Thanks Rob. If I remember rightly it was stumbling across your 4x4 articulated
Rover which sparked my interest in developing a LEGO Rover. I liked the way you
mechanically articulated wheel position to mimic the type of movement found in
Sojourner.
Have you seen Joe Nagata MOC which seems to have similar capabilities

You should check out Miguel Agullos Rover Differtimento.

It has a similar steering style but is mechanically quite different. It uses a
skid steer approach. We were discussing the merits of calling this type of Rover
steering as "differential driven skid steerers", or perhaps "differential
steerers" or even "articulated differential steering" rovers after your
articulated 4x4. I preferred "articulated differential steering". Any
thoughts?
