Found it via the Aptear Discord channel: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/embedded-video/mmvo188945989602?fbclid=IwAR0wC3r5W02Wliet3vuYwAX_XrP46XL75hC3MAbxXsT--m7qBkCRvo1uE84
It appears that this vehicle was a gamma build (prototype) from 18 months ago: Commentary from the discord channel: "As you are aware, Gamma was a snapshot in time from 18 months ago. While Gamma is not a production vehicle, it is a monumental step in that direction. We are applying all of the knowledge learned from the Gamma phase of development into our upcoming Delta builds, which the team is excited to test and validate thanks to your support. In the meantime, Gamma is receiving select upgrades to show off more production capabilities. We are excited to show off those upgrades in the coming weeks." I do personally find it a little disconcerting that the response "you must be the first to drive it up a hill" was given, it's not very confidence instilling. I sure hope they come back in the next week or so with a better explanation like "We are aware of the problem with the Gamma prototypes and have addressed it in later revisions" including some engineering details about thermal limits and expectations. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
