I’ve always wanted my own robot for exploring beyond our planet. So, I decided to buy my very own RC Mars Rover to explore the uncharted territories of my backyard at least. Discovery, here I come!
Now you can buy your very own Mars Rover, in RC form. This handy robot is a functioning, controllable model built to look just like the Perseverance from 2020. Explore the unknown and record your adventures via a camera phone attachment on the front of the unit.
Explore the farthest reaches of your universe with the RC Mars Rover!
Any scientist or explorer will be thrilled to get their hands on this incredible RC Mars Rover toy. It’s designed to look just like NASA’s actual Perseverance explorer. Thankfully, this one will make the trip to your doorstep in much less than 7 months!
Six all-terrain tires and shock-absorbing suspension allow for navigation through all sorts of terrain. Whether it’s unexplored territory in your own backyard, or if somehow it eventually makes its own trip to Mars (looking at you, Virgin Galactic) you’ll be ready.
Steer with the included controller from up to 98’ feet away. Better to let the Rover explore that crater, after all. Controls go forward and backwards, left and right, and it can move sideways as well.
Capture your findings with the integrated smartphone holder. It utilizes the camera on the rear of your phone to capture footage from your mission. Study the life you find in detail upon your Rover’s return!
This robot does not possess any robotic limbs to harvest samples, unlike the real Rover. Unfortunately, you won’t be bringing any moon rocks home. I don’t think it’s a bad thing, as the last thing I need is a “space rock” collection in the house.
What phones is the RC Mars Rover compatible with?
The RC Mars Rover works with most Android and iPhone smartphones, using its adjustable clamp system. It will not work with tablets or larger sized devices. Your phone will need to have a rear-facing camera.
Note that the arm is slightly adjustable in terms of angle but is not designed to be used in a position other than upright. Thus, you won’t be able to shoot landscape-style footage with it.
