So it can be a lot lighter if that's what your looking for.

I'm running the 2200kv too. I'd like too have mech brakes in my ride but I don't know if I should go for Mugen tekno or losi tekno. I bought my for with a load of hop ups and spares for a little money. But I have always been a fan of the Mugen mbx6 and it looks sick with the Tekno kit. But my wallet doesn't like switching to an other car
I how do you like the tekno chasis? It seems a lot stiffer than the stock one. Especially with the extra brace. I guess that clutch is really good for smoothing the 2200kv out.
I'll put mine on the scale on the scale too see what it weight without body and tires.

Mini is RTR without tires, lipo and body 5lbs 11oz. Is a bit lighter but no clutch, servo etc.
