Limestone Berg Refurbished

[gooserools]

Another Berg build.
To make a long story short.
I bought an Berg v3, an bult it with Reptile chassis. vas a bit disappointed with the construction and weight. Found Dravpnir's thread and was amazed.
I decided i rebuild the whole thing.
Started to cad up the axles. Printed some gearboxes. bought axle tubes and gears from Dravpnir. Ordered som Dlux axles and hubs.
Problem i had with the printed gearboxes was that bad tolerances on the prints. gearbox covers was weak. after many hours of work. i was so mad at them so i actually almost bought new axles.

But i thought ill give them one more shot. So i got some G10 gearbox covers for my gearboxes, and it feels so much better. So ill give them a test this weekend we have 6 hours of crawling ahead of us, if it breaks the some vendor i the states can have some money from me. I don't have so many pictures of the build process but posting some the current state.

Got some more parts from dlux. Really liking the weight in the front. Just got to mount rear weights. Car feels really smooth. Was out practicing yesterday and my servo gave up. But all my homemade stuff is keeping up.
