Just finished kitting mine all out and it weighs in at 1329g with GM motor, Tekin RS Pro, Ko Propo PDS-2367 and IP 5600mah 50C lipo. This is a serious improvement on my Moorespeed Cyclone which was about 30g overweight. I've checked the balance and it seems that actually the battery side has a greater moment around the centreline so I might have to add some masses behind the motor to balance it out.
This is with the kit totally as standard apart from the pistons which I've changed for the 3 hole items. I imagine that further significant weight savings could be made by replacing the steel turnbuckles and screws with titanium versions and replacing the spool with a Litemodz version.
