The Terra-Gup 7 is a hovering Terra-Gup, introduced in Above & Beyond Season 3, specifically in the Snowshoe Hares episode.

Unlike the other Terra-Gup's introduced in the spin-off, the TG-7 is a modified version of an existing gup, the Gup-M. In it's debut episode, Tweak can be seen de-mantling and taking out parts of the Gup-M to modify it (into a 'new Gup'). This Terra-Gup was created to fill in the Gup-M's tire tracks in order to prevent coyotes from hunting the still-brown-furred snowshoe hares. The idea for the Terra-Gup first came from Dashi's wandercam, though Tweak was then additionally inspired by snowshoe hares.

The Terra-Gup features four propellers (replacing the three tires on the Gup-M) that allow it to hover smoothly. The propellers are able to erase tracks below and create large piles of snow, blocking predators. Tweak painted the Terra-Gup bright blue, covering the pre-existing brown of the Gup-M. It doesn’t feature a basket like one of the Gup-M's, but it does have a small platform behind the seat, where Molly was seen sitting after being rescued. Therefore, it can only seat one driver and a small passenger at the back.

The Terra-Gup can move quite swiftly, being able to 'jump' to higher and lower levels while hovering.
