Arrma Granite 4x4 3S BLX V3: bit.ly/2E4epcc
I got to take the new V3 Arrma Granite 4x4 3S BLX for its first bash. How did it perform, what broke?
#Arrma #Granite4x43SBLX
It took some pretty hard hits 👍 Loved the triple!
I know those "random guys" too. I'm considering getting a shirt that says "Don't talk to the driver". Your vids are a great decision helper. I'm in the market for something in that class and you've tested everything worth looking at. The range of trucks is keeping me a little uncertain though. So many nice trucks out there, each with different weaknesses and strengths. If a Fairy would snip her finger for me, I'd probably take the Hoss, but the best bargain seems to be either the Granite or the MT10. Have to look how well you can get ahold of spares here in Germany. Thanks for your reviews.
Love that red and white body!! 🔥
Just bought the same one it’s a lot better looking in person love the truck it’s a beast
Awesome review and epic bash session 👍 very detailed. I love the BMX track shots and jumps. I got mine today and can't wait to get it to the skatepark. 😘
I went to get a Big Rock and got the Granite instead. Gonna bash tomorrow. Great video Razor!
Love how you ignored that guy lol. I hope he took the hint!!
Some nice flips there. Had some bad landings it took as well.
Have they fixed the radio range in the newer trucks?????????
Just did first bash with mine flips so easy and takes a hell of a beating, first time in a long time I took a car out and didn’t break anything lmao.
I have all 4 new v3 models and the new servos are way better than the the v2 models . 60 wt shock oil seems to be the sweet spot for all of them lol .
Great overview and cool bashing
I'm surprised on the breakages. My V1 granite has been a tank and never broken anything with a lot of heavy bashing. Makes me wonder if the plastics are different on the v3 models like you hinted to on your unboxing. It does look like they have more preload spacers on shocks for this version.
Hobbico plastic was better for sure
thanks, yeah my V1 never broke anything. I think you're right on the preload spacers, looks like an extra skinny one on the front and the went to two mediums in the rear instead of one skinny one.
The original granite before horizon owned seemed be different plastic , my brcc was like glass compared, that said if they took some slop out , i coukdnt complain being on bmx track. I read some comments kids crazy lol 😆
Awesome video!! You've been putting out some great videos lately!! Is there going to be a video where you compare the Traxxas Hoss and the Arrma Granite 4x4? What do you think of the Traxxas Rustler 4x4? Keep it up!! 👍👊😉
Will definitely do a 3-way comparison -- Hoss, Granite, Rival MT10. I checked out your last Granite video, outstanding work!
@@RazorRC Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed! Your subscription is much appreciated. 👍
Hello! Thank you for your videos, they are great. I have a little request for you. I have the Granite 3S BLX V2 (blue and red version). I took it to a bike track for the first time today, similar to yours, and after 15 min it didn't want to go forward anymore. I opened the power module and realized that one bearing on the sleeper was completely destroyed and the other one totally stuck. It was so much pain to remove them and I realized that it was caused by the dirt. I saw your videos telling that every one must add tape to cover some holes around the power module. I do that every time but I think that the dirt is entering elsewhere as well. I replaced them with rubber sealed bearings that I bought thanks to your advises. Though, can you make a video to show us how you prepare your car and specificaly the power module before your bash sessions at the bike track please? Did you try Dusty Motors shrouds to prevent dirt from entering into the chassis? I may purchase one some day. Thank you, have a nice day.
I just clean out the power module every few battery packs.
where is that bike track? and im waiting on mine to arrive, im sooo exited
Come on razor , for whatever reason once while co hits mark with a special performer durability ect , they try to improve even sometimes with same parts but just never the same , it one those things you cough up to the rc gods 😉
Or horizon keeps using cheaper stuff lol 😆
In a video a few months ago, you put the granite at the top spot compared to the Rival, Stampede and Losi Mt. Do you still believe that to be the case with the new Granite. I have been considering the new Big Rock, which is basically a longer Granite. Still waiting on someone to do a full review on the v3 Big Rock, hint hint.
I'm really not sure which is the best right now. Been running all 3, they're all really good now. I probably won't buy a BRCC, but who knows... it should be more stable and easy to drive on land, with the Granite a little more unruly on ground but easier to do tricks in the air.
Hello never been first on a RUclips video love your videos! In my opinion your the best rc youtuber!
Wow, thanks!
Great review as always!
I remember your older video when you ran some pretty smooth laps on an indoor track with your old Granite (IIRC?), would be nice to see you try the same with this one.
maybe, but this thing needs a stronger servo saver and servo badly first
@@RazorRC so you would say the newer servo saver is actually more "floppy" than the older one?
Jocke Karlsson no, I don’t think it’s worse. Just my indoor track is carpet, so it’s super high traction and this saver would “give” too much
@@RazorRC oh, I'm sorry, I thought you ran on a clay track indoor.
@@zeno6111753 yeah, it was, but they decided to go to carpet late last year
Easy to break on that surface. I am getting reinforced towers. C&C my own.
Nice video and great truck, Just got one too!
Did you turn it up to 100% power on the controller? Was probably just bad traction in that dry dirt though, like you said.
Great video. Just curious, when you say the servo saver is a little weak, what is that based on? How can you tell when driving?
You'll turn the steering wheel in a corner, but the wheels won't be able to maintain being turned.
I just bought an arrma typhon 3s which was my second car after the 1/16 slash 4x4 do you think that was a good purchase and what do you think I should upgrade on it? Also great video I just subbed.
Hell yeah just get rpm arms , i thought about buying one bc its similar to the bigrock and i used all the parts on my granite they all pretty much compatible but buggy they used wider a arms
I absolutely love my 3s typhon. Its one of my favorite rcs. Upgrades I've done are 6s typhon aluminum shocks, 20t pinion, duratrax six pack buggy wheels, hot racing aluminum front uprights and 4s outcast wheelie bar. My buddy Phithyco turned me on to some proline badland replicas that are only 30$. They are nice white dish rims so look really good. (Also come in black) Just search 1/8 big blocks pre mounted 1/8 buggy wheels. They are really nice and pre glued. Have fun with it!!
Razor could you recommend a servo saver for these 3s trucks? I could never find one that I could replace the stock one
I used this one on my Kraton 4S, it should fit the Granite or any of the 3S cars too. You have to trim the rectangle into a triangle though bit.ly/3ggvnmo
Very nice amigo 😀👍
is this granite really good?, I'm confused to choose between granite or hobao hyper MT.
nice track,.
Still waiting for mine
I was about to preorder granite v3 but after this video I think I should rather start looking for something else. It looks like an arrma doesn't stand to its name anymore? Is kraton 4s any better after upgrading the A arms to RPM ones?
I love your reviews. I've seen plenty review videos already but when watching yours I feel like I'm listening to a good friend who wouldn't let me buy some crap.
What he's killing it for 300 , u ain't doing better lol
4sk is similar truck just lil longer and alot more expected from same product so in return coukd never be more durable , i dont think you be able to buy kraton 4s for a while and any quality differences they be passed down , personally I think horizon owning the quality went down a little in the plastics and stuff seemed like original granite was bullet proof like razor is saying , i bought brcc which exactkt same kraton 4s chassis and broke easily performed like crap
@@paulclancy2404 I've seen kraton 4s has been discontinued in UK market so there must be a clear reason for it. So what's the kraton 4s direct competitor then? I mean something same size, 3s/4s which is more durable but still handles great?
I'm still thinking about granite as it has RPM aftermarket parts available for it which is great, however it wheelies a bit too much for me liking.
@@Mike_Rakowski I love my granite , it does wheelie but you can gear littke higher 16t pinion , i have a 20t but too its much unless your conscious of heat ect , i thinking they discontinue bc v2 versions coming in November, i woukd order the brcc its same chassis as kraton 4s pretty much the same truck i own both and I only didn't like brcc better bc it was too narrow for the length
@@Mike_Rakowski the new brcc is a little wider than this granite, probably almost same as kraton 4s and cool looking 320 bucks here in us
Which do you think is better this or the hoss?
I just run a normal servo horn on my Sentons..Missing a rear shock??
The Hobbico plastics were the best..I noticed on my 4s Outcast that it was different after horizon took over manufacturing
My Hobbico Granite was a beast. Shock is being repaired...
@@RazorRC Nice..I'm glad they didn't leak at least! Lol
So far the only problem I have is that it take 4-5 hrs to charge
You can look for a higher amp/wattage charger.
Can you do wheelies on the begin, i have a problem it looks like cogging?
did you gear it up? It might cog if you gear it high
@@RazorRC i strip the spur up but, it looks that is nog the reason, btw i run on 2s. Is that the problem?
@@mennokuipers4266 yeh on 2s the granite tends to cog more. Its really set up and meant to run on 3s
I have one but it’s blue
That thumb nail. 😳
12p Fahrenheit it celsios
Don’t know about u but their stock spectrum servos are garbage they hardly keep a straight line ! The old red Arrma ones were way better
I agree
Durability doesn’t seem great I guess you have to spend more money to get better durability. Great video though 👍👍👍
Did you see the crashes lol am my missing something, can you guys point me something more forgiving for 50 ft mishaps money no option 😅
I own over 15 rc cars and trucks (Arrma, Losi, Traxxas, Axial, etc) and this truck (by far) is the most durable. I jump it over 10 feet in the air and for 30 to sometimes 40 feet in length and haven't broke a single thing. You have to know how to bash and control the car in the air. Terrible landings all day will break any truck.
@@leetjohnson agreed 👍
@@leetjohnson me2 and its cheaper for me buy new granite, than maintenance on approx 15 rcs
@@paulclancy2404 Yep! I hate fixing differentials!
Not bad for a banggood made in China rc car
It's not banggood, it's Arrma.
Yeah arrma is one of those Chinese sweat shop brands
@@Joe-no5dj what isn't made in china these days? 🤔
Lol the random guy that kept trying to talk to you was so annoying. You were obviously not interested in chit chat and were trying to focus on the driving. Some people are so clueless lol
