Also remember that the chassis was designed for NiMHs (actually NiCads its the old!). If you are running lipos that 2 packs of weights isn't much at all. That will just take you to the weight of NiMH no more since Lipos are really light. I put three whole strips of weight in my B4 - two of them lining the bottom of the battery tray just to compensate for the difference in weight to NiMHs. Only the third strip is actually used for balancing the car.

But yes, most important of all is throttle control. Just ease in the throttle and it won't wheelie. Once upon a time cars didn't have slipper clutches or punch settings on ESC's. Your only traction control was your left thumb!
