|  TU-BERG (tuber-berg)
I finally finished building! Then i test ran, tore apart again, redid certain suspension items, painted, and then took a few pictures of it in action. I based it on a Campell buggy and tried to keep it light. It does meet the comp rules but I haven't tried my luck locally yet in competition...maybe when the next season starts! Here is what it has: 60t matrix motors (I like to crawl. I am that guy that always used a big block in a Jeep instead of gearing. What can I say, I like the torque!) Sidewinder ecs 11.1 2100 Lipo battery TQ3 radio and 4 channel recaiver Berg axles both clocked with axial stubs HSR5980 servo Steering linkage is not done...BTA to come! Also waiting on the rear steer lock-outs to come in. Front & rear dig hs55 & radio shack switches. Medium HB Rovers with 12oz weight front & 8oz rear (memory foam and side foam inserts to keep tire structure) Custom made beadlocks...and more! Sorry for the lack of build pictures, I melted the pictures of the build by accidentally leaving my camera outside in the Arizona heat. When I remembered, I found the camera bent in a funny angle and the card was dead. GO FIGURE!!! The frame: 3/8" brake line with brackets and dig plate  the guts:   I went camping and took some action shots. Fell off...but saved it!   climbs well!   my backyard rocks...    two quicky video's. I am working on taking some more. [  just messing with the dig. The end was fun...almost took out the camera!  |

I like it but it looks like your suspension doesn't cycle much. Is that on purpose or is it binding or something? Good tubework. |

Now this is a rig I REALLY like!!! That is probably the ULTIMATE scale looking comp rig (I think?) I have seen!!! I may have missed it, but what is the wheelbase on this? IF YOU SELL IT, I CALL IT!!!  |
