what are best upgrades

Poplar question here lots of answers in the search....

No budget - Do nothing ride it as is...good out the box

Little budget - Servo replace the 7kg stock, Badland MX tires, better metal pivot ball links

High budget - M2C stuff like the motor plate, and other high-end enhancements

What's your goal...basher (medium, heavy), send it person, etc...could help with some answers from others.

Only upgrade once you break a part. I don't recommend metal arms, metal body posts, and other GPM Parts. Remember plastic i what makes these cars strong,

 

[Thrackmoor]

I definitely second the servo replacement. You'll likely need an aftermarket 25t servo saver, though.

Best upgrade - driver attitude and skill . Not trying to offend, they are truly the best ones to acquire, they will also cost you the most in broken parts.
HW wise, do as it breaks, at least on the Granite. 6S versions are a different animal and warrant that question.

I agree with Exc31 don't upgrade until you break something. Although I have got gpm turnbuckles which are lasting well, my stock ones wore down the pillow balls quickly and added slop to the steering. The servo will probably crap out the cheap 25kg from amazon are good. And rpm arms when you need them. Happy bashing.

As others have said, don't upgrade anything unless you have a specific purpose. Just asking for upgrades is pointless. (As is giving suggestions if there is no specific purpose.) Why do you want to upgrade? Speed? Handling? Durability? Appearance? Off Road? On Road? Track? Jumps? Upgrades for one purpose can be downgrades for another. Other upgrades come with drawbacks. So you need to have a goal to know if "upgrades" are worthwhile. The Granite comes well equipped. Until you find something specific to improve the way YOU drive, don't upgrade anything. When you find something specific, THEN ask on the forum for suggestions.

I agree with grc. I didn't upgrade till something broke.

Bigrock/Typhon arms, Typhon Hexes, Bigrock turnbuckles, and Arrma Typhon wheel axles (x2).

I changed all hubs and suspension parts to the 4s parts. Same chassis.

Mine also started from a chassis, not a box.

Thanx

I second only upgrading once you break a part, it saves a lot of money.
