Easy Up, Easy Down

Instructions are available on opening the craft. Credit to MrsKiwiexe for the inspiration for this project.

Description

This particular vehicle is a demonstrator for a hooklift-style loading system. While inspired by MrsKiwiexe's excellent M1075 PLS build, I felt that there could be major improvements in user-friendliness. This is the result.

The chassis is an extensive modernization of the older Bandit Danube build, a heavy-duty military truck made for the fictional nation of Paternia. It features independent suspension for better off-road performance. Further lore can be found in the predecessor.

The container is externally dimensionally accurate to ISO 668 containers, and may be freely used as a reference model.
