So I have a 5 year old that's interested in RCing and I am too for the most part. The initial plan was to get a decent truck for myself, leaning towards a Big Rock, that he could bash around with a bit too and then maybe pick up a Granite Voltage or two for him, and his 4 year old brother, to mess with and learn. The thing is I feel like the Voltage is really limited and he may get bored with it quickly, especially with me ripping around with something like the bigrock.
So if we try to upgrade it basically everything needs to be replaced right? So now I feel like I'm getting towards the price of a Mega if I do that and you get everything that comes with that, 4x4, better chassis, easier upgrade path but also a fair bit more money.
So the real question here is there a relatively cheap way to upgrade the Voltage to at least a decently fast truck and not completely overwhelm the chassis because most of the videos Ive seen appear to be putting very high powered brushless motors in them and turn them into basically undrivable wheelie machines. I like the idea of putting a brushless setup in one but I would line something thats still relatively drivable afterwards too.
