We plan to conduct a high-precision photometric search for transitting extra-solar planets using the refurbished 1.3~m (50~inch) Robotically-Controlled Telescope (RCT) at Kitt Peak. The photometric capabilities and extra-solar planet search strategy for the RCT are discussed.

Refurbishment of the RCT has been made possible by NASA grant NAG58762.
