I don't know what mine weigh offhand, but after making a few mods they are not that heavy anymore. The stock chassis weighs a ton!

It's a good question, I'll have to weigh mine out and see where they come out.

My rig is up at 3kg/6.8lbs with a 5800 battery pack and no body. I imagine it will get heavier as I upgrade the hubs and steering parts.

How are those shackles on the bumpers? Are they purely cosmetic or do they offer some function?

3700 grams seems heavy to me. My FJ40 comes in just under 7 lbs (maybe 3100 grams or so) with a large 3s pack, 2 servos, heavy steel wheels, and 2 oz (56ish grams) added to each front wheel.

Was that with helium balloons attached? 3.5 lbs seems way too light.

What body is that (in the first photo)? Looks like a Pro-Line body from the stickers.
