RE: The first Mars rover designed for Earth
Hi @futurethinker!
It weights around 8 (17,5 lbs) and it can carry at least 5 kg of additional equipment :)
And it can drive constantly around 4 hours :)

Very neat! How long is the charge time?
1,5 hours. And the battery is easy to replace, so you can actually work constantly - you replace the battery and the new one will last much longer than needed to recharge the previous one :)
During tests we had actually another problem - if you use your smartphone to control the rover, your phone can sometimes discharge quicker than Turtle :)
