The lifting-body type vehicle is one of the rnost promising candidate for future reusable launch systems. In JAXA, the LIFLEX (Lifting-body Flight Experiment) was planned with the main purpose of developing automatic landing technology, which is one of the most important issue in realising lifting-body type re usable launch vehicles. The authors were in charge of the flight control system of the experimental vehicle for Lifting-body Flight Experiment (LIFLEX), The logistical and Lateral control systems were' design by apply in the MDM/MDP (Multiple Delay Model/Multiple Design Pint) method to linearised systems of the vehicle derived from the nominal reference trajectory. The designed control systems were evaluated using the six degree-of-freedom nonlinear flight simulation program. This paper reports the outline and design procedure of these flight control systems.
