Mine came out at nearly 24lb's with a Jetcat 120, Behotec retracts, x2 Sanyo 2400 Nicads and a 3700 NIMH for ECU. I used these batteries instead of lipo's, as I knew I would have to add nose weight too compensate the engine. As a result of this, I did not add any nose weight. I would'nt worry, with that engine, a couple of pounds wont make much difference. It sounds a perfect set up too me.
