A method for controlling a thrust vectored aircraft includes mapping aircraft control commands with a flight controller through a number of transformations including: transforming, with the flight controller, a command space into an inner-mixing space, which comprises of at least a pair of two orthogonal force components located at each thrusting motor; transforming, with the flight controller, the inner-mixing space into an outer-mixing space, which comprises a thrust angle and thrust magnitude pair located at each thrusting motor; and generating output commands with the flight controller.
