Does anyone know offhand if the Warp as currently supplied includes the part for forward mounting of the canopy or is it an optional part and is the canopy pre-drilled at one location or the other as standard?

Tkys.

I recently bought a new canopy, it doesn't come with any hardware, there is a mark on the canopy for the rear holes(canopy forward) and the front ones are already drilled, it didn't come with grommets either,
I needed the canopy as far forward as it would go so I drilled the rear most holes , then cut small circles in electrical tape and covered the forward holes, the canopy fit is very good. hope this helps

The current version Warp kits come with updated lower canopy mount that allows the 2 different mounting positions.

Thanks - still not sure if I'm going to need to be moving the canopy - it seems stock on 1350 batteries was scarce so I went ahead and bought 1800s from Revolectrix.

Based on searching the battery "sticky" I guess I'm going to be the test guy for Revo 1800 COG.

Moving the canopy forward provides both more room and better CG (just moving the canopy forward without moving the battery forward, moves the CG forward).
