LEGO Tumbler (Motorized) by Sariel

We can dream, right?
Paul "Sariel", a 29-year-old MOCeur Technic from Poland who is no longer presented, offers a MOC which obviously speaks to me more than public works vehicles or tanks: A motorized and radio-controlled Tumbler.

MOCeur explains in detail on his website the various technical challenges that he had to meet to achieve the result that you can discover in the video below. Front suspensions, reinforcement of the front part of the chassis, steering system of the front wheels, problems posed by the design of the Tumbler itself with angles not very Catholic to reproduce, etc ...

Anyway, I don't know anything about Technic, but I bet that those who are interested will take the trouble to read what Sariel writes about his MOC.

The others will do like me: They will drool in front of the video.
