Looking at your numbers I would say that the HP plates are as heavy on the bottom and lighter for the top ones. This seems good to me.

Pinolelst

Yep.I'm sorta stuck right now assembly wise waiting for a forgotten part but the chassis feels lighter and more rigid in my hands.Now if my motor would just get here ........

2DMaxLST!!

You will need two of these.



Here's the weight of my battery.

Sgt. Canada

you're only running one battery? That's 1200 mah, right?

2DMaxLST!!

Yes, that is my only battery and it is 1200mah. I am considering getting one more of them to use for the mains only.

Some more weights...


All HP chassis parts...



All Stock parts...


Here is why I had to expidite the installation of these parts...

Pinolelst

Ok....... that bothers me that you know the exact part that I'm waiting on [X(]


Peace [8D]

2DMaxLST!!

I was making a guess, but I know it was not clear for me that I needed to order two of those and I could see that happening to someone!!

Pinolelst

They were a little pricey for a single piece.[:@]

Here's a link to a nice picture of the topside of a LST with the HP chassis conversion.
