All-Terrain Unicycle (Stock)

[RoninFrog]

This rover is a combination of the various aspects of rover design I've worked with/discovered. 

• Elastic hinge-based suspension
• Adjustable SAS position holding
• Transforms into hydrofoil for water
• Single wheel/full RTG power

It's really fast, really durable, really compact, and can go anywhere.  Stable up to 70 m/s on land, 100 m/s on water, and 30 m/s on extreme terrain (e.g. Mun crater jumps or Moho mountains).  200m jumps on the Mun are safe.

It turns out it's also an absolute pleasure to fly with the kerbal chute.  Super fine control, low (<30m/s) flying speeds, very stable and thoughtlessly easy to take off and land.  Very relaxing.  Sorry the vid was taken at night lol.

Edit: Not entirely sure the rover will survive the Dres plunge.  I haven't made a rover yet that survived when I tested it.

Edit 2: Just tested it and the rover was in one piece but both wheels broke and the pilot fell out and almost died.
