Fast ang agile reusable rover for mk2 cargo bay (perfect for SSTO)

Let me introduce you new generation of compact rovers for SSTOs, previous my design (only for inner use :cool:) was slow, fragile and very boring. But this piece engineering art - Jupiter-22 do not have any of this problem. It is light (only 0.62t), agile, fast (cruise speed ~20 m/s, maximum theoretical speed ~60 m/s) and compact (only 3/4 space in long mk2 cargo bay), can drive in completely dark environment (2 RTG on board).

1. Always use SAS in time of driving

2. I recommend to assign separate keys for rover controls and use on light bodies only SAS rotation controls

Im impressed with this...

Now you have so given me an idea to make some 2 wheeler rovers.

Im so gonna make a GAZ–49P Dubna now, since well, all my attempts at making LC tech failed miserably (forget hovertanks in KSP).
