The weight debate

[gorillamaxx]

I thought I would post this information here on the forum. I’ve notice that there are many misconceptions about weight. It’s a bit frustrating to read inaccurate information, usually posted by people that don’t even own our parts. So if you guys notice any posts on the net inquiring about chassis weight, please point them this way. Also, if any of you own competitors kits please add the details here.

In comparing our G2 chassis to the stock parts we included the following components:

Stock weight includes the chassis, 2 braces and 2 battery hold-downs.
G2 weight includes the servo plate, the rear plate, the lower plate, 2 braces, 2 battery straps and the bell crank spacers (since these are built into the stock chassis we had to include them)

Stock = 230 grams (8.11 oz)
G2 Aluminum = 230 grams (8.11 oz)
G2 Carbon Fiber = 190 grams (6.70 oz)
