What is it?

Haven't seen one of those in many years, looks like that's a spinoff of the one's we used to have.  Here's a link for you.

That link looks exactly like what I've got here.  The mechanics look like it could rotate the tracks "up on it's toes" in addition to the forward tank-like track motion.  The problem is the transmitter is missing.

Do you know how many channels the radio system was?  To me it looks like this: (remember I never saw one and don't have a transmitter I'm just looking at the electronics and mechanics inside.)

- Forward (both tracks)
- Turn left (right track faster than left tracks)
- Turn right (left tracks faster than right tracks)
- Rotate track arms.

So what I don't know is:

- Could the track arms rotate independently/individually?
- Did the track arms rotate as pairs? (example: both front together or front plus rear pairs together?)
- Could the track arms rotate 360 degrees or only partly and then need to rotate backwards?
