One of the biggest drawbacks to paper models...
Any moving parts outside of a simple hinge (i.e. flaps) are pretty much impossible to implement because of how easily paper fractures under stress.
No doubt this would have worked on a plastic model but there's far too much to risk in a paper medium for an even slightly complex mechanism like this to be practical.
