Build the Berg

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

Yesterday the Berg axles came back, I spent some time in the dining room table putting it together .. looks stunning

I am replacing the chassis with a ZERO Berg chassis and the shocks with probably the Losi shocks (the default ones are too big for the Zero chassis) .. but as default .. it looks great, part of me wonders if I need to change it at all :)

For a while now I have been wanting to get into Rock Crawling.

About a month ago I actually bought an Axial AX10 and a Goat Brushless System, but before I had a chance to even open the box, I changed my mind when I saw the Enroute Berg 2.2

So I placed an order for on from Japan, the idea is, if it’s good, I might start importing them in and sell @ RC NUT

Anyway, the Berg arrived today, and after a stung of £80 by customs, I got to admire how beautiful and well machined it is .. for about 30 minutes .. I then had to re-package it and send it to a buggy of mine for some milling (doing some alterations to it to make it even better at competition level)

So I was left with no Berg once again, except for the wheels .. I decided (after some forum digging and advise) to go with some M3 Badlands, after mounting one, I cant believe how great they look .. it’s Bling, Bling to the max, but well worthy it.

Now I cant wait for the Berg to come back so I can finish the build :)

I also got 2 Spark 1000 Brushless Motors and 2 ESC’s .. I will be setting those with the Nomadio sometime this weekend.
