Although C/C++ are usually used for RTOS but the development (at least the type of dev that a non-software engineer likes) for these systems is done in MATLAB/Simulink. MATLAB has tools for computing euler angles and quaternion math easily which is used extensively in spacecraft simulation...

If you use MATLAB to do this you can utilize built in functions to transform between quaternion and euler angles and from there transform to the body axis to determine angular rates. It's not easy but it is totally possible. However, you do really need to know what you're doing.

This may be a little late but Mathworks has some details on how to perform this type of analysis in Simulink: http://www.mathworks.com/discovery/monte-carlo-simulation.html Although there are details on the USS block for it, you don't really want to use it unless you are utilizing robust...
