The servo problem is why I didn't put the batteries up front. I think rcconstructor in germany did his like that in his custom kits, with the servo in the rear. I didn't want to mess with it like that.

That's part of the reason why I did it the other way... put the diff up front and batteries in the rear. It make a really clean layout and it's balanced well.

Remember the battery weight is spread out a lot more than the motor and diff. So actually the weight balance is forward more with the batteries in the rear, I think. ESPECIALLY if you are running a 4s 4000mah pack.
