| abstract = 
Experimental comparisons between four different control design
methodologies are applied to a small vectored thrust engine.
Each controller is applied to three trajectories of varying
aggressiveness.  The control strategies considered are LQR,
H_infty, gain scheduling, and feedback linearization.  The 
experiments show that gain scheduling
is essential to achieving good performance.  The
strengths and weaknesses of each methodology are also examined.
