Optimizing the trajectory of spatial movement of a flying object as a solid body

We consider the problem of optimal control of a flying object (FO) by the Pontryagin maximum principle with minimizing the control expenses. The dynamics of an FO in space is defined by Euler and Poisson equations. A two-point boundary value problem is solved with the Newton's method. We give results of numerical modeling and recommendations to provide for convergence of the iterative procedure.
