Well I broke out the nickles. Shop scale said 49.997g for 10 nickels...postal scale said 50g. I'm saying my scales are spot on.

So I just weighed my 17.5 B4.2 and it's light...like way light. I'm at 1460g with the body. That's with the centering kit, an AVID shelf for the ESC and with the body this time. I have 7g weights in the rear triangle and the FT ballast, does it make sense that I need to add an additional 40g just to get to the minimum?
