We have been adding 75-100g under saddle LiPos in testing (our Saddles weighed 300g) so off course, with the small lipo we'll be looking to add further ballast as the grip comes up.
We were running at approx 1700 - 1750g in testing and given that the car can be built to run at 1500g with no weight and the stubby Lipo, that probably gives you an indication of how much we've been adding in total.
Hope this helps |
Thanks for the quick reply. I will look for some saddle packs for now and I can always buy the 96mm down the road if I need it for other tracks or surfaces. I do plan to build my car mid motor. I checked on the status of the weight kit from TLR and Horizon USA is saying availabilty in July!
I can add regular square lead weights on the transmission. Do you have a picture of where they are installed? I also have a source for some thin brass weights for the battery tray an will look for something in the range you provided. The track I'm starting on is on the smaller side so it should be more manageable to get the car to handle than if the track was big and open.
