i think his full ones does weigh a few ounces less than stock. im like the second frame he did so mine is a tad heavier but maybe 2 lbs at most? i feel the weight is more distributed with my full frame

But now that you bring up the whole r6r and r6s issue...I think it is a r6r which I know are not too good for stunting...but I will have to make it work. I hope I can get a cage and the rest of the parts for it still.

if the mounting is the same to the earlier models of r6 you should be able to get you a cage. billie of course or your local welder could mock up something.
