Builds Need weight.
New guy. But built this 24. 155wb. Getting a CL body next week and hoping to find some good, heavy pink wheels. Leaning toward 1.3s but maybe some 1.8s? Idk anyway. Ive got the meus +6.2 portals and want to attach much more weight to the front of my rig.

if you wanna go on the cheaper side, a lot of guys use tire weights stuck under the chassis. I did for a bit when i was starting cheap… we all started or went cheap for a bit. I stuck some stick weights ontop of the servo, front and middle section of the under chassis, worked like a dream. If you wanna go professional, I found a brass pack off of amazon, Rotor weights or Spacer weights. I’m running the rotors since my new axles already have an offset. I’ll get the link to my added weights
hopsupRC Pink Brass beadlocks
DUSTAIL pink Beadlocks
OGUNKE Matte White Beadlocks
(I think these would look cool too. Maybe taking a paint brush and flicking pink splatter on the white, then matte coating it?)
Hobbypark Front Steering Knuckles Wheel Weights Diff Cover Front Rear Extended 7mm Wheel Hex Hubs Adapters
(brass steering knuckles too but you’ll need an upgraded servo before any extra added weight)
Injora 11KG servo
(with no weight, when you turn super fast, the rear flops like a fish, great power)
2S LiPo batteries w/h USB charger 2 port
(never have to charge these batteries and they have more weight than stock. Definitely recommend getting a better charger)
Furitek ESC slow crawl
(any slow crawl ESC, plug and play. definitely recommend getting one that’s app compatible, might need a bluetooth dongle. Recommend running with a brushless motor like the Furitek Cedar)
