This is awesome! I'm working on a similar hobby project (an avionics software programming/simulation game) and have written some basic avionics software to fly/land Starship [1]. It's really satisfying when simple simulations give results that are close to reality.

The StackOverflow blog posts and this blog have been very well timed for me - I have a good list of things to learn more about now. In the initial avionics software that I've written I'm using a fairly simple approach involving a lot of PIDs to keep the ship on a predefined track. So getting some more dynamic trajectory plans in there will be a fun thing to explore!
