Insight Mars Lander
InSight is a robotic lander designed to study the deep interior of Mars. It's managed by NASA, and most of its scientific instruments were built by European agencies. The mission launched on 5 May 2018.
wikipedia
This replica is as accurate as I could get get in size. It has retractable landing gear, two deployable experiments (Seis and HP3) with his 3 axis robotic arm (it's a challenge) and of course the two round deployable solar panels.
use slider 1, 2 , roll, pitch and yaw with auto stabilisation off to control the arm.
enjoy

Amazing! It is a little bit of a pain to grab the equipment and plant them on the ground but I’ll get better! xD I think the actual rocket should be on the list!

It's super detailed!!! And I couldn't do those circular solar panels, they would look more like hexagonal panels...

@MarioG The problem is that even with just the deck it was already to heavy. It's a bit to long the real one is more square but still it's weird.

@Mrmaraunet that is about right. the probe was made to be ultra light since is was launched on the Atlas V 401 series the weakest but cheapest atlas version. i wanted to launch it on my RSS atlas V 401 series replica but the weight is so high it passed its max payload capacity for LEO which is 8 tons.

yeah I think the fuel tank is to big, I've made it with just this website and there is not much. Wikipedia says it's 358 kg but it's way to light so idk. @MarioG
