Description
The Esprit is an exploration rover equipped with all the basic equipment required to begin pioneering on a new world. The vehicle includes a Survival Kit, generous cargo capacity, Cryopod, Ore Detector, communications equipment, basic defence and more. It is designed for a single operator for use in the location and construction of a primary base of operations. Once this outpost is complete, the Esprit can function as a rudimentary defence system, cargo vehicle or simply ground down for scrap.

The Esprit has two hydrogen engines which generate electricity to charge the battery. It is also equipped with three parachutes, so it can be dropped from a high altitude to save fuel, ready to begin exploration when it lands.


Instructions
Disable rear steering (Toolbar 5) when travelling at high speed, switch it back on for parking and manoeuvring.
When driving on moons, use the terminal screen to decrease the power and max speed of the wheels group by two thirds.
If you roll, use gyro override (Toolbar 9) to put the rover back on it's wheels.
Use the Repair Pistons (Toolbar 3,4) to repair damage to the underside and wheels. Using both sets of pistons at once is not recommended unless on a flat, manufactured surface.


Notes
Shout out to Nazz27 for the Bulldog APC. It gave me a few ideas.

I am having difficulty docking it with a connector. I have an inset connector in the floor but neither the one in the floor nor the one on the car are turning yellow even when perfectly lined up.

I am liking this so far. When building I was unable to add the downward facing ramps to the front tires, they were simply in the way of the tires, i had to remove them to allow the tire to place. I removed the cargo boxes in the underside rear between the tires and slipped in a hydrogen tank. I also removed some blocks from the "window" area and placed actual glass, as well as opening up the view a bit more (i like a wider view when I drive). The scripts are not working for me on all but the small front monitors. I have words on the side like "compass" but nothing shows up there. I also added a timer block to turn on my brake lights when i use the handbrake. Cant wait for my husband to drive it.

Been my personal favorite car, ever since I accidentally disengaged the lock and lost it while in flight. Found it gently touched down above some magnesium and cobalt, as it landed on a lake bed, using its built-in parachutes. Took it for a spin in sunset valley, fell inlove with the Espirit's keen eye for seeking out and sniping turrets, i had no idea was around me, i didnt even know i was in danger!

This is quite possibly the best rover I have come across.

Hard to get in this thing, specially if you are a new player. But aside from that it's a okay little machine I guess.
