I think I tend to agree. I had a low profile servo in my TLR 22 3.0 and the thing would push at the end of straights or if i hit a small bump it was def too light in the front.

However, I'm new to the XB2, so I didn't want to go TOO front heavy being that I have the lay down trans etc.

But I think having the 25g weight under the battery will at least bring me back to the same weight bias as a low pro servo, or potentially even a little more rear biased. So I'm hoping I can get away with the Hitec 9360 servo and just run the weight if I need on clay and no weight on carpet.
