3D holding pattern¶
3D airplane environment state, parameters, and transition logic.
| Action space | Box((3,)), all actions in [-1, 1] |
| Observation space | Box((21,)) |
| Tracked variable(s) | altitude (m) |
| Episode length | 650 steps (650 s at 1 s per step) |

Action space¶
Actions are normalised to [-1, 1] and mapped onto the plant's real
actuator range inside the environment.
| # | meaning | min | max |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | power | -1 | 1 |
| 1 | stick | -1 | 1 |
| 2 | aileron | -1 | 1 |
Observation space¶
21 values. Indices (2,) carry the tracked variable(s) that the reward scores.
Rewards¶
See the environment's compute_reward.
Every environment in this suite scores on one contract: the reward is
(tracking terms, multiplied) x (1 - weighted costs), bounded in
[0, 1], and reaches 1 only while the target is held exactly. See
Reward shaping.
Starting state¶
reset samples the initial condition and the target; state has 27 fields.
Episode end¶
Termination. See check_is_terminal.
Truncation. After 650 steps.
Baselines¶
A tuned PID ships with this environment.
