Thrust control module. The thrust will be limited to two sources, one in the front and the other on the back of the robot respectively. These gas-powered thrusters will use nitrogen (outside the ISS [International Space Station]) or pressurised air (inside the ISS) and will be designed to last at least some hours of intensive use. The thruster's control will have adaptive "intelligence", for extra speed or weigh situations. This will provide an always secure flight, independent of abnormal robot conditions.
