Abstract

We present the results of analytical research of flight dynamics for a flight vehicle that is controlled by the adjustable center of mass in the vertical symmetry plane. The roll oscillations, which appear perpendicular to the symmetry plane due to technological errors, are eliminated by means of control rocket engines, for which a control law is assigned.
