Oh man, all that white delrin! I need to stay out of the berg section, all the cool kids are switching over, I can't abandon my XR.... Nice work Erik, this is gonna be an impressive build. |

I am not sure if the white will be a one off/limited version or not. I think I am one of the only guys who like white and it is much harder to machine and keep looking clean. I do think it looks better after having to deal with some abuse though. Most likely the majority will be black. I cant remember where I read it but I have heard there is a strength difference from white to black? I am also curios what the strength difference would be between the colors in the sun. When I first got my temp gun to monitor my motor temps on my Losi I checked the temperature of everything around me in mid summer. Anything with any color added to it was 160*+ anything white based was 120*. Quote:

I edited the post on page 1 with the bushings but wanted to add it here too in case it was missed. Important note: The bushings are made to work with the stock stainless steel screws. If you use a different brand stainless screw, aluminum screw, steel screw etc,. you may find some will not even fit or be sloppy. After measuring many brands and different materials I have found the screws to vary greatly. I have not found a steel screw or aluminum screw that will fit. |

looking awesome there Eric. Having a few bits from you already, know that anything you put out into the market will have great build quality and will be duable. Looking forward to seeing the link/shock mounts. The delrin rear tubes I have on my Bully are great, they've stood up well to the beating they've taken the thought of some good delrin rears for the Berg to ooooooooooh yeah  Defo a subscribed thread |

White is a better choice IMO due to unchanged material properties. Quote:
Look forward to the rest of the build, and hope we see some cool new parts available due to this build! | ||

Wow! I am glad to see you coming to the dark side!!! I have no doubt that this will be one sick rig!!! I am interested to see how the delrin tubes work. I had quite a few people ask me for them last year when we were working on bully tubes. You going to have it done for the next comp?? |
