Lighter makes sense to be better for speed etc but if the servo, Rx, ESC and motor etc weight more than the lighter battery wouldn't you want it be better for jumping if it was as balanced as possible?
On another note, what you do you guys think it would take to be able to do a 20min main, battery wise?
IMO the difference is not huge. An ounce difference on the corners is never going to be felt on a 7+ pound buggy. That's less than 1% of total weight. The advantage of running a lighter battery as long as you can make run time is a much larger difference.
To make 20 minutes on 4s with 1900 tekin you will need 7000 mah or larger battery. On 6s with 1400 tekin you will need a 5000 mah battery.
