A method of control design is developed using optimal control theory which results in a simple and practical control system. The basis of this method is the elimination of unnecessary feedback gains which in turn allows most of the Kalman filter elements to be eliminated also. The procedure is developed by designing an automatic control system for a remotely piloted vehicle. The aircraft modeled in the study was the Ryan Compass Cope RPV. This aircraft has a low wing loading making it very susceptible to wind gusts. The problem is limited to the approach phase of landing under moderate to severe turbulence. Both longitudinal and lateral control systems are considered.
