Transforming Lego Technic Tank - Howitzer - Full RC

I wanted to build a tank for a while now, but not a regular tank... I don't really do regular...😅
Instead I came up with this fully remote controlled unusual transforming machine.

I wanted it to have a MASSIVELY powerful looking main gun, so I made a rubber band powered recoil system that really slams back the howitzer canon.

Once that was sort of working I build a tank around that, engineered to deal with the massive recoil, hence the unusually complex folding mechanism.
I really wanted it to be a jack of all trades so I also added an anti-air gun with alternating barrel recoil system and retractable gatling guns on either side.

Naturally everything needed to be fully remote controlled, so I ended up using 18 power functions motors and 5 sbrick s to power and control it all.
