SSTO3DLaunchSimulation:

 Launch vehicle simulation for single stage to orbit (SSTO) vertical launch

 Simulates a gravity turn trajectory in 3D. The goal is to get the vehicle
 moving horizontally to the radius vector at orbital velocity. The launch
 is vertical and at the 10th time step we rotate the velocity vector
 (pitchover).

 Uses RHSLaunchVehicle3D which has a spherical Earth. The simulation can handle
 any number of stages which are set by the arrays d.mStage, d.thruster, d.uE
 and d.cDA each of which have one element for each stage. This uses a full
 3 dimensional dynamical model in cartesian coordinates. 

 You vary the pitchover angle to get different trajectories. The
 trajectory is very sensitive to this angle. You can also change the
 time step for the pitch over by changing kPitch.
