Brushed vs Brushless | Arrma Granite Mega V3 gets a GoolRC Upgrade

[@Mikeytats]

Love the upgrade and how to videos. Your videos have quickly turned into my background music while I'm wrenching.

[@RoadsideRC]

Love to hear it. Thank you!

[@LionelGuy-oc8or]

I put my Senton 3S Spektrum Brushless set into my Granite Mega , it now pulls wheelies and goes 52 mph , it’s insane now !

[@RoadsideRC]

Perfect setup for it!

[@chadlunsford6730]

I feel you on the fun factor. I love my Senton Mega!

[@RoadsideRC]

Exactly! Sometimes it is not about the 40' jumps...it is about simple fun!

[@ErrlRC]

Great vid Troy! I personally love my Granite 4x4! Mine is the brushless 3s BLX version, that goolrc combo I think was just a little under powered for it really to do more than the brushed system did, in the stock 3s BLX system the Granite can easily get over 30mph on a 2s lipo, on a 3s it can get up to 60+, the stock 3s BLX system is a 3500kv motor and a 100a esc, so I'm thinking maybe with a higher amp esc like an 80a you will definitely be able to get over 30mph on 2s using that 3900kv motor. Might be worth checking out before doing your giveaway with it.

[@RoadsideRC]

Yes! I believe you are 100% correct. This combo was a little disappointing. We have driven it more since, and I don't like this setup. I have a Hobbywing SC8 ESC that I will try in it.

[@jrserrano9396]

Will this brushless 3s blx fit the regular granite ??

[@RoadsideRC]

Yes!

[@dcking828]

I got one of these for Christmas and so far I've been threw 2 motors 1 servo the control arm broke and the gears shredded

[@RoadsideRC]

[@KurtsRCs]

Great video it has that perfect speed for messing around in front of the house

[@RoadsideRC]

It is good for that, but I am not 100% happy with the ESC programming. I have a Hobbywing SC8 that I am going to throw in it for giggles.

[@goof3012]

Seen you on reddit. Good stuff

[@RoadsideRC]

Thank you!

[@RICH6826]

I've just fitted a brushless to ours, but without changing the pinion we've seen no speed change at all (used 2s on both motors). Running much cooler though! Our brushed motor cooked running about on grass. Got a 17T pinion coming on Monday so should see some more speed!

[@RoadsideRC]

Great! Just going brushless doesn't always equal more speed.. but it sure is more durable and efficient!

[@jmorrow8122]

Hey rich what motor did you go with? I’m in the same boat toasted the first motor and am looking to go brushless but I’d like to keep the speed down as it’s for my 5 year old

[@Callmebutturblk]

[@bra1nc417d]

Well, I know a year later, that truck is long gone, but I would've loved to see a follow up video with that ESC properly programmed with the high power setting. Thanks for the video.

[@RoadsideRC]

The GoolRC never had enough power for the truck. I swapped the ESC for a Hobbywing, and it worked great. The truck was given away, and the new owner has been driving it without issue.

[@conandude76]

Got a vorteks boost, have added bigger shocks, upgraded arms cups wheel carriers and the 4x4 pack. Have a goolrc 3650 5200kv hoping that's not too much kv.

Will have to try with original gearing and see how much of the increase was engine and lipo swap.

[@bryans3483]

Thanks for this video. My boys each have the voltage. I was looking at this one for myself to run with them. So far the voltage has held up to their abuse. Hope this one can too! Just subscribed!! Liking your vids!

[@RoadsideRC]

Awesome! Yes, this truck is very durable and does come highly recommended. You can basically take 2 paths with the Granite 4x4. 1 - get the Mega and then throw a brushless setup at it. 2 - get the BLX from the start. I would honestly suggest that you go with (2). The only real drawback is that I don't believe the BLX comes with a battery, while the Mega does. Still - with 3 trucks running, you would probably be upgrading to lipo batteries rather soon anyway.

[@UCRascal]

Great video Troy thank you! I’m just getting into the RC hobby and waiting for my Arrma voltage to arrive. Seems like the 4WD Arrma Granite would be a lot more customizable then the voltage?

[@RoadsideRC]

Yes - there are a lot more parts available for the 4WD than the voltage. Still, that is OK. I also have a voltage - and that thing is simply a bunch of fun. Check out my video on testing it with the stock motor, a 12T brushed motor, and then going brushless!

[@JesseBMotors]

I need to get my hands on one of these newer 4wd Arrma’s. Great video 👍🏁

[@RoadsideRC]

They really are good. Of course, I would recommend jumping straight to the BLX models instead of the mega.

[@restinpiecesrc5528]

Senton v3 is a tank, i love mine

[@Hungrybird474]

Did you try the stock 3s. Brushless with arrma wide kit and 4s backflips ? The 17mm hexes are on Etsy , not widened . No rubbing . She flies , literally 😂. It’s great for the ramp , insane . Lots of wheelies otherwise and back to rollovers with 1” taller tires but it’s not bad . It’s like the granite was before the wide kit . I ran it for 3 weeks and switched yesterday . It’s been wet so I’ll see when the time comes if I like the stock tires or lp s .

[@RoadsideRC]

Awesome! Hope you like it!

[@BarstoneRC]

Great stuff man I never used the gool RC before. The Senton I had I put the brushless set up in it. I put the hobby wing 3s in it and that thing ripped pretty good. Cant wait to see who gets the truck next lol. Thanks bud

[@RoadsideRC]

Yes sir! I have had good luck with the GoolRC stuff before, but this one seems more like a dud. The boys and I have driven it some more since filming this, and we are just not really happy with the ESC. I have a Hobbywing SC8 laying around (4S capable!!!) that I am going to throw in it and see how it goes. Don't really want to give it away with this poor running.

[@gregdasav7401]

Bro that car is a BLAST! I friend of mine has one and it’s amazing. It’s worth noting thought that the stock spur will not last under brushless power though.

[@RoadsideRC]

Thanks! This is the new V3 - supposedly it will handle the brushless power...at least for awhile. :)

[@stevekoptyra4082]

I took a mega Typhon and did it up the biggest thing holding back your speed is that spur gear I believe it's got the same one in it is I had and it's a 91 tooth I kept doing all kinds of stuff to it and the speed was never really increasing until I changed it spur gear you change that spur gear even with the set-up you got right now it'll wake it right up

[@RoadsideRC]

Thanks! This is the new V3 version. From the parts list, it looks like the same part as the BLX version now.

[@stevekoptyra4082]

Yes sir for the most part it's the same stuff except for the slipper clutch assembly and spur gear the center bearing support on the drive shaft and the turnbuckles I believe that's it other than that I believe it's everything the same as the 3s oh yeah and also the aluminum motor mount plate

[@restinpiecesrc5528]

I got a video on here of my collection so far and a few running videos

[@4077661466jp]

Yeah no shame as i know from experience but goolrc we all know is about the cheapest drop in brushless conversion out there,however your cogging is most likely due to esc if you upgrade only esc to something loke a hobbywing $60 worth every penny would be world of difference also 60a isnt gonna be what you want it will work but if for offroad use then no onroad yes with right gear but if going 60a least be a quality brand again dont ask how i know this but goolrc 3660 3300kv is what i got in stampede with hobbywing 120a esc and man its scary fast for a cheap brushless motor has lasted way longer than could of ever imagined,still going to this day have already bought other motors for experimental kv/voltage performance so far 3200kv is about as far reliable u can get higher kv only gets hotter quicker for little more power better to up battery and lower kv 😉

[@RoadsideRC]

You are right!

[@AndruComedy]

Most ESCs have a programming mode you enter into and then the receiver/transmitter can change all the settings.

[@keithcoleylifeforce4020]

I used the 16 pinion change out and made sure that the pinion and drive shafts connection were at the same height, placed the cover on and checked the ability for a smooth spin and connection. No dice. It seems to rough in places as I spin the drive shaft connection. Also, I can’t seem to push the whole plastic motor case back in to place far enough to get the red piece to slide in. This is a very frustrating project.

[@RoadsideRC]

I apologize, I am really not following what is going wrong here. When talking about the pinion change, you mention making sure the pinion and driveshaft are at the same height. I think that might be where you are going wrong, as I am not sure what you mean by height in this situation. Getting the whole housing seated properly is 100% critical. You have to get the input from the transmission back in there correctly, or else nothing will work and you will break other pieces. I'm happy to help if you can provide more info.
