    Love these comparisons between these two trucks. I made the hard choice a year ago to go with the Rival. The deciding factor for me was part, I'm a AE guy, handling, and price. It's a win win either way though. Rival with a 120a esc, xt60s and a 50+C batt and I'm doing 48 too.

    Thanks for the video. I’m wondering if you retested using the same batteries? Also what’s the price difference between these two. They’re both on my shortlist so you could make the difference to the one I actually buy. Cheers!

      @rcreviews9894  2 года назад +1

      Although when I ran these trucks they were using different brand batteries, they were both running 3s, as far as the price difference, the MT10 is slightly cheaper then the granite but not by much, as far as upgrades, the MT10 takes it, the MT10 comes stock with LEDS front and rear, along with front and rear sway bars, the granite does not, both are very durable and perform well on the ramp, for me it’s a hard decision because I like them both, hopefully this helps👍

    Great video! Might get a mt10 with max10g2 140 esc and a 3665 kv motor to make up for the speed. Would probably be meaner than a stock granite. I do love how the granite looks and that it’s bigger but the mt10 seems to need less upgrades, has center diff etc so then I can spend on the electronics instead. From what I’ve gathered the mt10 is a more durable car overall? The granite seems to be a bit hit and miss in that department.

    Great video thanks. I think this has me convinced to get this one for my wife, she likes the looks of it and every video I’ve watched so far the driver comments how well it handles. For example the first one they commented how easy it was to drive on grass, the next video they were running in a skate park and commented how easy it was to do tricks and corrections in the air and now you’ve mentioned how it’s easier on speed runs on the pavement. She has never even seen an RC car before never mind driven one, so this just might be the one for her I have the I’m a granite and the Hoss an Losi LMT. Oh I should mention she’s out of country and I just got into RC a couple months ago so I think I’ll surprise her with it when she gets back this fall.

    I agree with you on the re-test with the same batteries because that could maybe make up the difference a bit on the speed run. The granite may be more difficult to control but just look how easy that thing pops wheelies it has so much power compared to the rival. That being said maybe with the same battery the rival will have a little more pep but I don't think it will quite be on the same level as the granite even with the same battery. Overall I think the granite wins but I may be a little biased as a granite owner lol. Thanks for making the comparison I enjoyed it

    The team associated probably has more stability because the granite wants to do 48-49 mph . While the associated can only go 43 pinned out. Gear down the arrma for a max max of 43mph and I'd bet the granite would find a whole lot more stability. 5mph may not seem like much but it is a huge difference when tires start ballooning at 45mph.

    Associated seems more stable because it can only go 42mph vs arrma 48mph. Any car with 6mph less speed would be a whole lot more stable especially when your at the tires ballooning threshold with the arrma and associated has no ballooning at all. Make the arrma top speed 6mph slower and is bet it would be way more stable.

    Really the average speed look like 45 on the granite, but both are nice, for the price the rival wins

      Yeah I go by top speed not average, the granite has more of a punch and performs better on the ramp, however the Rival does handle better overall especially full throttle, at the time of the making of this video they were the same price, giving the slighter edge to the rival because of the out of the box upgrades, front and rear sway bars, front and rear LEDs, however now the prices have gone up on all Rc’s nationwide, so I’m not sure if the Rival is still as cheap as it was then, thanks for watching brother 👍

    More controllable because it does 42mph instead of 48 🤣

      That is somewhat true, however I can full throttle the MT10 down the street one handed, where as the Granite can get out of control if your not careful, remember the MT10 has front and rear sway bars too, sooo

      @@rcreviews9894 I don't really care how a monster truck handles... It's not a 4tec or b4 buggy. So I prefer stronger waterproofing, electronics, parts availability. That said I just picked up used mt8 for $250....

      @@kenmastersmaster well I would have to agree to a certain extent, I agree that a monster truck can kinda get more of a pass when it comes to handling because most people run them off road and bash the hell out of them anyways, myself included, however in this situation ( comparison video ) handling is just part of it and I have to admit I have had monster trucks in the past that handle really bad, traction rolling all over the place and breaking all the time, so with that being said there are trucks that are better than others, durability and handling as well.
