It would weigh 9% more yes but it's a pig to machine and would mean it would be about £15 for the under lipo weight alone I will make brass but it would be about £25 for the both

I'm actually not interested in under lipo weights, but rather something around the gearbox, something that is aft of the lipos. Is there a plan to do something around there?

Steel T piece? or wishbone mounting blocks?

Lipo weights look good mate

[Battle_axe]

Yeah pivot blocks maybe not the t as it's a complex pattern really and it would probably weigh close to 120g

What material for the t plate though?

[mattybucks]

Depends of the amount of weight you would want to achieve. You also want the weight as low as possible.

As above really!

Also the pivot blocks to accept the plastic pivot ball inserts as in these:

Is it just me who wouldn't want anymore weight on the back?

t-Piece would be a tricky thing to so as it has the gearbox mounted to it. Was easier on the rat as the gearbox wasn't bolted to it. I would like to see seperate block on the front though so we can change the anitsquat.

I am pretty sure the block you would need to make for the front is the same as the original rat one (I Measured this up before but can't remmeber which one I found was match now.)

Back to the weights, is it 14 pound per pair or 14 pounds each? and how do I order?

I've not got one so I don't know if this is possible, but when I had a Mardave cobra I used to put a couple of washers between the front gearbox and the chassis to raise it a bit, or give a greater degree of anti-squat.
