So you just need a Rover, a Small Platform, something to connect the small platform to so it stay grounded (small power generator or another platform) and a Winch.

-Make an elevated platform with your Terrain Tool.
-Put the Small Platform on it and ground it with the appliance of your choice.
-Connect the Winch on the Small Plateform.
-Put your Rover under all this
-Connect the Winch to the Rover
-Enter the Rover
-Wait 10s
-Blip Bloop

This does not seem to work for any other players besides the host it appears. A friend of mine tried this after I successfully got it and the rover was just weighted down when they got in it.

I drove off a cliff in a tractor (so not even a true rover) with 3 trailers attached, the tractor hung mid-air while the trailers anchored me on top of the cliff. Bleep Boop.

Way too complicated. I made a small ramp going up (used 2 small canister), placed 2 hydrazyne trusters on rover, drove up the ramp and a little before i reached the end of it, i started the engine. I actually launched myself into space! I used the trusters to come back down to the planet. Drove my rover back to nearest gateway, repackage the whole thing and fast travelled back to my base... All in a days work :)

Not working for me tonight. Don't think I'm doing it wrong. Patched out maybe?

@Ackis Yep, I tried it with a buddy of mine the other day and it didn't work, I think it was patched.

I used this method and it worked fine? Got to remember it has to be the rover. The tractor wont get you this.

This works. I just made sure the rover wasn't touching the rock and hanging free.

I inadvertently popped this achievement by having a multi car rover and wound up having my lead car dangling off a cliff.

This method worked for me, but it seemed none of my wheels (or maybe the buggy chasis) could be touching the elevated platform for it to pop. Per the picture, the buggy is resting on the underneath of the ramp.

I hung a large platform with the winch on the very edge of my ramp to ensure the buggy was actually hanging without touching anything, only the winch. Good luck!

This is the one I went for for. Massive hill as high as possible and went flying!

Neither of the other solutions worked for me.

I made a massive ramp and attached 2 hydrazine packs to the back of the rover and took off.

So much more enjoyable to do it this way.

*it seems like only the driver gets this, but not a host only achievement

I got this achievement while digging to the core of Vesania in a medium rover with a drill. Near the core it's all massive caverns and the achievement popped while I was falling through one of those. I couldn't get the rover back up to the surface though, and I think abandoning rovers at the cores of planets is a common theme in this game :)

I found a bit of a different way to accomplish the same goal with the wench. I used my large rover attached the wench to the front of my rover. With my buggy, I attached the wench to my buggy and removed all the land underneath the buggy until it was hanging in the air. I jumped in the buggy and wah-lah I got the achievement. https://flic.kr/s/aHsmUgt44S

Forget messing around with ramps and spending hours digging for soil to make a ramp high enough to try and try and try again falling for ten seconds.

Later in the game, you'll be using a rover to dig to each planets core. Once you get to that point, actually dig into the core and you'll 'float' down for at minimum ten seconds.

If you somehow don't manage to do it, drive to the platform where you place the core's requested item, then simply drive off of it at full speed. You will for sure float about for +ten seconds then.

So for those that prefer a good video guide, here is the video I used to help me nab this one. Not my video, but simple to follow and worked great!

One trick that can be done is to make a ramp with the terrain tool, then placing a small platform with a winch on it, you then attach the winch to the rover (The tractor is the easies to use) then you dig the terrain out from under it until it is just dangling there, finally you get on it and wait 10 seconds (if it does not work check to see that it is not touching an little voxel of terrain.

You take a large rover, attach two simple rocket boosters to it at the back, prepare yourself a decent springboard by leveling the soil, drive onto it, chop off the engines with the left or right bumper and set off on a long, long flight. You will fly very far, be prepared for a long journey back to the base.
