Radius Vector to Cone Surface

To calculate the torque, we first need the radius vector to a point on the surface of the cone. The transformation from conical to cartesian body coordinates is [Maple Math] .

Hence, the radius vector from the center of mass to a point on the cone surface is, in the conical frame,
