You should check out the Input manager. This allows you to bind any keys you like to different input “axes” and read them from your script.

that’s my little “hovertank”

var speed = 10;
var turnSpeed = 30;


function Update () {
	
	print ("current speed = " + speed);

	if (Input.GetKey ("up"))
	{
		transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * Time.deltaTime * speed);
		//transform.Rotate(Time.deltaTime * -12, 0, 0, Space.World);
		//transform.Rotate(Vector3.up * 50 * Time.deltaTime,Space.World);
	}
	 
	 if (Input.GetKey ("down"))
	{
		transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * Time.deltaTime * speed * -1);
		//transform.Rotate(Time.deltaTime * 12, 0, 0, Space.World);
		//transform.Rotate(Vector3.down * 50 * Time.deltaTime,Space.World);
	}

	if (Input.GetKey ("left"))
	{
		//transform.Rotate(0, Time.deltaTime * 16, 0);
		transform.Rotate(0, Time.deltaTime * turnSpeed * -1, 0, Space.Self);
		//transform.Rotate(Vector3.left * 50 * Time.deltaTime,Space.World);
	}

	if (Input.GetKey ("right")) 
	{
		transform.Rotate(0, Time.deltaTime * turnSpeed, 0, Space.Self);
		//transform.Rotate(Vector3.right * 50 * Time.deltaTime,Space.World);
	} 
}

attach it to a rigid-body and it will crawl acros any Surface when you press arrow keys. Ajust speed as needed.

You can insert any key to your need where there is:
up, right, left, and so on.
