Not in the way you infer it.
Weight is a penalty for ADDING features to an airframe that was not designed with them.
A healthy NEW design incorporating those feature from the start should have adequate performance built in from the beginning.

Unless you are talking about flying EMS in the USA in a Bell 206L-1.
