RC Crawler Bot Powered by a Cordless Screwdriver

Raphael Lang of Stuttgart, Germany, built this cool robot from junk:

A DIY crawler robot powered with a battery screw driver and with all-terrain legs or better called segment paddles. It’s made totally from the scratch. The leggs are flexible and grip instantly on different kinds of surfaces. The main energy unit is a powertool powered by lithuim battery. The crawler robot is controllable by a RC control.
