Hi, no, we still need to install another motor inside the bridge that makes it open. There will be a plug at each end of the bridge to power that motor from the tank. This mechanism also allows the bridge to fold little by little.

Outstanding work! And the fact that this is 1/87th makes it all the more impressive. Would love to see your work in 35th (huge to you - tiny to most of us).
