I call this the Multipurpose Diplomacy Rover. It has a diplomatic range of about 20 kilometers.

One might say it leaves a political impact (ba da boom tish) ....

Also an effective solution if you happen to have too many lawyers sitting around doing nothing... >_>

Best sales pitch Ever.

Souris-class rover of the despicable Intergalactic Republic of France - Part of an AAR I'm messing about with right now.

[NGTOne]

Is it a rover, or a base? Well, WHY NOT BOTH?

Seriously, though...

(Click the image for more pictures and technical specs).

[ZedFish]

I call it Royce, because the headlights reminded me of an old Rolls Royce, and also because naming it "Rolls" would've been bad juju.

The worst. Good call.

Kuriosity

After building the ship to deliver that rover, i discovered it was capable of much much more. Cue the Mun rovers!

Even got one to Eve, with a few chutes.

Is there any greater view?

[Dotower]

I have to show you something really HUGE!

Can anyone please tell me how to update pictures directly from my pc? (without using URL)

[Pontiac]

@Dotower> You can't unless you have a web server available in your basement. Even then, you still have to provide us with a URL.

You can't. They have to be shown with a third-party site. What's wrong with imgur? It works fantastic and doesn't cost anything.

KSP is rocket science. Uploading and linking images however, is not. People have been doing it since AOL was the biggest gig around and Netscape was the browser of choice. Get up and learn a thing or two now and then, you'll appreciate having made the effort.

This is my munar rover. It was sent up to survey the munar surface. Sadly it didn't last long because i wrecked it. RIP

And this is the rover i sent up with my first manned mun mission. The three brave kerbanauts you see are no longer with us, but the rover is.......abandoned on the mun

This is a fairly simple unmanned rover. I'm actually quite proud of the lander design. It can get all the way to Duna, although I haven't quite figured out how to get there with enough fuel to land.

[HoY]

For Duna, take off All if those SAS units and nose cones, replace the cones with 4 parachutes, and possibly put a 1.25m probe core on the center tank of give you some extra torque. Won't need a fully powered landing inside Duna's atmosphere, tho you might want to use the rockets to slow yourself just a little before landing. By taking off all those SAS units that you don't need you'll save yourself probably 300-400 m/s of deltaV

What do you think about my Munar Crane?

[Johnno]

Here's my Apollo inspired rover. I built the first version before seats were implemented, landed two of those on the Mün. This version has been improved in various ways, here seen on Moho.

What are those red and white striped antennas? Been wondering that for ages :S

Here's my new rover for Kerbal transportation. I have mainly focused on making it handle really well, which I think it does. And I have yet to manage to flip it over when I've tested it on the KSC grounds. Not even driving it over obstacles while making sharp turns at the rocket launch pad has managed to flip it! Though I have busted a few wheels. I will perhaps add more seats after I've tested it on Mun and Minmus.

They are stock parts, you find them under the science tab, they're among the first 2 parts I think xD They only show the retracted state though in the parts browser (just like solar panels appear in their folded up state in the parts browser).

[SuperWeegee4000]

No need to be rude, he was just asking a question. He may not have much of a reason to visit the Science tab since right now it's primarily cosmetics.
