I am also having the same problem with my 12R5. Using digital scale under each individual tire, my right rear is off by 40 grams when running brushless. I am thinking of shifting the ESC etc to counter-balance the weight. Is it recommended to balance the rear pod weight when using BL or just balance the chassis left-right weight without considering the rear pod?
Another thing, any recommendation in term of front-to-rear weight bias (40/60 or 30/70 or...)? What are you guys seeing when using 1s Lipo with BL?
