42110 Land Rover Defender, v5 (with 4L motors and RC electronics)

This is an updated version (v5) of my Land Rover Defender 42110 with RC electronics and 4 L motors for driving. In this version, I significantly improved the strength of the chassis and the gearbox, and finally achieved what I had long been aiming for — the model is now durable and capable enough to play with outdoors. The body is built in the stock version.
