3lbs????????? I have a tough time believing that. I have a Bulu 3 that I just finished up and tossed on the scale. I built this to be as light as possible and with a 6 cell pack and 4oz. wheel weight and its right at 4lbs 5 oz. I wish those whose rigs are that light will shed some light on their miracle weight loss program.

ya kinda heavy but it's not using tlt axles. I am using radio shack diffs(housings and internals) arms locked out, with hpi MT2 axles and outers. Not exactly normal parts, hell I'm surprized it works.
I will shed some weight off it when I take some material off the chassis and the aluminum arms, but I'd be surprized if I ended up removing even a 1/2 pound of dieting.
I will have a build thread when I get a star.
