Perserveance Rover

thingiverse

This is a model of the Perseverance Mars rover 3D printed from NASA data. This is a large and complex model. Although you can find stls at https://nasa3d.arc.nasa.gov/detail/M2020-Model-Rover-STLs512020, you need to go to https://github.com/nasa/NASA-3D-Resources/tree/master/3D%20Models/M2020-Model-Rover-STLs512020 to find assembly instructions. I attempted to print this at 50% size but parts were too delicate to remove from the build plate and assemble. I was finally successful at 100%. The NASA model files omitted any way to attach the steering brackets to the mobility arms so I designed a top that is included in the files section. I used paper clips to make the links from the differential to the arms.
