic, propulsion, and gravity that act on the aircraft. This video outlines the analytical models/equations used as well as provides some discussion on the features and phenomenon that are captured in the RCAM model. A separate video discusses how to implement this in Matlab/Simulink.
