Small-format honeycomb weights for chassis balance

Arrowmax AM-950042 Honeycomb Weight Plate kit includes ten compact plates at 1.8g each, made for subtle mass tuning on scale RC models. These plates are intended as add-on weights to help correct bias and improve handling symmetry without permanent chassis alteration.

Recommended mounting spots include under the body shell, on the upper or lower chassis decks, or near suspension mounting points where clearance allows. Even modest relocations can change corner entry and mid corner balance; make one change at a time and run repeatable tests to evaluate performance. The honeycomb pattern reduces glue contact and can sit neat in shallow recesses.

Attaching the plates is a simple process: verify clearance, then secure using double-sided tape, small adhesive dots, or a method that suits your setup. Keep them away from drive components, antenna leads, and battery terminals to avoid interference. Always trial fit prior to final installation.

A straightforward, low-profile choice for making small incremental mass adjustments during setup and tuning sessions on scale RC vehicles.

Run controlled laps on the same surface, change one plate location at a time, and note differences in understeer, oversteer, or rotation to find the best layout.
They can be used across buggies and trucks where small weight tweaks help; evaluate clearance and avoid placing them where suspension travel or drivetrain parts could touch.
The reduced contact area can make tack adhesives easier to use and may allow bedding into shallow recesses, but choose the adhesive that matches your removal needs.
Stacking is possible but alters the centre of mass more dramatically; use a scale to measure combined mass and ensure stacked height does not impede other components.
These are for fine adjustments. For larger balance changes you may need purpose-built ballast or heavier weights designed for your chassis.
