This paper describes the stability of the Rotational Dumbbell shaped body. This problem, defined as the Rod-Connected Restricted Three Body Problem, is the special case of the Restricted Three-Body Problem, characterized by three bodies: two primary bodies connected each other by a rigid stick; and a mass-free body. While the Restricted Three-Body problem has only one degree of freedom, there are two degrees of freedom in this problem. By setting properly two parameters, described as the non-dimensional angular velocity and the mass ratio, both positions of equilibriums and stable regions are determined. In this paper, the stability in any type of those non-dimensional values is analyzed. There are five equilibriums and three stable points. Of these equilibriums, three points are along the line passing through two primary bodies, and the other two points are along the perpendicular bisector between two primary bodies. In addition, those stable points are comprised of two points which are along the perpendicular bisector between two primary bodies and a point which is along the line segment between two primary bodies.
