Do you want me to carbon date that for you?

We weighed a TP pack at 6.4, I think it was.

Remember you need to run a RX pack with 1S Lipos!!! another 1.8 oz!!!!!!! If a hard case for the RX pack is going to be the rule the 1S weight needs to go up some. It would be nice to be able to get close to the limit!

Our Cefx car with SMC rx pack and TP 1 cell is one ounce lite now, why would you want to increase the weight! Tire wear with this reduced weight is GREAT why mess that up?

I have a CRC BA2 and with booster I had to add 3/4 of an oz to meet 36 oz with a TP 40C pack with the 25C pack I am had to add 1.75 oz to make weight. This is even with a huge foam bumper with aluminum standoffs. With a 1.8 oz RX pack I would be .5 to 1 oz over with the 40C pack.

My 10.5 car, with wing, heavy paintjob, TP Rx pack, regulator, tekin esc, TP 40c, and nice fat tires was exactly at weight. No complaints here.

Actually, I'm closer to min weight now then when I was running 4cell 10.5/or 2c 17.5

My KSG gen II, I only had to add 1/2 oz to make weight (36oz) 13.5 smc 4000 1 cell no reciver pack with a gtb, so when I start using the larger packs I can take the weight off. :thumbsup:
