Update: October 2003

M.O.P Rover
Red Rover Goes To Mars Project
DIY MOC
Pre-Classic Space Rovers

Phew, how time flies. It’s now halfway through October and it seems like
only last week I was putting the finishing touches on the BrickVista site.
October’s update sees the addition of more things ‘Rover’ with a MindStorms
compatible Rover MOC (complete with Building Instructions), New links,
MOC’s, and some new renderings sprinkled through the site.
I hope you enjoy them.

M.O.P Rover
The Modular Ordinance Platform (M.O.P) is a general purpose
Rover chassis which is capable of supporting many different
operational configurations and mission requirements. It allows
for customization and re-configuration of many Rover Sub-systems
while still retaining a common chassis and operational footprint.
Don’t forget to check out the Building Instructions!

Red Rover Goes To Mars
Initially the M.O.P Rover was developed to meet
the Red Rover Goes To Mars – Build A Better Rover
competition guidelines. The Red Rover Project is an
initiative between the Planetary Society and the
LEGO® Company which gives everyone the
experience of exploring an unknown world through
the eyes of a robotic Rover.

DIY MOC @ BrickVista
The M.O.P Rover is the first MOC on BrickVista to have an
accompanying set of BI’s. When ever you see the DIY MOC
logo besides a model on the BrickVista site you know it has
its own Building Instructions. Just click the icon and your
building. All BrickVista DIY MOC’s have a complete parts list,
stepped LDraw file and Bill of Material(BOM) image for download.

Pre-Classic Space Rovers
For the .Space crowd, in the sprit of Chris Gidden’s Pre-Classic
Space Theme two Rovers for download and inclusion into your
next MoonBase project.

BrickVista continues to grow each month with additional features and models
coming on line so come back often and take a look around. I hope you enjoy
BrickVista as much as I have in putting it together.

So remember to BrickVista and invent the future!

Cheers Tom Beattie

		Re: BrickVista October Update
Hi Tom! Very nice, it all looks very professional and clean. I have one beef with the site though, while displaying the list of MOC's all image links goes to the YogiCub model. I'd much prefer if they went to a subpage of each MOC or was not linked (...) (21 years ago, 21-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)
