This is one cool vehicle, drove it on Hurston and it works great, a lot easier to handle than it look consider it's size and over all very well done.
But did notice it don't handle rocks well not even small one you could step over easy made it slow down considerably or some time temporarily get stuck.
IMO this is something they need to fix. so avoid tangle with very rocky parts of surfaces if you can.
In short for being straight from concept to ready to use and no previous testing out side office it's really really good,
I'll have one for sure, great fun and you feel pretty secure in it compared to driving a rover ha ha.

CHEERS! 🍻

How did you spawn these? Any chance of putting them in a Reclaimer and transporting them to an asteroid to see how they perform, including lock range against any given target, and the lock range of that target, say against an HH or a Connie?

This thing's utility is tied completely to its range, so this is a key test. We don't know anything about 2XV radar.

Already reported : ) /unfortunately, I can no longer edit it, so I can't add rocks to the title/ @Mich Angel

And we definitely need some demolition derby -- how about next weekend?

Is there an articulation between the rear wheels and the door? It looks like one but I haven't seen these things bend in any of the vids.

IMHO, this would be much cooler if you could disconnect at that point, and leave the missile section in place, and control several of these missile racks with a single forward section of the craft. Could make them easier to move too.
