Tatra 813 Kolos 8x8 - Cross RC DC8 - presentation RC scale truck

A short presentation of the external appearance of the model, driving videos will soon appear on my channel. This is a 1/11 scale model of the Czech Tatra 813 Kolos 8x8 truck (although the manufacturer of the model declares a scale of 1/12). The model was built from the Cross RC DC8 kit, which I bought in the Belgian MCM Racing shop: Including all the breaks, and there were a lot of them, it took me about 8 months to assemble the model. The inspiration for such painting of the model was a photo of a real truck from the article: Tara trucks have a characteristic structure - a central load carrying backbone tube, independent swinging half-axles. They had been produced since 1967 to 1982. The Tatra 813 can tow trailers with a total weight of up to 100 tons. A noticeable characteristic of Tatra trucks is also the fact that the wheels of the unladen vehicle are arranged in the shape of the letter “V“.
