Setup

% Select the body for launch
%---------------------------
body = 'Moon'; % 'Mars'

% These are in km
%----------------
switch body
    case 'Mars' % Mars
        mu          = Constant('mu mars');
        rMars       = Constant('equatorial radius mars');
        u           = sqrt(mu/rMars);
        g           = mu/rMars^2;
        h           = 200;

    case 'Moon'
        u           = 1.8654;
        g           = 1.6154e-3;
        h           = 15.240;
end

% Number of simulation steps
%---------------------------
n           = 2000;

% Thrust acceleration
%--------------------
a           = 3*g;

% Find the thrust direction angles
%---------------------------------
TolX        = 1e-7; TolFun = 1e-11; MaxFunEvals = 2500;
Options     = optimset('TolX',TolX,'TolFun',TolFun,'MaxFunEvals',MaxFunEvals);


[beta, t]	= BilinearTangentLaw( u, g, a, h, n, Options );
              BilinearTangentLaw( u, g, a, h, n, Options );

dT          = t(2) - t(1);

% Size the array
%---------------
xP          = zeros(4,n);

% Initial state
%--------------
x           = [0;0;0;0];

Simulate

%----------
for k = 1:n
    xP(:,k)	= x;
    x       = RK4('RHSPlanetTakeoff',x,dT,t,a,g,beta(k));
end

Plot

%------
[t, tL] = TimeLabl(t);

% Titles for plots
%-----------------

s2 = sprintf('%s Takeoff States',body);
s3 = sprintf('%s Surface',body);

% Annotate the plot
%------------------
hold on
