Just so that everybody is on the same page....concerning weight...here is what a few items actually weigh.

Batteries are assembled.
2000 - 12.5 oz
2200 - 12.8 oz
2400 - 13.3 oz
3000 pan blue wrapper - 12.6 oz
3000 HV - 13.2
GP3300 - 13.8

So, there is 1.3 oz difference from lightest to heaviest.

ESC - LRP SR with wires - 2.1 oz
Futaba 9402 servo - 1.9 oz
Futaba FM 3 channel (no crystal) - 0.6 oz
P2K motor - 5.7 oz
D4 - 6.4 oz
Reedy Ti - 6.2 oz
Orion Chrome - 6.2 oz

If you are running stock...LRP SR, 9402, Futaba FM receiver, and P2K - (and this is IF the p2k was offset to one side of the chassis to affect weight on that side of the chassis).... 2.1 + 1.9 + 0.6 + 5.7 = 10.3 oz.....and running 2000 cells...you need to add 2.2 oz of weight to balance the chassis.

Food for thought!
