I've noticed a night and day difference in performance with a 4000 mah 4s pack verses a 5000 mah 4s pack. That is why my next zippy batteries will be a 40c 3000 mah for 10 min mains and 4000 for 15 min mains.

When you decrease weight you also have to change your springs and shock oil, btw. Were not talking about a few ounces of weight. Too many stock conversions are way overweight, half to a full pound over (7.5 to 8lb total).


Check out my custom converted 8ight:
Sub 7lb, lowest CG of any 1/8 buggy
