That's seriously impressive, I tried to do a similar thing but from the other side here, taking a standard 1/8th buggy and doing all I could to lighten it but while I shaved a couple of pounds off, it only came down to 6lb 7.4oz,

after seeing yours with its 3mm turnbuckles and anorexic arms I'm thinking I started from the wrong place, although it has given me ideas on how I can improve mine, thinner turnbuckles on the steering and rear upper links would be easy enough. What servo are you using? I have a 66g/2.3oz Ace 1015 standard size servo in there at the moment, I have a Hitec 5245MG digital mini servo at 32g/1.2oz that I could put in but I am unsure as to whether a mini servo is up to the job. After that it's either start whittling on my arms or switch to a 1/10th set up, I have a 1509/1.5d 4500kv and 2s 5000mAh packs I could use but I think with 2s its going to pull huge amps to get good speed and I wouldn't be able to downgrade to my from a MMM to the MM.
