the granite is a monster truck so is going to roll more on corners. Depending on what surface your going to be running the cars on i'd consider the arrma senton or infraction

@@Granite-City-RC Thank you for the reply. I will check them out.

well if you've got a month to wait there are a couple more things you can do like the battery and wheel mods ;) and maybe adding more weight at the back

@@Granite-City-RC I just weathered the paint and added a quick disconnect for the bucket and a driver figure definitely having fun working on it

The tamiya would be a less frustrating build then this one. Tamiya have better instructions and less confusing to build if your not use to kits. If you want the Absima i'd just buy the RTR one then maybe change the motor for a brushless one

its set up like a real excavator so i guess they thought people would be fine with how it works ?

just make sure you swap the right ones lol

The boom motor ones are fairly straightforward, it’s the green plug. Works great and now reversed but need to figure out which wires are the limiter cutoffs so they work with the motor direction being reversed. No diagrams online unfortunately

LOL it is a pain to build, i think by the end of the build videos i say don't bother getting the kit , just buy the RTR and swap out the motor and servo. i mean if somone gave me to option to eith build it again or take a drill to the head, pass me the drill i'll do it myself. I built a TRX4 sport a little while back and that was such a joy to build. Even tamiya are are great to build, i mean, they aren't great cars , and its hard finding where the screws are in the 20 packs or random hardware they give you, but you can build it without wanting to to pull you eyes out lol

there are 2 websites to look at for upgrades : magomhrc.com/en/ and wuehlbox.com/shop/en/ . I got a lot of parts from them and they normally work well

Thanks man

@@Granite-City-RC Good morning my friend I would like to know if there is a difference in the Huina 583 loader between the V3 and V4 models and how to differentiate this when purchasing

Good morning my friend I would like to know if there is a difference in the Huina 583 loader between the V3 and V4 models and how to differentiate this when purchasing? Thanks

@@vitororsatti5552 the will look exactly the same on the outside. I can only guess the most will be V4 now as this was a couple years back when i madethe video. But if it does not have proportional controls then it's V3. If it has proportional steering / acceleration then it is V4 . I don't know if it says on the box which version it is , but worth looking just in case .

Thanks :) I'm no expert when i come to RC's which is why i take the time to do on screen invetigations, they might save some people time if they have the same issues. When doing demonstratins and interacting with the public you have to expect somethings going to go wrong lol. The 5 FTX kanyons the group has for the public to use ( for donations to charity ) normally come back with a lot of broken parts ;)

yeah, it is :) although i did forget to rough up the outside of the body so the paint job didnt work 100% like it should have, but i did the same on my coyote body and it has worked correctly :)

@@Granite-City-RC Obviously you need to crash it down some rocks etc!!! Oh, and just as a by the way, Range Rovers have an aluminium body. 😉

there are 2 places that i use mainly for upgrade parts : wuehlbox.com/shop/en/ and magomhrc.com/en/

LOL, 1 miiiiilion dollars ;)

Thanks buddy :) there's not much more i can do to it, 1 being painting, and another being cutting it in half to give it " suspension " ... but i'm not gonna do that lol

Thanks buddy :)

Thanks buddy

Always try a local hobby shop where you live first. I found it on offer from here : www.applianceelectronics.co.uk/viewproduct/14798/trx-4-sport-assembly-kit-4wd-no-electronics-trx82010-4 , but they are a UK shop so dont know where they will deliver to. ** lol only just noticed you said "when" i got this at christmas**

@@Granite-City-RC jajaja yes i have a error write, but your anwser is good. I don speak english, From Mexico. Tanks but address shop page

@@RCrawlerLeon prueba esta tienda en américa : www.amainhobbies.com/search?s=Traxxas%20TRX-4&fk=26_183&lg=fk26 , No conozco ninguna otra tienda que esté cerca de ti. traductor de google jajaja :)

Thanks buddy :)

that sucks dude :( They are easy enough to replace , i just dont like spending money on fixing broken things lol

@@Granite-City-RC yeah m2 I just modified my huina 1593. Im a new at rc so was very happy I succeeded. Than I was having fun in my dads garage loading dump trucks and grading sand... bucket broke. i have one more week holiday so I planned to have fun with them but guess not lol. But anyway it nice things break for me I forces me to become a bit more handy with rc. Luckily my dad know rc quit well so if I mess something up he can help. But just replacing a servo shouldnt be a problem i mean more like If i ever gonna do more complicated mods or builds Rc is fun but its not cheap :(

Btw i just did the dump mod on the 1583. I made the linkage from 50 mm to 60 mm Then it broke I used a large bucket. Is it to much for thi fellah?

@@John-nx6ue is always good to learn how to fix things lol. I like building kits so i know how to take it apart and fix it if needed. Its also why some of my videos take a while, i'm figureing out what i'm doing as im doing it lol I used my 580 and 583 to dig my garden pond, was fun but took ages to do ( videos are on my channel about 2 years back )

@@Granite-City-RC oke very cool. So you have a lot of hours in your huina 583 with the improved dump angle. But you used to normal bucket that comes with it. So I guess to big bucket to heavy for a stock huina 583 :( or it just broke idk

Hello Spain lol

yes , from a while back: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGfHfqyGq6egnrc

@@Granite-City-RC thanks so did u have to grind some off the plastic for the wires not to rub. Thanks for your videos. I have a few also

@@1tonysgarage no i didn't need to grind bits for the wires i just trimed where the top screws in to get the magnets and screws at the right height

Thnaks Buddy :)

yeah, got that at the start of the month and though i'd get it built for Xmas :) got another on for Xmas just starting to build that :)

Thanks buddy, i do enjoy a build :)

gracias

Its the standard size that come with the huina loader, not 100% sure , but wanna say about 5-6mm if i remember right

no allen bolts / hex hardware , its all cross head screws. also , not sure what the metal is but its not iron/steel

No problem :) i thought it would be handy for people

Thanks buddy. If you spend 30+ hours digging a garden pond with it you'll soon get good with an excavator :)

i do like the construction RC's :)

First try a local hobby shop. You might be able to fine it on banggood or aliexpress. I bought mine from www.modelsport.co.uk/

@@Granite-City-RC Thank you. Do you have a social media address where I can reach you? I have other questions to ask. The scoops on this site are not like the ones in the video.

@@servetkurtulgan3619 i only do youtube, so no other social media. As far as i know the V4 has the bucket like mine in the video, V3 has a slightly different bucket.

@@Granite-City-RC I understand. What I want to ask you is, where can I buy motorized pistons that provide excavator movements? Pistons that enable the excavator's head to open or the arm to move up and down

@@servetkurtulgan3619 try looking for rc spindle drive on banggood or aliexpress would be my guess, should be able to find electric motor ones , or hydraulic cylinders and pumps for rc's

i needed to get them replaced after the first day of using the granite lol, but the front ones have lasted ok

magomhrc.com/en/huina-583-hydraulic-conversion/1697-huina-583-traction-kit.html

Thanks , i'll have to get it out for a test soon :)

@@Granite-City-RC in the past I had some construction machines. But now is just scale crawlers of diferents sizes and brands. Probably in the future I'll buy one

@@Fortes_RC_Adv they are fun / relaxing to play with. If i had the money i'd get hydraulic ones.... but it's also hard to justify spending £10k on a digger, loader, dozer, and dump truck lol

it should be fine. The stock batteries are a 2s lipo, and these are 2s lipo's just with a bigger charge

www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005765057290.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.21ef1802KUvLod is where i got mine from , but have a look round aliexpress for either 1573 or 1583 parts you should find it :)

Cheers buddy, have a good one :)

kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2TTlph8jMurl7M

No problem, good luck with that :)

If I may ask. What electronics are you using to replace in the 583? What would I need to replace the electronics in my 583? I understand it is a little more complicated than simply swapping ESC's?

Thanks :)

no problem mate , it is a funny odd cool thing to see running about the place
