ONE YEAR LATER:

Whoops has been a while. Lots of progress has been made since my last post.

Starting off here is the up to date CAD of CSB 2.1, I revised the back so the back of the bulkheads are not sticking out so far. This has resulted in a Biteforce style back end. In the end I went with the brushless motor and BaneBots gearbox for the drive for simplicity of mounting it.

I've been ordering parts and materials since April and was slowly making the first parts of CSB 2.1
Starting of with the 20mm HDPE bulkheads. Progress was slow due to my time being dedicated to my Beetleweight CSB: Echo which was being readied for the Chatham Challenge Belt.

While working on the HDPE parts the Aluminium and Hardox panels arrived from EMSEA. I've opted to use Aluminium in place of hardox in select areas to keep the weight down. The 11:1 Banebots P61 gearboxes were modified so they could be face mounted with the Aluminium plates.

This was where I got up to before attending Chatham and moving in with my boyfriend a few weeks later.
