hello.. i am trying to model in 3d the mars rover and can't find the correct material, so I was wondering whether anyone in here has access to more information than I do and cares to help.
I am looking for detailed pictures of rover parts from all sides (top, left, right and bottom). I am attaching a few pics for the members to see the progress of my work. Trying to be as accurate as possible. Process is really slow since I have to make stuff out of bad reference pics I've tried collecting material from the nasa site, from raw images coming from the rover, from roobtics' sites etc, but couldn't come up with the correct reference i am seeking. if anyone cares to help, please do so -------------------- |

So, hm, cool
So, it is safe to assume that the holes are used for allowance to oxygen for the explosion to take place. Can someone please verify this? If so, I'll get away with not modeling a few stuff -------------------- |

Speaking about pyros, I've marked up your image:
The metal piece in the yellow circle is the pyro assembly. The cables going through the pyros are indicated by two pink lines (same ones that are on the right hand side in the animation being cut). The red circle shows the trigger connections to the pyros, and they go where the red arrows are pointing. This picture shows them disconnected during assembly for obvious reasons - they are most likely connected at the very last stage of the assembly process. |
