Running MT bowties instead of the 40 series should help a lot with your weight. Lower capacity, higher C batteries would also trim a lot of fat.
|
Mine CF is light as all Hxxx! I love it!
|
I envy all you light weights... :)
|
Well, having a bigger motor makes the weight difference. You also need to beef things up too. The motor can push its weight though, or should be able to. Just remember speed + weight + crash = MEGA DAMAGE!
|
mine used to weigh around 13lbs....now it will way less then that now that I'm switching to a gmaxx chassis...and a few other things as well....should lighten it up ...
|
There are many ways to lighten up a MT, but at what cost. You still want it durable, just a key thing to remember.
|
Remember, the Revo's are heavier than a Maxx. There alot beefier than a Maxx and that is why they weight 10lbs. on average.
|
Yup, a tad heavier. If you take a stock emaxx, a stock revo, you can tell the difference, but it's really not that much in weight.
|
my maxx is about 10 lb's RTR with 16 cells.

Well revo don't make stock Electric's. but you know what i mean! LOL. A revo with batts is beefy though! i agree with ya Squee, jsut not that significant in weight difference though between the stock emaxx and e revo..but the revo would be heavier. Now Nitro on the other hand, is usually lighter in any model than electric models....but BL still kicks their arss'
|
I'm gonna go to work right now and weigh all my parts piece by piece.... I should be back soon... :) but the stock tires and beadlocks feels really really heavy....
|
Emaxx RTR 12 cells: 11lbs 6oz
Savage RTR 12 cells: 12lbs 8oz What beadlocks do you have? I had some of the Proline 40 series ones, and them paired with bowties weighed around 370g per wheel I think. Recently I've been running Savage tyres on RPM rims, which is a lighter combo, by around 100g or so I'm fairly sure. |
Brushless LST with 7XL, and 9920. 12 IB 3800, 6.652Kg(14.66Lbs)... I have no mods on this LST absolutely nothing.. it's so heavy still.. all plastic parts too
|
LST's are naturally heavy.
