This paper gives a control law for stabilizing multiple input chained form control systems. This extends an earlier result [10] on stabilizing the above class of systems which have two inputs. Along the way, we construct a transformation from general chained form systems with multiple generators to a power form. A control law which stabilizers the origin of a three-input control system that models the kinematics of a fire truck is simulated, confirming the theoretical results.
