After months of testing, printing and assembling, Mimas finally stands on her own wheels! The Rocker-Bogie suspension system is stiff enough to handle the weight of the metal body frame, without plastic or metal deformations. All six wheels stably touch the ground and the differential bar avoids unwanted pitch movements. The suspension system is not fully working yet, since some bolts are still missing. However, it is already possible to test the mechanics that allow the rover to overcome rocks and other obstacles.
