Have you weighed it yet to see how much it comes in at?

I weighed the beast and I am more than surprised at the weight. Full size 1/8th scale monster...less than 11lbs without the batteries. Beast!!!!

Thats not much more than my X1 truggy. My X1 comes in at 10lbs without batteries. With two 3S 5000mah batteries it weighs 10.8lbs.

Looking at a stock model, the carbon conversion cut a pound or 2 off its weight.

Over-sized and overpowered, there is nothing bad I can say about the Housewitzser but no more wheelies ever...with full packs this thing pops skyward with ease. The cure...decrease the power, not going to happen so the next best option....a wheelie bar. And while I am sure there are some nice viable options to be purchased, I prescribe to the simple philosophy..."why buy when you can build." So I did. Taking a few parts from a parts car, a little dremel and some scrap carbon fiber plate...a few hours later a fully functioning, great looking wheelie bar.
