A backup assist system for a vehicle and trailer combination includes a steering system and a first sensor detecting a first dynamic condition of the combination. The system further includes a controller receiving a value for the first dynamic condition from the first sensor at a plurality of instances. The controller further solves for a corresponding plurality of parameters in a kinematic model of the combination and controls the steering system using the plurality of parameters in the kinematic model.
