Summary

This is the rover from our final project in science. I had a 3d model lying around so hey, why not? It was designed to go to Jupiter's moon, Io.

Side note: It has been over a week after the quarter ended and we have not gotten the grade back yet.

Print the rover body half and solar panels and glue/ attach it to a matchbox car chassis or if big enough, an RC car. 2. Print the entire body and put struts/wheels on it.</p><p>Directions:</p><ol><li>Print a body and solar panels (for the half that looks like a shell, print support structure and leave it as the solid top half.</li><li>Glue solar panels to the nubs sticking out of the rover body.</li><li>Either design and print your own wheel or glue some wheels on to the whole body (for representation). if you print the half body, get a model car chassis and glue it on.<br>-As I said before, if you have a big 3d printer, you could attach it to an RC car chassis of you want. No pressure.</li></ol></div>
