I love selling these at the hobby shop I work at. Something else we have discovered is drill a 3/16-1/4” hole right under the spur gear to allow dirt to escape. Really helps with the longevity of the spur gear.
Thank you 👍
Brother, your content videos are unreal. Keep up the wicked work. Thanks for everything.👍
Great Video I Have grown to love the Arrma stuff
Super cool Tony appreciate you sharing catch you on the next one
Looks pretty darn good for out of the box!! I’m certainly tempted 🤔
I do fancy one of these, great video 👍🏻
I've been really wanting to get a Granite even if I'm not super into bashing, I just love the classic monster truck look
Let it idle for a few minutes and the fan will cool the motor. Wild turbo fan or Rocket 30mm is a good upgrade. Love the content!
Right on Tony, Depends on how you drive it and how hot it’s going to get
Yeah the axle coming loose is the most annoying issue and repetitive issue I have had with my senton, but never lost the bolt and it's an awesome rc
Im thinking of getting one for my son...plus he loves green! haha Would be cool to see a vid with all of them together and how the differ.. Love these bashing vids.
Arrma GRANITE for the win again!!! love it Mike may post a Granite vid soon myself. Take care!
They’re $259 on horizon until 3/24/24
Don’t have one of those but if you have about $100 more the V2 Outcast and Kraton are MONSTERS!!! Love your channel tony!!
a day with the granite blx is always a good day 😎
Definitely a fun and durable truck. My son and I just put the longer rpm arms and HR 4s shocks. Walks of shame have gone done dramatically!
lol 😂 definitely won’t over heat it. My brother and I run 3 batteries through our trucks every time. 2 years later still running strong. ( Brushless and has a fan ). No worries.
Love this truck still run the original. Just waiting on new rod ends to come in as I broke one last time out.
My first 2 mods im doing to mine when it get here is the wing and wide typhon arms. I think it looks badass with these mods.
Saw this same truck online. Had to see what it performed like before I get it for my 12 yr old
I'm just gonna get this instead of the wide Maxx
I have three Granite trucks love them, so if you like the granite, you’ll just love the Redcat MT 1080 almost too much on 3S total blast comes with lights also
I love the run there with my LMT grave digger
Très bien merci pour cette vidéo 👍
I bought a few of the Megas for the kids... Overheated the ESC 3 minutes into 1st pack and the brushed motor lasted about 6 packs,
really wish I did the BLX.. the chassis is wonderful.
I almost got the mega, but I kept hearing about motor burnout.
Awesome video, probably the best for that truck I've seen 👌. Now I must buy one when my finance allow it 😂 subscribed 👍
I just bought one. I don't need permission to spend money in my house. I have what is called a Man House as opposed to a Man Cave.
Great vid! Makes me wanna unpack my v2 Granite and bash!
You’d have fun with it
Nice ...always wanted a 3s Granite
I just have tge 2wd granite voltage but it’s a fun truck. I put a proline 65 f100 body on it
Need a Sprite sticker ! BIG ROCK for me any day but my favorite R /C for the most part is the one Im driving at the time !
you should compare this vs the redcat landslide, similar money and set up. great video
Hi Tony! Great video man! I agree 100%. I have a Mojave , and a Fireteam and they are big, fast, and awesome but the ones I always go back to are my Big Rock and Granite and also the new Gorgon. There is just something about the the 3s (and now 2s) lineup. For me, they are fast and fun and just the right size for my small yard whereas my big boys have to go to a park or somewhere for me to run them. I was totally shocked at how good my Gorgon was on 2s, i had totally intended to make it a 3s but after running it, I found that surprisingly, I liked it as it was. Maybe I'll throw in a stronger servo because of my extra deep grass but for most people I think it's fine right out of the box. The Granite and the Big Rock are just so fast and fun and take so much abuse, they really are my go to 's! I hope that you and yours are doing great my friend! I'm trying to hang in there. 💯🤜🤛
You and me both RiffRaff! Love the 3s line and always reach for them. I’m curious about the Gorgon.
@@CCxRC I have to admit that I was really surprised by it, it's drive train is super strong and it's a lot of fun on 2s! I think we tend to forget how much fun a 2wd truck can be since most of our rigs 4x4 these days and the Gorgon really surprised me, it was fast on 2s, really tough and lots of fun. The price point is a bargain for how good it was. The only weak point that I found was the body being rather thin, but that is easily remedied by gorilla tape or t Rex tape before the first run. The drive train will easily handle 3s if you want to go there but honestly it did great on a good 2s high c rating battery! Hope you are doing well my friend! 💯 🤜 🤛
The Granite was my first RC and I beat the crap out it (skate park). Sure it breaks, they all do but it's cheap and easy to fix.
Totally agree, bang for buck the granite is an awesome rc, I've had mine for years, has wide arms and punch is up. It's a stunt beast. If you haven't got one, get one. Ha. John
Tony what a awesome video. Really enjoyed it. You have such a beautiful yard. Daughter wants a Big Rock, is there much of a difference? Also have you tried the spektrum basher batteries? Thanks again for a good video!
Thanks! Big rock is longer and has a wider stance which makes it really planted. But they both are rowdy.
I've a hobby wing 1/8 set up in my vortex and she rips on 3s
Strictly dirt and off-road
This video is kick ass in my book🤙
I'm waiting for my UPS to drop mine off in 2 hours cheers🤘
Right on Tony love my grave digger LMT
I leave mine on for a bit when they get really hot if they have fans. Feels like it cools it down faster. 🤷🏼♂️
I just got the 4s Outcast and replaced the stock fan immediately with an aluminum Amazon special that moves way more air. I can run it on a 8500mah for almost 45 min doing wheelies back and forth and the motor barely gets warm. For less than $20 delivered I highly recommend this for just about any car that comes with a plastic fan.
Awesome. Do you have a link?
@@CCxRC I'm not sure what happened. I posted a link and it looks like my reply was taken down? The fans are made by HOBOHY and say Rocket on the side. I used a 30mm fan for my car but yours may be different. Just a heads up, I had to reuse the original screws and put a washer between the aluminum housing and the fan grill so the screw heads won't pull through. If you use the correct size washer you can't even see them. I hope this helps! 🤓
Great bash 👍 Everytime I bash my granite 3s. I blow the rear diffs never fails like 5 times already. I never had the problem with big rock, vortek, infraction 3s or outcast 4s. next step is trying out 4s diff for it. It’s cool looking truck and have a lot of hops on it. I haven’t gave up on it yet. 😎
Dang! 😮 I’ve never blew a diff on any of our 3s line yet. Have had any driveline issues until the spur on the vortek went. Is it big air?
GUN TO HEAD : THIS OR A TRAXXAS STAMPEDE BRUSHLESS? ALSO BEST FOR UNDER 450?
SEMPER FI
GUNNY@@CCxRC
Nice video bro..👍
You need to change to gpm metal drive shaft and gpm metal shock tower, granite will have problems with the drive shaft and shock tower being damaged because the plastic material is not very resistant.. I have changed it, now there is no more problem..🥰🥰🥰
nice backflips😊
I just put gorgon wheels on my granite hopefully will grip better
TA Rival MT10 owners might disagree...I'm one of those.
I just ordered one of these. I've been playing with a Hyper Go H14BM but it's kind of not fully hobby grade. Two hex screws fell out on steering linkage and arm, it won't drive straight no katter how i trim it... I am on 3s and less than a month in (2 bashes a day though...) and i think i can hear the spur stripping (my MJX 14301 spur stripped fully so i am familiar with the sound) and the fact that those two hexes fell out just because rocks got into the where the servo meets the linkage (i think that's what it's called) i am not sure how long the lil Hyper Go will last.
Like i said, i try to bash twice a day (it's good therapy) and I'm not 100% happy with the MJX standard of quality.
Cute little mean truck !
Yeah but this is Sunday I’m watching now windy and rainy Yep good old Michigan but yeah nicer weather is it on its way
I've been trying to decide if I want to get a 6s Notorious or get more 3s and 4s RCs. I feel my XRT is too large, and I don't get the enjoyment of running that I do from My Outcast 4s (my favorite current RC). I also have come to prefer Arrma's vehicles over the other big brand.
Deja Vu in green memories of orange.
Have you considered adding a Outcast Wing to the Granite for protection to keep the body from getting chewed at the read,, one of the best mods I've done, can also the wing for a wheelie bar if you don't mind scraping it.
No. 🙂 if you watch my videos of “winged” RCs, you’ll here my displeasure of them. 😂 nothing makes sure you stay stuck on your lid like a wing.
Super 👍
Only run it for 5 to 8 minutes… then let it cool down?? That’s ridiculous. They have temperature sensor shut offs in place, they don’t over heat when stock. I’ve run my arrmas for over a year now and I’ll pick one vehicle and run two or four battery packs through it in a row with no cool down time. Every time I finish a pack the batteries cool and the motor is cool is from 60 to 85. I think I drove my cars in 95° weather once for one or two packs in a row but then I was overheating, not the car lol
I think your 5 to 8 minute recommendation is good for Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Australia, and 10 or 20-year-old electric cars
Which is better?🤔
This or the Big Rock V3??
Can you please tell me Which would be stronger, big rock v3 or granite v3? Thank you!
🔥🔥🔥
Guys 3s power for under 350 these trucks are tanks awsome product for the price
Definitely a tank for sure but i think the Rival MT10 will give the Granite a run for its money
I agree. The Rival MT10 is a sweet basher. I haven’t tried the V2 yet which I think goes for $399? The V1 MT10 stock tires weren’t my favorite, but overall the rig could take a beating.
@@CCxRC stock tyres arent that good i think, i got Proline Trenchers in mine. Sweet bash though dude
Hi what’s the range of the aarma granite remote ? Could I use the remote from the jbl 21101 on the aarma granite ?
What spur an pinion used from box is it 57t and 15t
ARRMA 3S line up is the best bashers for the money by far. they come home after a bash day unbroken. besides the rival mt10 i have never had the durability of these from any other rc car or company.
The MT10 is the other one that I think is fantastic value and a solid basher
I love my OG Granite blx. I have upgraded the crap out of it, but it really doesn't need it. She is now a 4s beast. On 4s, the thing is crazy. However, the drive shafts don't like it. Lol. I'm so glad you got another one. I subbed to your channel many years ago because of a ZD racing truck you had tested. And then bought a Granite because of you. Thanks, I think. Lol
I’m curious what type of 3s battery you’re using? You seem to be getting pretty decent run time. I bought my granite about a month ago, also the green one 😁 And my LHS guy recommended I buy a power hobby 3s 5200mah 50c continuous 100c burst battery, so I trusted him. Since it was much cheaper than the spektrum 3s smart battery. And I will admit 90% of my driving is in grass that’s probably medium to low height in my yard. And after only 4-6 minutes or so I notice the car goes into low voltage cut out mode, where everything still operates, steering, forward, reverse, but the car just creeps back to me. And when I put the battery on the charger, it’s definitely depleted. Which makes me wonder all kinds of things. Is it the battery, the ESC, the motor, etc draining it prematurely. I love this thing, but just when I seem to start having fun, the power hobby battery is drained. Also, I made this comment at the 11:07 mark of this video so your definitely getting much better run times than me. Well Nevermind. 😂 I saw you pull off the body to check the motor temp and see you actually have the spektrum smart battery my LHS guy steered me away from! 😡
I run the Spektrum batteries. Usually 50c or 100c. I feel like I get more time on the 50c. Just a little slower discharge rate.
Switch the car Lipo mode if you're using a lipo battery or it'll go into low voltage mode when it doesn't need to. It's set for nihm batteries I believe
@@mistflip69 it was the battery. I switched to the spektrum battery and got 20+ minutes run time.
Just bought one of these at an auction for $150 because it was a return of someone who thought it came with a battery
I'd say it is.
It’s a decent truck for sure but for the money the Redcat trmt10e in my opinion is a more durable truck and it’s 50 bucks cheaper
Redcat mt10e dang phone.😮
I was sent the wrong chassis for my ocv2.. don't ask me how but looks like I'm either buying one of these for people to drive when I go out or buying a broken one and doing a build from that haha😅
They gave it to me for free 😊
If you could only have one, would you pick the Granite or the Big Rock??
Big rock
Granite blx vs Mt10! From what I've seen you couldn't go wrong either way but man do those mt10's take a beating with some rpm arms..
Totally agree. It’s up in the air for me between the rival and the granite. Both are standouts. I didn’t like the original MT10 tires very much, but those look to have been upgraded in the V2. Rival shocks were better though. Part availability for the 3s line is a definite bonus
@@CCxRC You know something I don't see mentioned on RUclips often is the parts compatibility between the 3/4s vehicles. I'm wanting to build me a big rock with the wider arms I believe from the kraton 4s. Long/wide and a 4s esc and you'd have 1 high speed bashing machine
Great truck!!! Rival Mt 10 tho will waste this truck end of the day
This car is $269 now. Just need battery and charger. Which one?
Yeah I’d back up RPM I have their arms on my 2 Wheel Dr. gravedigger
I’m in Kalamazoo, how ya doing world ✌️😃
KZoo in the house!
it's green, has to be good lol
What song is that
Sooner Than You Know by Carvings ruclips.net/video/Mxkl5B5ZcK0/видео.html
I think these 3s ones are stronger than the 4s ones
Extend the drainage pipe past your track area... Boom, problem solved. Lol
It’s a large cement pipe that is above the ground but under the the hill. It allows the front yard to drain to the back so it doesn’t become a pond. Extending it soil out a pipe down the whole yard. But a lot of it just comes from the general grade of all the yard to that spot to go toward the river. Digging up the front area is problematic because of the natural gas lines. I’ll be doing some drain tiles in other areas and may try some there.
The rival mt10 is a far better rig and that's just a fact! Arrma produce entry level hobby rcs!
Out the box MT10 looks better and handles better especially with the center diff and shocks but Granite is also durable, faster and has better electronics. And the price for the granite right now is $260... My opinion not a fanboy of either, love both.
