folding rover

When I went to the moon and Minmus I realized that in places with low gravity the rovers turned very easily, and that they had to be: flat, wide and long. but later I realized that these types of rovers were difficult to transport and did not fit in protective caps. So I ended up designing this rover that I liked very much.

(I tried it a few times, so it may have some small flaws)

oxidizer: 177
liquid fuel: 145
electric charge: 1000

retracted:
height: 2.5m
width: 2.6m
length: 3.5m
extended:
height: 2m
width: 4.2m
length: 4.1m

Useful parts: small reaction wheel, scanning arm, thermometer, pressure gauge, small resource scanner, powerful flashlight, science storage box, bonboyage mod module, 2 solar panels 3X2 retractable.

The vehicle has 4 RCS modules (I do not know if it says "RCS") of liquid fuel placed at the ends of the vehicle (above the wheels) to make even sharper turns. It also has 4 small engines at the ends (under the wheels) to be able to lift and stop falls, exempting the orange fuel tank from behind (which is programmed to be consumed at the last) the rest of the fuel tanks are centered to keep the balance of the engines (this is with the extended rover). It also has 2 docking ports to update modules. It can move perfectly while being retracted but the controls will be reversed. The reaction wheel is disabled by default, I recommend checking the quick access settings.
