Just a note from when I was working on something similiar... you are going to have to play with the equations a little bit. I created what I thought was a reasonably accurate model of the solar system and a space ship... but the ship always flew out of the system too fast, or barely moved, or always was sucked up into planets. I never quite got it to work out.
