One thing I found that worked was disabling the controls on any lift parts on the glider, it helped up until a certain point.

After many failed attempts, here is my Level 1 entry.
This could be easily improved, such as the ascent but I will work on it.
This was good fun. Does my landing count as KSC on the of-chance maybe?
Also if anyone does know why I lost pitching up controls please let me know.

I have a few concepts in mind but also a question, to get Lunex 4 badge, do I have to do the Lunex 1, 2 and 3 requirements aswell?

So, after thinking about this a little, I decided to try building a rover with a working rocker-bogie suspension as a proof of concept:
It's all built with BG robotics parts, no stock wheels. The only powered parts are the wheel rotors and the two servos at the front used for steering. (I believe Perseverance uses four wheel steering, but I was lazy and only made two of the six wheel steerable for this test rover.)
The real secret ingredient is the unpowered servo at the back of the rover body and the two grip pads attached to it, highlighted in the screenshot above. The grip pads have same-vessel interactions turned on, as do the four pads on the suspension that they're sandwiched between. What this simple mechanism does is implement the rocker part of the rocker-bogie suspension: it holds the pitch of the rover body at the average of the pitches of the two upper suspension arms on either side of it, thus allowing the body to match the approximate tilt of the terrain below it, even when said terrain is highly uneven:
Looks good, I might try this myself using slightly different parts but with a similar concept.
How does the rover remain powered with six motors, are there batteries clipped into the main body?

I would like to try launching ingenuity but having issues with the torque. Does anyone have any suggestions? I try videos but nothing seems to work.

Well this was fun, as my first rover mission I think it went well, I never had any interest in rover missions as I never saw the point in the stock game.
I tried to launch ingenuity as well, but came across a few issues which were taking a while to fix so didn't launch it.
This was on PS4 so no mods were used. I linked a video, the rover hits the Duna atmosphere at 5:36.

Issue with video
After some testing and messing around, here is my entry.
A few things could be improved however, I will most probably come back to it.
The video is now the correct one!
