Put hydrazine canisters on the thruster, put the thruster on the bumper slots of rovers, Z/X keys toggle power to the thrusters.

Put them on the front and back and once you're in the air you can move yourself about quite well by switching between them like a rocket.

Also, you get far more fuel than you think, the thrusters last for quite a long time.

what do you mean switching between them? And don't you need to run both of them at the same time?

The front and rear bumpers work like your auxillary slots on your backpack, if you put a thruster on each bumper of the medium rover, one will work on Z the other on X, so you can push yourself forward, but you can also 'put the breaks on' by switching on the front thruster as it'll push you backwards.

This just means press Z to fire the rear, press Z to stop, press X to fire the other thruster, press Z to fire the rear again, now both of them are working, don't do that, press X, now you're going forward, easy. :steamhappy:

If you fire yourself off a ramp and get some air (you can make it from barren to terran in a large rover) you can then thruster rear/thrust front to push you in whatever direction you want.

If you're using the large rover you need to have two thrusters on the same bumper, so you'll want 4 of them if you want them on the front. I think if you just want to use it like NOZ, stick with 2 at the back and put your seat on the front, with two large storage on the back, I find it makes the rover more stable and you can load balance it with items in the slots if you need.
