Wow. I have to say I'm very impressed by engineering of this model. It's
reminiscent of Tamiya's radio-controlled "Bullhead" monster truck, but with
the nice fact that the motors are located within the chassis and not beside
the axles. I still haven't figured it all out either, but one thing that
struck me, having had the chance a few years ago to examine the real Bigfoot
trucks first hand, is that I think it would be nice to operate the steering
via pneumatics or are there Technic hydraulics perhaps?
