johnny.. when i spoke with steve today while looking at the R3.. he said the R3 only comes with a 2.5mm lower chassis.. so the xenon stage 2 is thicker. BUT steve also said the chassis on the R3 is woven in a different fashion. so im assuming that makes up for the .5mm difference?

also the R3 has the batteries moved forward even more than a Xenon Stage 2 bottom chassis. about .5mm more from a visual estimate.
The R3 chassis is propably using a much better weave, I'm guessing it has cross weaves as well as the normal side/side, front/back.
