Granite New Granite Voltage - 2s wheelie fun?

[No_Traction]

I found a new Granite Voltage RTR for $99. I was thinking of picking up a Rustler XL-5 or ECX Ruckus for some 2WD wheelie fun, but then I saw this. Will it's survive on 2s. Any things I should absolutely change? Thanks.

My Voltage doesn't wheelie on 2S.

I guess it would help to mention I plan on putting a Chinese brushless system from a truck I destroyed.

It’ll need some better tires and more power. And metal out drive cups.

Edit: I’ll add that I love the voltage. The electronics suck. The drivetrain sucks. The chassis sucks. But driving around such a lightweight monster truck is super fun. Anything better is so much heavier.

I love my Mega 4x4. But I wanted a 2WD truck. Monster, or Stadium. Based on your above wondering if the Rustler or Ruckus or Amp might be a better option.

I’m not familiar with those. The voltage is good after some upgrades. Maybe $100 worth of parts. Just wanted you to know what you might be getting into.

Sounds like I should just get a v3 mega and take out the front diff

Could be cool, but it would still be a lot heavier than a voltage.

Yeah. Sadly
