Rovers and schematics

Awsome! Today we started our moon rover training, we can't drive for real yet but we all have our own remote. Were supposed to get used to the controller, memorize what each of the buttons and levers does and customize the customizable ones to our preferences. The remote is almost a unit of it's own, it has a tiny screen to see the rover veiw and it also has a mini computer inside it to calculate the angle and speed of the the land rover. If it's getting dangerously close to tipping or is tipped it will tell which direction it's tipping and such. I can see why they gave us each our own because we couldn't study it without one, it's too complexe.
Note to self, diagram and schematics of remote is under Training: Land rover: remote, in the log files,
Teen out.
