Yeah, but they launched it just last year, right?
Cries in old

2020 was only last year right? … right?!?

I'm still confused about when there was ever a helicopter vs. just a rover

To test the concept, now they know that it works they can come up with a dedicated mission that can cover a lot more ground - the rovers are slllloooowwwwwwww.

Sure but can helicopters draw dicks in the sand?
-
Even just for finding the best path for a rover, interesting places for a rover to go, you can make much better use of the extremely limited speed of a rover

It was really just a drone.
