Get a 5000mah 40c battery.. About 300 grams worth of batteries.
Make slugs to fit the battery holes in the chassis.
Glue them to the battery. They will also help keep the pack in place.
I highly recomend brass. But tungsten is heavier. You are going to need approximately 110 grams to get it up to weight depending on what electronics you are using. Try to keep the bottom of the chassis smooth and the weight low.
