Default rb5 lipo

Hi there,i race the rb5 with a trakpower 3200 20c lipo and it's more than enough with a 6.5/7.5 motor,after 5 mins race it still only recharges 1500 capacity,the only problem is you need to add around 100 grams of weight
to make it brca legal,i use a 1mm thick solid brass plate weight the same size as the lipo with no problem.Have tried larger capacity lipo's but not really much faster just need less weight and 3200 are cheaper than 5400.Hope this helps on your choice.
