So I have a cyclone TC, and I was wondering how much weight I need to add to offset my lightweight lipo. I am using a turnigy 5200MAH 2s Hardcase (if that helps)
hobbyking says Pack Weight: 333g

You need to buy some balance buttons or make your own balance stand.
There is no exact weight it all depends on your electronics to get the car the car balanced out.

It's roar legal for the nats. The did some improvements on the type B and it's suppose to be like the ltcr with better down force/stability. We'll see how it handles on Sunday.

It's the Subaru Impreza Type A that was originally seen at the Japanese Nats a while back. It's undergone some improvements to get the overall balance a little better. Before it had TONS of steering, but wasn't very stable. Now it's stable and has steering too. I really like this body

It's neon pink. The kids took the camera to camp this week and the settings are all screwed up. I bet my camera phone would be better....
