Hi, I'm a new member from the UK and new to RC's. Bought my first car which is a Xmas presnt for my son (but kind of for me too!). Being completely new to the hobby I didnt really know where best to start but looking at the various You tube videas etc thought the Arrma Granite 4x4 looked a pretty good bet. Unfortunatley at the time I wasn't aware there were different versions - I bought the ARA102720T1 4X4 3S BLX Monster Truck ORNG/BLK, but only just know realising this is an older model and I'm starting to see some poor reviews, with some of the issues apparently resolved in the V3. It's really devastating now that I realise I could have got the V3 for only slighlty greater cost, and it's too late to return it to the web site I purchased from.
It's still in the box, as its a present so I'm just wondering if anyone would recomend trying to sell this version and go for a V3, or is it still considered decent enough to be worth keeping? If so, the main issue appears to be the poor STX2 controller. I guess I'll find out for myself when I try it out, but just interested in any views on what to look out for with this model. Or any other general tips.
Thanks
