Frankly, the idea that I think is the best one I've seen so far is the conventional 2s battery mounted in the center. Some of the installs have been a little butch, but IMO it has real promise. It has the most weight closest to the center.
I'd do it but my choice of electronics won't fit without giving up the beam deflection from the plastic sides after you mill them out for clearance.
I would agree that if you put 5oz of weight on the bottom of the truck it probably would be better but how can you say the two shortys are different than running 2 1s inline is better? the shortys are infact centered on the truck and the balance is just about perferct. Where I see the difference is the weight is now spread equally over more of the chassis. I could be wrong... I'm not a rocket scientest
