RV-10A Fuel Truck

Description
With its unique "Fuel Claw" connector, the UnTech Motoworks RV-10 Fuel Truck can quickly transfer up to 1,000 units of fuel between craft at remote locations. The "A" variant carries liquid fuel only. However, the UT patented "EZ-Swap" design philosophy incoporated into this rover allows it to easily be converted to any of 6 variants to carry everything from xenon gas to mined ore particles! Bonus points if you can figure out what the RV-10T might be useful for?

A small, extremely practical and smart design and a nice refueling technology.

@Kozay Ahead full while turning right causes you to tip over on low grav worlds? Yes, I can see where that might happen.

The reaction wheel that's installed on the vehicle is intended to assist with tipping on the lower gravity worlds. Additionally, you can use the "T" key to turn on SAS for some automated stability control. So in addition to just mashing D-W... you also need to manage roll Q-E on low grav worlds.

It's a fuel truck, so yeah, it's gonna be top heavy and you just have to manage roll, but the SAS should help somewhat. Along with low speeds and some counter-roll with the Q-E keys if it starts rolling in one direction or the other.

Holding the buttons D and W drive foward and backwords but also try to move the truck to the left or right. The truck is constantly flipping on low gravity planet. Not sure how to fix this
