|  Finally made the switch Here is my Berg......I couldn't resist it anymore....Had to give it a try The Gear: EnRoute Berg Axles Kamikazie Zero chassis Dual Integy 55T Lathe Motors Hobbico CS170 Steering Serv0 Axial Bent Rear Lower Links Axial Straight Front Lower Links Traxxas 5319X Rear Upper Links Berg Bumper Post Front Upper Links GPM Racing 100mm shocks MTHead Rear Lockouts Mamba Max ESC Castle Creations BEC El Cheapo Dig Servo Dual Rat Shack Roller Switches Multiplex Profi Car 403 Radio Mayhem Engineering Berg Offset 7 Wheels with black hardware (had to make mine different) Panther Cougar Wheels Panther Memory Foam sandwiched b/w 1/4" ProLine Normal Foams Servo City 1500 maH 3S LiPo Losi Grappler Body I am sitting at: 3 3/8" center ground clearance 10 1/4" track width 6lbs 6ozs. I am running a 13T Robinson pinion up front and 12T Robinson pinion in the rear. I am liking this rig a lot. I believe Clod stall is a good breakage saver. If you just need an axle to pull that has stalled, just disconnect to pulling axle and you'll transfer all power to the needed axle. Elector dig is so much more predictable.

That's a great crawler, The grappler bodies are my favorite, so much so that I have three comming from the US as they aren't available here. The side on pic on the plank looks very nice I think i'll end up getting a zero chassis and making a switch dig for mine. Do you have yours set up for front dig - 4wd - rear dig or 4wd - free wheel rear - front dig? Congrats man, anyone would be stoked to have a 2.2 like that. BERGS RULE!! |

 ......it's setup for Front Dig (shorting rear motors out to lock) - 4wd - Rear Dig . It really doesn't fully lock...prolly didn't do something right. I liked free wheel with my R2D. This feels like a good middle ground b/w locked and free wheel. It still will roll some on climbs instead of dragging the rear still allowing the truck to move forward. It'll still turn on dime like being fully locked.
