RoninFrog Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 (edited) 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.

RoninFrog Posted August 31 Author Share Posted August 31 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.

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.
