Ugears NASA Luna Rover

Celebrate human ingenuity and the spirit of exploration with the Ugears NASA Lunar Rover. Inspired by the iconic Lunar Roving Vehicle used during the Apollo missions, this 1:15 scale wooden model captures the innovation and adventure of space exploration in a dynamic, hands-on build.

This spring-driven model features rotating and pivoting wheels, allowing it to travel up to 3 metres on a single wind. A clever folding mechanism mirrors the original rover’s design, transforming it into a compact form for transport before unfolding into a fully functional exploration vehicle. As the model expands, the wheels and axles snap satisfyingly into place, showcasing the ingenuity of its engineering.

Packed with realistic details, the Lunar Rover includes folding seats, a deployable dish antenna, a front-mounted camera arm and engraved elements that reflect the wiring and structure of the original vehicle. Rubber components provide traction, while the wind-up key and Start/Stop mechanism allow you to control its movement with ease.

With 319 parts and an intermediate difficulty level, this model offers a rewarding challenge for builders who enjoy mechanical complexity. Like all Ugears kits, it is assembled from precision laser-cut wooden pieces without glue or special tools, using step-by-step illustrated instructions.

Perfect for space enthusiasts, aspiring engineers and model hobbyists, the NASA Lunar Rover is both an engaging build and an impressive display piece. Whether you’re fascinated by the Apollo missions or simply love innovative design, this model brings the excitement of lunar exploration right to your fingertips.
