The test range for launch vehicle is intended for certain launch missions, while land, sea area and airspace are all included. The safety issues of test range are complicated and involve many factors. Before rockets' entry to the outer space, it is forbidden to cross foreign territory or the safety distance have to be guaranteed to the boundary. In addition, falling zones for the re entry are prohibited from being in the foreign region. In China, with the restriction of territory and to meet the requirements of intercontinental rockets’ full-range flight test, particular trajectory schemes are selected, such as “low trajectory”, “high trajectory”, to substitute full range flights. Based on the description of the features of those two trajectories, the range control for rocket flight test was analyzed, focusing on taking suborbital vehicles as payloads, including re-entry and penetration. Based upon suborbital flight inside China's territory, the manners for test range safety control are studied. For the low trajectory flight, controlling the angular velocity of the pitch program is a useful manner of range control. For the high trajectory flight, controlling the angle of the pitch program is a useful manner of range control.
