Although this is offtopic, I'll comment on this anyway...
The motor (the heaviest of the electrics apart from the batteries) hangs out quite a bit on the DB01/DB01R, so just having them (lipo and the rest of the electrics) weigh the same does not mean the car is balanced out.
If I remember correctly, the car on the video I posted has around 290g lipo + 60g additional weight on the battery side to balance the car left/right.
