I think that it would be salient to make a reference to the rotational axes pitch, roll and yaw from aviation. 185.69.144.103 (talk) 11:05, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why are the reference frames of images 2 and 3 left handed? I find it very confusing. 147.83.76.204 (talk) 11:47, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think the yaw-pitch-roll matrix multiplication formula is wrong[edit]

(first time contributing to wikipedia, please be gentle :D)

Yaw-pitch-roll matrix multiplication in Davenport chained rotations#Tait–Bryan chained rotations is probably incorrect. It shows extrinsic ZYX Euler angles, while it should show extrinsic XYZ, which correspond to intrinsic ZYX. I think what's needed is to reverse the order of matrix multiplication: instead of R_xR_yR_z it should be R_zR_yR_x WojtekPachowiak (talk) 08:45, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
