Here are pictures of how i do it .....the trinity motor is 173 grams ..the lipo is 305 grams divided by 3 equals 101 grams so 173 minus 101 is 72 grams of tungsten positioned on the battery directly across on the battery. The speedo cap and rec are 95 so preety much a wash.The servo saver is 5g plus transponder is 6 g and servo is 44 g.So i added 46 grams of weight to the servo and the car comes in at 1505.

It's the Last TC I raced, Although the Last time I raced I beat a Losi Team driver when the Jrx-s had came out 
I got a ( Wow, I didn't know you got that fast Josh) we use to run off road years before and he always smoked me haha.... I always keep my cars much longer than others, I had a Pro 99 when the Mission was out, and was winning club races and mid level events.
Thanks guys, I found my book with set up sheets, I just have not raced since I was injured and I wanted to double check some of my thoughts to others.

Hey Sean / Adam,
Congrats on the Mi4, looks killer! Hope all is well. Heading back out and dont think I'll be back in time for Snowbirds. If I can make it I will and we'll have to have our usual rounds of beers.

hello folks , just recently got a schuy for a rubber car.....(thanks adam) 
been going through this forum trying to find a answer, planning to use trakpower 4900 and saw one of the pics and post saying it will "not" fit cause of batt terminals are positioned, so it must be angled which i do not like and i do not want to dremel the bulkhead to make it fit. So does anyone have try fitting using lipo with top bullet styles? I perfer not to use lipos with wires from the side... and lastly looking for a ppd or that style of weighting system from the bottom, anyone have done it?
thanx guys
