How can one input an arbitrary array to Simulink?

Question

The image below is the quadrotor model in simulink, now it's following a path made of sine waves for x and y.

If I want the quadrotor to follow a path made of predefined x,y,z values, how can I specify that?

I see predefined z=-4. Can you made the x and y for the same way? — Mikhail_Sam

Yes I can do that, but then it is just one value. What I want to do is to define a "via-points" path. I want the quadrotor to follow a path of for example x,y,z: [ 1 1 0; 1 1 2; 1 1 4, 2 1 4 ... etc] — Coder

The most logical way to do this is to create an arbitrary timeseries variable in MATLAB and then use it as an input in Simulink using a "Read data from workspace" block

That worked, thanks. I am plotting a polygon on a figure in the workspace, is it possible to let the quadrotor fly on the same figure on which I am plotting?
