🔍 The Design Choices Behind the Rover 🚀

Welcome to the Rover Q&A! 🎯 Here, you’ll find answers to the most frequently asked questions about the design choices behind the Rover.

Why were certain materials chosen? Why doesn’t the Rover have a steering system? Why was 3D printing used as the manufacturing method? All the answers are here! 📖✨

🛠️ Why Did I Choose 3D Printing for Manufacturing?

The design process is directly influenced by the chosen manufacturing method! 🎨 Before I even started drawing the first component of the Rover, I had to decide how it would be built. 🔩

I set the following goals, which led me to 3D printing as the ideal solution:

✅ Low production cost – 3D printing is the most economical manufacturing method for small-scale production.
✅ User-friendly machines – 3D printers are easy to use, don’t require specialized personnel, and don’t produce waste or hazardous materials.
✅ Compact & space-efficient – A 3D printer fits easily in a workshop, a school, or even a home! 🏡
✅ Minimal technical knowledge required – Even someone with little to no mechanical experience can assemble the Rover! 🔧
✅ Easy repair & part replacement – If something breaks, you simply print a new part and keep going!
✅ Complete customization freedom – Modify the Rover to suit your needs without relying on external suppliers for spare parts.

For all these reasons, 3D printing was the best choice! 🏆

🚗 Why Doesn’t the Rover Have a Steering System?

Unlike traditional vehicles 🚙, the Rover doesn’t have a steering system. Instead, it moves using differential wheel rotation.

🔹 How does it work?

• If the right wheels move slower than the left, the Rover turns right.
• If the left wheels move slower than the right, the Rover turns left.
• By controlling both sides independently, the Rover can rotate in place, just like a tank! 🏁

🎯 Why this choice?

✅ Fewer components – Without a steering mechanism, there’s no need for axles, servo motors, or complicated linkages.
✅ Simplified construction – All four wheels are identical, making printing and assembly easier.
✅ Greater maneuverability – The Rover can make sharp turns and navigate tight spaces, making it ideal for industrial & rescue applications.

By eliminating the need for a steering system, we have a rugged, efficient, and easy-to-maintain vehicle! 🚀

🏆 Why Did I Redesign the Wheel?

One of the biggest challenges with similar vehicles was the immense forces applied to the wheel axle, leading to:

❌ Rapid component wear.
❌ Vibrations transferring to the chassis.
❌ High maintenance costs.

🛠 The solution?

✔️ I developed a completely new wheel design that eliminates most of the stress on the axle and distributes forces more evenly.
✔️ This design was so unique and effective that it has been officially patented!

Bonus:
This design also allows for natural suspension, removing the need for additional shock absorbers! 😃

🔋 Why Did I Choose Brushed Motors Instead of Brushless?

The Rover uses brushed motors instead of brushless ones – and for good reason!

📌 What do brushed motors offer compared to brushless?

✅ On-the-spot braking – By short-circuiting the motor’s output, the Rover can decelerate efficiently.
✅ Massive starting torque – The Rover can start instantly, even on rough terrain!
✅ Simpler control – Brushed motors don’t require complex software to function correctly.

Brushless motors may be faster, but in terms of durability, control, and reliability, brushed motors are the best option for the Rover! 🔥

⚙️ Why Did I Choose Larger Motors Than Needed?

More power means more possibilities! 💪

✅ The Rover can carry heavier loads without a problem.
✅ The extra torque ensures better grip and increased stability.
✅ The vehicle can handle high stress & long-term use without breaking down.

It might seem excessive, but trust me – you never regret having more power! 😆

💡 Why Did I Design the Control Tower?

The Control Tower was created to make your life easier!

🛠 What does it do?
✔️ It includes all electronics in a compact, easy-to-install module.
⚡️ It has plug-and-play connections for quick setup.
🔧 It can be easily disassembled and repaired, if necessary!

Even if you have no experience with electronics, you can assemble and operate the Rover without difficulty! 🎉

🔋 Why Did I Choose 18650 Batteries Instead of LiPo?

While LiPo (Lithium Polymer) batteries might seem like the natural choice for the Rover, I decided to use 18650 or 21700 Li-ion cells instead.

📌 Why?

✅ Increased reliability & safety 🔥 – LiPo batteries may provide more power, but they’re far more dangerous. If damaged, they can catch fire, making them unsuitable for workspaces or educational environments. 18650 cells, on the other hand, simply stop working if damaged, without any fire risk.

✅ Longer lifespan 🔄 – 18650 cells last significantly longer than LiPo batteries, maintaining stable performance over many charge cycles.

✅ Durability in harsh conditions 🛠️ – LiPo batteries are sensitive to shocks, punctures, and extreme temperatures. 18650 cells are much more resilient.

✅ Easy replacement & availability 🔄 – 18650 batteries are widely used, making them easy to replace. If one cell fails, you replace just that one, instead of an entire battery pack, as you would with a LiPo.

✅ Perfect for industrial & educational settings 🏫 – The Rover is designed for workshops and classrooms, where safety is the top priority. Choosing 18650 batteries ensures safe, efficient operation without fire hazards.

📌 Conclusion:

LiPo batteries are great for RC models and drones, but they were not the right choice for the Rover due to their safety risks, sensitivity, and high maintenance costs.

By using 18650/21700 Li-ion cells, the Rover becomes more durable, safer, and more reliable for any application! 🚀🔋

🔹 These were just some of the key design decisions behind the Rover!

Do you have any questions? Send me a message, and I’ll be happy to answer! 💬

📌 Remember! Every choice was made with one key goal in mind:
✅ To give you the best, most versatile, and most affordable Rover possible! 🚀

This version keeps the professional yet engaging tone you wanted while making everything clear and easy to read. Let me know if you want any tweaks! 😊

🔍 Introduction to Electronics & Programming of the Rover 🚀

Although the "Programming" and "Mini Electronics" sections are the best places to learn coding, here I will give you a concise overview of all the electronic components of the Control Tower, as well as the fundamental programming principles used in the Rover's operation.

🖥️ What is Programming and What is Coding?

Before you start programming and writing code, it is crucial to understand the big difference between these two concepts.

🔹 Programming

Programming is the logical design process that defines "what" will happen and "when", without writing a single line of code.

For example:

📌 When the rear target is hit, the Rover will reduce its power to 10% for 15 seconds.
📌 After 15 seconds, the Rover will restore its power to 100%.

This is an example of programming for a Battle Bot game. It is written in plain English and does not involve any programming language yet.

🔹 Coding

Coding is the process of translating the programming logic into a language that a computer or microcontroller can understand.

Depending on the microcontroller we use, we will work with two different programming languages:
✅ C++ if using Arduino
✅ Python if using ESP32

📌 Important!
If your programming logic is incorrect, your coding will also be incorrect. Errors in logic lead to errors in execution.

If you can differentiate between programming and coding, your experience in developing the Rover will be much smoother! 🚀

⚙️ Control Tower Components & DIY PCB Modules

Just like the Rover’s mechanical design, I faced major challenges in finding suitable electronic components.

Since I couldn’t find the right hardware, I designed all the PCBs for the Control Tower. In total, I created 68 different PCBs, all of which can be stacked and interconnected!

📌 PCB Features:
✔️ Stackable design – All PCBs can be layered and work together.
✔️ Easy to repair – If something fails, you can replace only the faulty part.
✔️ Through-Hole Technology (THT) – Instead of Surface-Mount Devices (SMD), I used THT components so that repairs can be done with a simple soldering iron!
✔️ Modular pin headers – All modules connect with pins, so you can detach and replace them without soldering.

The Rover is not just a simple RC toy – it is a learning & experimentation tool, which is why all electronics are repairable and upgradable! 🔬

🔋 Battery & Battery Management System (BMS)

The battery is where the Rover stores energy for its operation.

📌 Why did I choose Li-ion instead of LiPo?
✔️ Safety – Li-ion 18650 cells are much safer and don’t risk explosions or fires.
✔️ Longevity – They last more charge cycles compared to LiPo batteries.
✔️ Durability – Unlike LiPo, they don’t get damaged easily from impact or punctures.

The Battery Management System (BMS) is the PCB that manages the battery pack and serves as the main power distribution system.

🔹 Features of the BMS in the Control Tower:
✅ Includes DC-DC converters to step down 16V to 9V, 5V, and 3.3V.
✅ Balance Charging Circuit ensures equal charge distribution across all battery cells.

⚡ DC-DC Converter (Voltage Step-Down Module)

DC-DC converters are small circuits that convert the 16V battery power to 9V, 5V, or 12V for different components.

📌 Why are these separate modules instead of being built-in?
✔️ Replaceable in case of failure – If a converter burns out, you replace just that module!
✔️ Reliability – Separating power circuits prevents failures from damaging the entire system.

🔌 Main Power Distribution Board (PDB)

The PDB is the main power board, responsible for distributing energy to all components.

📌 Why does it have two separate circuits?
✔️ One circuit for 5V controlled power (for logic circuits).
✔️ One circuit for 16V high-power output (for motors).

This dual-circuit system ensures that the Rover does not run off unexpectedly while you are programming! 🚀

🧠 Arduino Core Board (Main Control Module)

The Arduino Core Board is the brain of the Rover!

✔️ Compatible with both ESP32 and Arduino microcontrollers.
✔️ Includes an LCD screen and 3 buttons for easy interaction.
✔️ Removable & replaceable – If it fails, you can swap it out with a new one!

⚙️ H-Bridge (Motor Driver & Differential Steering)

The H-Bridge is the circuit that controls the Rover’s movement.

📌 How does it work?
✅ It receives 16V power from the battery.
✅ It has two outputs, one for each side of the Rover.
✅ It controls the speed & direction of the motors.

📌 For 4x4 Configuration:
✔️ Uses two motors per side.
✔️ Requires an active cooling fan due to higher power consumption.

📌 For 3x2 Configuration:
✔️ Uses one motor per side.
✔️ Does not require cooling as the load is lower.

🔹 This was a brief introduction to the Rover’s electronics & programming!

The 3D Printed Rovers I’ve designed are not just remote-controlled vehicles. They are learning tools, a gateway to experimentation, discovery, and development in 3D printing, mechanical assembly, and electronics.

To understand how we got here, let’s take a step-by-step look at our journey:

🔹 2012 – The Beginning of the Journey

I graduated from the Mechanical Vehicle Engineering Department in Thessaloniki. Since then, I was always drawn to innovation and unconventional ideas—I never wanted to follow the standard path. My interest in Arduino and hydrogen energy led me to my first DIY cars and robotic projects.

🔹 2014 – The First Big Challenge

A high school from Mytilene approached me for help with an exciting competition: CanSat Europe.

📌 Goal: Build a mini satellite that would be launched with a rocket 2.5 km high and collect data.
📌 Method: We used 3D printing, which was still in its infancy in 2014.
📌 Result: The team traveled to Norway and won 2nd place in Europe!

🔥 This was when I realized the power of hands-on learning. The students weren’t just learning—they were creating, competing, feeling excitement, and achieving success.

🔹 2019 – Taking the Leap: Opening the Robotics Lab

After years of experimentation and professional exploration, I decided to invest in STEM education.

📌 I opened Mytilene’s first robotics lab.
📌 The lab was filled with micro:bit, Arduino, and LEGO Education.
📌 We had arena battles, educational projects, and students of all ages.

🛑 The Problem:
While students were initially excited, their interest faded over time as they grew older.

The traditional learning method—📖 Theory, 🔧 Assembly, 🔍 Observation—wasn’t engaging enough. Something was missing.

🔹 2020 – The Moment of Inspiration: Creating the First 3D Printed Rover

To keep students engaged, I needed to rethink the entire learning process.

📌 Goal: Design an educational tool that could inspire, challenge, and sustain excitement in learning.
📌 Solution: A fully 3D-printed rover.

✔ Modular design – allows infinite customization.
✔ Easy repairs – students can fix it themselves.
✔ Designed to “break” – students learn by troubleshooting and improving their designs.

💡 Every failure becomes a learning opportunity. Students weren’t just assembling—they were understanding, fixing, and optimizing their own rovers.

🔹 2021 – The Patent & System Testing

In 2021, we took the next big step:

📌 Filed for a patent for the rover’s design.
📌 Experimented with VR cameras, new materials, and different wheel configurations.
📌 Battle-tested the rovers in real-life robotics arenas.

📢 The result:
The students went crazy for it. The rover became the ultimate learning tool.

🔥 It wasn’t just another project—it was an experience, a gamified way of learning.

🔹 2022 – Expanding into Larger Rovers

As the project evolved, we realized that these small rovers could also serve beyond the classroom:

✔ STEM education in schools and robotics labs.
✔ Testing platforms for research institutions and universities.
✔ Industrial and defense applications for exploration and logistics.

📌 That’s when we decided to scale up, creating larger, more durable rovers capable of carrying heavier payloads and operating in demanding environments.

🔹 2023-2024 – The Project Today & The Future

📌 Building a comprehensive educational platform for teachers and students.
📌 Developing new rovers with autonomy, FPV control, and specialized applications.
📌 Expanding the project globally to make it a worldwide educational tool.

🚀 The Vision
I want to create a community of educators, makers, and learners who use the rover to explore, experiment, and innovate.

The journey continues… and now you can be part of it! 🎯

📌 The Goal: Designing the Ultimate Vehicle

When I set out to design the first 3D Printed Rover, I had to meet very specific requirements:

✔ Simple to build – Fewer parts mean easier assembly.
✔ Easy to use and maintain – It should be quick to assemble and repair, even for students and educators.
✔ Extremely durable – A robotics lab cannot afford to constantly replace broken parts.
✔ Modular and customizable – It had to support different configurations, from FPV cameras to battle-ready attachments.
✔ Affordable – Schools and educators should be able to access and use it.
✔ Visually impressive – To keep students engaged and excited.
✔ Safe to use – Suitable for educational environments without risks.

To achieve this, I designed an entirely new type of vehicle, where all critical components (motor, steering system, ESC, and gearbox) would be integrated into a single module.

🚧 The Problems with Earlier Designs

The initial concept worked, but the first prototypes had serious durability issues.

🔻 The wheels were directly mounted on the motor, which caused huge stress on the gears and axles.
🔻 After just a few days of battle use, most vehicles broke down completely.
🔻 The impacts and collisions transferred directly to the gearbox, causing failures.

✅ The Solution: A Revolutionary Wheel Design

💡 To solve the problem, I designed a new type of wheel that absorbs shocks and impacts.

✔ The wheel now has a built-in suspension system!
✔ Lobed sections in the tire absorb shocks, protecting the motor and gears.
✔ The flexible material (TPU) allows the internal hub to handle pressure, rather than the gearbox absorbing the damage.
✔ Instead of a rigid connection, a flexible coupler was used, which reduces sudden loads on the motor.

The result?
📌 The new Rover design could now withstand weeks of combat in arenas without breaking!

📜 The Patent Registration Process

Once I had perfected the design, I needed to patent it – a process that turned out to be far more complex than I expected.

📌 Two close relatives with experience in patent writing helped me navigate the process.
📌 The designs I had to submit were completely different from my technical models.
📌 Instead of colorful 3D models, I had to submit technical cross-sections, numbered dimensions, and detailed function descriptions.

💡 Without their guidance, the process would have been nearly impossible.

After months of preparation, the patent was submitted and officially approved, marking a major milestone in the project’s development.

🎯 The Rover Today

📌 After countless tests and refinements, the 3D Printed Rover is now a fully developed, durable, and educational tool.
📌 The modern versions continue to be improved based on the lessons learned throughout this journey.
📌 The patent protects the innovative design approach, while the project remains open to educators and makers who want to further develop it.

🚀 This was the journey from concept to patent approval – and the adventure continues! 🎯

The Ultimate Way to Keep Kids Engaged!

The primary reason the Rover was created was to captivate older kids. It’s easy to engage younger children aged 7-12, but after 12+, things get tricky. Kids lose interest, and you have to start from scratch recruiting new students from elementary school.

How much better would it be if you could keep students engaged all the way through high school?

That’s why I created the Rover from day one – and if you’ve read the story, you already know this! 🚀

🏢 My Lab Model – A First-Hand Experience

In my 250m² workshop lab, I set up a tech-driven makerspace, filled with machines, 3D printers, and computers, where kids could drop in whenever they wanted to learn, assemble, and create.

📌 Unlike traditional educational spaces, I wasn’t restricted by:
✔ Fixed hours & rigid lesson plans.
✔ Complicated certifications or school regulations.
✔ The need for full-time instructors.

The only thing I needed? A simple café license! ☕

With this model, kids flocked to the lab, because they had never experienced this kind of freedom to learn and create.

📈 Explosive Growth in Student Numbers!

I started with just 3-4 kids.
📌 In less than a month, I had over 80 enrolled students! 🚀

The only problem?
📌 The kids didn’t want to leave!
Parents had to drag them out of the lab because they wanted to stay longer!

With the Rover and the workshop, kids found their own creative space.

✔ No more internet cafés or arcades – This became their new hangout spot!
✔ A space where they could meet friends, exchange ideas, build and design.

And the best part?
📌 No little kids!
✅ I only accepted kids aged 12+, which meant no babysitting, feeding, or distractions!

🔧 How You Can Use the Rover in Your Own Lab!

📌 Same collaboration model as previous categories:
✔ Leasing Rover Units – Rent Rovers for use in your space.
✔ Buying Full Rover Systems – Own and manage them yourself.

The Rover consists of three main assemblies, designed to offer easy assembly, repair, and upgradeability.

📌 The Core Components of the Rover

1️⃣ Main Chassis
📌 The main chassis provides the structural frame of the vehicle, serving as the foundation for the entire system.

2️⃣ Control Tower
📌 All electronic components are mounted on the Control Tower, which includes:
✔ Main Controller & Microprocessor
✔ Battery & Power Management System
✔ Receiver & H-Bridge (for motor control)
✔ Data Transmission System & Wireless Communication

3️⃣ Rear Section – Modular Setup
📌 Depending on the Rover's configuration, you can choose:
✔ 4x4 setup – Full four-wheel drive with two additional rear motors.
✔ 3x2 setup – Featuring a single rear caster wheel, offering more agility and a lower cost.

🛠 Wheel & Hub Design

📌 The Rover's tires are 3D-printed using TPU, which provides excellent flexibility and grip.

📌 Important Considerations When Printing Tires:
✔ There are left and right tires, so the lobes are mirrored for proper traction and balance.
✔ This ensures optimal force distribution and better handling on different terrains.

📌 Hubs Are Different for the Front and Rear Wheels:
✔ In the 3x2 configuration, the rear hubs house the motors.
✔ In the 4x4 configuration, each hub has an independent motor for fully controllable movement.
✔ Carefully assemble the motors inside the hubs to ensure proper alignment and function.

🛠 Assembly & Repair

✔ Never use thread-locking glue!
📌 The screws fasten directly into plastic, and if you apply glue, attempting to unscrew them later may cause the insert to spin inside the plastic, forcing you to reprint or cut the part.

✔ Use an Allen key and check the screws regularly!
📌 Tighten the screws properly, but avoid excessive force to prevent damaging the plastic parts.

✔ Easy Access to Internal Components
📌 The Rover can be split into two sections, allowing quick part replacement without full disassembly.

📌 It's 100% 3D-Printed!
✔ If something breaks, you can reprint and replace it in just a few hours.
✔ All components are designed for easy replacement and modular customization.

📌 Each product contains all the related spare parts, neatly organized in one place, so you can find exactly what you need.

🔍 How to Order Spare Parts Correctly

✔ Order parts separately:
For example, if you need the front right suspension arm and the rear right suspension arm, you must add them to your cart separately.
There is no option to buy multiple spare parts as a set – this is to avoid mistakes during the ordering process.

✔ No screws or accessories included!
All spare parts in this section are 3D-printed components only!
📌 No screws, nuts, or electronics are included.
📌 If you need screws and hardware, check the "Project Parts" or "Project Kits" sections.

✔ If you need a complete Mod or Rover:
This section is only for spare parts! If you're looking for a full Rover or an entire Mod, visit the appropriate product category.

⚠ Spare Parts Compatibility

✔ Check your Rover version carefully!
We are currently on Version 1, but future versions may have different spare parts that are not compatible with earlier models.
📌 Make sure you select the correct version before placing your order!

✔ Left & Right-Specific Parts:
Some components have left and right variations, such as suspension arms and wheel hubs.
📌 Double-check that you are ordering the correct part for the correct side!

✔ Not sure which spare part you need?
Check out the "Project Parts" category where everything is neatly organized by type, or contact us before placing your order.

🚀 Easily repair your Rover with 3D-printed spare parts that can be replaced in just minutes!

Step-by-Step Guide

Since we need to fit many components into a very compact space, the assembly process for the Rover follows a strict and specific order. Below is an overview of the steps required to assemble your Rover properly.
After reading, make sure to watch the video tutorial above for a detailed, visual explanation of each step.

📌 Step 1: Mounting the Motors into the Wheel Hubs

✔ This is the most crucial step!
The entire Rover structure is built around the motors, so they must be installed into the wheel hubs first before proceeding.

📌 Step 2: Installing the Front LED Lights

✔ Install the LED lights before closing the Rover!
Once the assembly is complete, you won’t have enough space to fit your fingers inside to install them later.

📌 Step 3: Attaching the Hub Plates

✔ Secure the plates onto the hubs.
It’s important to follow the correct order—if you mount the plates after assembling the Rover, you won’t be able to tighten the inner screws properly.

📌 Step 4: Mounting the Plates to the Rover Frame

✔ Attach the hub plates to the front frame section and the middle chassis plate.
At this stage, the basic structure of the Rover begins to take shape.

📌 Step 5: Assembling the Rear Section

✔ If using the 4x4 version, connect the two additional motors.
✔ If using the 3x2 version, install the free-rolling rear caster wheel instead.

⚠ Important Assembly Tips

✔ Double-check every screw as you go!
Ensure that all screws are properly seated but not overtightened—you’re working with 3D-printed plastic components, and excessive force can damage them.

✔ No Threadlock Glue!
Never use threadlocker on screws! If you ever need to unscrew a part, the metal insert inside the plastic might rotate freely, forcing you to reprint the entire component.

✔ Check and tighten all screws after 4-5 hours of gameplay.
Due to vibrations and stress, many screws will loosen slightly during the initial use. A quick re-tightening will keep everything secure.

✔ Minimal tools required!
The entire assembly can be done using just three Allen keys, making it simple and efficient without requiring special tools.

✔ The video guide covers everything.
I’ve designed the tutorial to be straightforward and easy to follow, ensuring you don’t miss any steps or get lost during assembly.

✔ If you choose to disassemble and reassemble the Rover multiple times, good luck!
Many users end up taking their Rover apart 10+ times before getting the perfect setup.

✔ No left or right difference for the suspension arms.
All suspension arms are identical, so you don’t have to worry about orientation when installing them.

🚀 Follow these steps carefully, and your Rover will be up and running in no time!

Setup & Installation Guide

The Kill Mod is a crucial add-on for Battle Bot gameplay and is designed to be mounted on vehicles with a 3x2 configuration.

📌 Purpose of the Mod:
✔ To send hit detection signals to the Control Tower when the vehicle is struck by an opponent.
✔ To allow hit tracking and damage management through a custom software system that calculates “life loss” in the game.

📦 Components Included

The Kill Mod consists of the following parts:

✔ TPU Target (Shock Pad) – the component that absorbs hits from other bots.
✔ Terminal Switch Base – holds the limit switches in place.
✔ Base Connector – attaches the base to the Rover chassis.
✔ Limit Switch with Wiring – detects hits and sends data to the Control Tower.

🛑 Important:
📌 The Kill Mod components are mirrored—meaning they can be used on both the left and right sides of the vehicle.

⚙ Assembly Process

🔹 Step 1: Remove the screws from the rear wheel assembly of the Rover.
🔹 Step 2: Secure the Terminal Switch Base onto the frame of the vehicle.
🔹 Step 3: Attach the Base Connectors to the Rover chassis using screws.
🔹 Step 4: Mount the TPU Target onto the Base Connector and tighten it securely.
🔹 Step 5: Connect the wiring from the Limit Switches to the Control Tower of the Rover.
🔹 Step 6: Upload the new software to the Control Tower, so the system can register hits and apply game logic accordingly.

📌 Key Features & Functions

✔ Code Update Required:
When installing the Kill Mod, a new firmware update must be uploaded to the Control Tower, ensuring proper hit detection and battle mechanics.

✔ Damage & Hit Management System:
The Rover software can track how many hits a vehicle has taken and activate different game mechanics such as:
🔄 Returning to the “home base” for regeneration after taking a hit.
🛡 Temporary invincibility after regeneration to prevent instant knockouts.
🎯 Kill zones & scoring system to record and reward successful hits.

✅ With this mod installed, your Rover is now fully equipped for Battle Bot combat! 🚀

Terms & Conditions

To access new designs, mods, and vehicles, you must follow specific rules. If you violate these terms, I simply won’t be able to continue developing new products.

❌ What You MUST NOT Do

🚨 1. DO NOT SHARE my files

The files you purchase are for personal use only. If you distribute them for free or sell them, you will only kill the project. This is my full-time job—if I don’t have revenue, I will simply stop working on it.

If that happens, you lose, not me.

⚠ 2. DO NOT USE my Rovers commercially WITHOUT A LICENSE

If you want to rent, host events, or run workshops using my vehicles, you must pay for the appropriate license or franchise fee. If you skip this, you are not allowed to use them professionally.

Don’t want to pay? No problem. Go buy something else. Other commercial solutions cost 10-20 times more, but that’s your choice.

🚫 3. DO NOT RUN a workshop using my Rovers without a license

If you own a robotics academy, educational center, or makerspace, you need a license. If you don’t have one, you are violating my terms, and I will take legal action. Don’t try it—I have a strong team behind me.

📸 4. DO NOT PUBLICLY ADVERTISE that you 3D print my Rovers WITHOUT A LICENSE

If you post photos or announce that you are 3D printing my Rovers without the required license, I will have to take legal action. I won’t allow this.

✅ What You MUST Do

✔ Follow the rules and pay the required subscription or license fee.
✔ Respect the fact that this is my full-time job.
✔ If you follow the rules, I will continue to create incredible mods, new vehicles, and unique features for you.

💡 Why I Let You Download the Files Instead of Selling Only Physical Rovers

The Rover is a patented design. I could have locked it and only sold physical products. Instead, I chose to make it available as downloadable files so you can get it at a lower price.

In return, I expect you to respect the terms of use.

If you try to cheat the system, you won’t just lose this product—you’ll also lose access to the 39 upcoming designs I have planned.

📌 What you see now is just the beginning. The big projects are coming, but only if you support me.

⚠ Pay Attention to Rover Versions

The Rover is constantly evolving, and new versions may not be compatible with older parts.

If you buy something that isn’t compatible with your older Rover, that’s entirely your responsibility. I won’t accept returns or exchanges for incorrect purchases.

📌 If you’re unsure about compatibility, ask BEFORE you buy.

🔴 If you follow these rules, you’ll continue to have access to unique designs and advanced Mods. If not, you’re out.
