Ignoring the python of 2g wires hanging out the back...I wonder what the RCM version might look like...possibly a crawler/truggy = trawler???

That thing is huge! I had no idea it was that big. How did they get it back to earth already? :)

There is a guy on www.rccrawler.com that built a rover for NASA in Houston to use for people to demo that is an RC4WD 5th scale crawler. I will try to find the link.

I thought that was what The Hulk held onto as he swung it around and threw it out to Mars.


That think is huge. The old rovers were much bigger than they seemed, but still a Jr. compared to that.

Nuclear fueled eh? Should be asking how we get NASA tech onto our trucks. Runtime measured in years is awesome, but the whole "uncontrollable cataclysmic nuclear meltdown" turning your backyard into a "radioactive wasteland" just because you hit a tree is a bit of a tit tho.
