Default Re: the start of the build

So where to start… axles seemed a good a choice as any..

All 3 axles assembled in no time at all, every thing fits together so nice, the tolerances are perfect, in fact sometimes I’m not so sure the two parts are meant to go together they are that tight…I still need to rip them back apart and solder the cables to the motors. The motors and gearbox slip up the inside of each axle and the drive spindle is supported by two huge fully sealed bearings, the axles even have O rings where they join together, this seals them completely keeping all the dust and water out


The hub fitted to the axle






If I had my way, I would work through the night and get it finished, but I don’t!

So that’s it for tonight, happy so far, every fits together perfectly.
