🌧️ Can I leave it out in the elements (e.g rain)?

Yes it can get wet. We do not recommend operating it during the rain and that is why schedule and weather forecasts make it easy. As with any outdoor tool, the more it is covered, the longer it will be protected. Please do not submerge the rover in water.
