  • Abstract
    THE PROBLEM of attitude control exists to a certain extent with all kinds of vehicles, missiles, and projectiles. Attitude control is necessary or desirable for at least the following reasons: 1. To provide mental and physical comfort for passengers. 2. To provide proper environment and positioning to allow instrumentation to function. 3. To provide proper alignment for lift surfaces and thrust vectors.
