so far i have put a hs81mg in my m18 and also switched to AAA batteries. they work just as good as 2/3a. n e ways are there any other things that i can do to reduce weight?

u can dremel out some holes in the chassis under the motor, it will save weight and help to cool the motor at the same time. other than that none that i can think of. but dont be too worried of saving weight on your car. its already light enough as it is and if you go too far you can make the car brittle. instead just bolt on the fastest motor you can find and run it with as many cells as your track will allow

The simplest light weighted driveshaft is going to a kite-shop and get a 4mm holow carbon pipe.
