Alex - hate to burst your bubble, but the worst of the damage was dished out by NST (bent bulkhead) and TS3 (almost everything else :P). Practically everything C3 did was fixed overnight. Weight isn't really an issue, it was 350g under at the champs, and the new shell will be lighter by 200g give or take. Weight can still be taken out as well, current battery pack is way overkill, does five full fights before dying. A smaller one can be brought in if weight becomes a concern.
Haz, I haven't touched the drive and won't unless money for Astros materialises; they're on the table as extreme long term plans. Just not so happy with Flows lack of pushing power due to the low gear ratio, but also don't want to give up the speed :P
