Berg 2.2 v3 chassis fit t1e?

[Elektrpwr]

Hey guys I picked up a used t1e this morning for $400 Canadian. Wondering if the v3 chassis will work with the berg t1e axles? If not I can rig up a similar chassis on my own since I own a machine shop. I have access to a used v3 chassis online but only if it works I'll buy. Thank you,

Pictures please....

T1E is a group/guy that makes the Chassis.
Berg is the company that makes the axles...... You'll be able to mount any chassis you want to those axles.

Thank you Curcal. Good info. I'll post pics as soon as I get time..

Hello folks, pictures will arrive on the weekend. Electric wiring help now. I've seen a few diagrams thru the archives here but I a mechanical guy not electric. If someone can explain in caveman terms the way I need to set up this rig. I have the following electronics. Obviously I would like the motors to run independent and is it possible to mix the motors as well?
2 motor.
2 speed controller.
No receiver and no radio.
I need to buy a 3 channel radio I assume?
Once I purchase my radio then I assume the one receiver module will be enough to hook up the 2 motors 2 speed controllers 1 servo and maybe add a second servo later if need.. Hope all this info is needed.
I also noticed thru the archives mention a bec??
All this electric stuff gets me nervous.. Thanks for any help.

You can run a few different radios in order to achieve the mixing that you are looking for. My personal choice is a Futaba 4PL. Reasonably priced, easy to set-up and easy to use. FYI - Its is a 4-channel radio. You could also run a Futaba 4PX (spendy), Airtronics MT-4 (quite popular with the East coast crew), or even a good old stick radio.

You will definitely need to run a BEC or your servo will "brown" out (i.e. - it wont have the turning power you want).

What motors do you have?

What speed controls do you have?

Thank you I meant 4 channel.
2 brood 35t- working motors, just not sure if these motors are good quality or if I need to upgrade to better?
2 tekin fxr speed controllers.

Now where exactly does this bec fit into the pic? And everything else,lol, ?
Cheers.

Use the T1E chassis. I'm sure it will be MUCH better than a Berg V3 chassis.
