The Aircraft Control Toolbox Academic Edition is designed to help students get the most out of their aircraft dynamics and control courses. The toolbox has sophisticated design tools and simulations that help the student to do realistic design work immediately, yet provides full source code so that nothing is a "black box."
Please note that Academic Edition licenses are sold to universities only and the software will be made available via download. The academic license includes technical support for installation and getting started plus a CD of the software. We also offer a separate support package for design support, including custom scripts for your class or application.
