So.....if you arent looking to spend money just wait... go have adventures....been in this for 10 months and tge granite mega was my first ride too. Went to the track during a muddy winter day and just cooovered it. Went around my neighborhood. Webt through trails in parks...
As far as upgrades
I started by calling arrma and getting a new servo
Had to ask for a new motor about a month in after a 3 pack trail run through woods and water
Got a brushless 2pole 39kv and 60a esc and the thing flew...
Bought a tbone bumper soon after
Needed a wheelie bar after that
Needed a 3s after that
Had to send it to arrma to fix it about a month later.
Kept loosing dogbones and axels... so i got hpi 83mmx6mm silver dogbones. Witha little nitro tubing to help even them out...(it has only popped 1 time in 5 months of driving now and the axels are fine)...thank blxer
Motor fan...this is clutch...my contibutionView attachment 407
This is a 30mm fan held in by existing screws in trans and some extras from other intgey brand fans and heatsinks. Hit right on the bell
the integy heatsink
Then got a hobbywing (if u want cheap and good this is the obly option) 120a esc and 38kv
Got some trenchers
As far as a must have upgrades
T bone bumper
Motor fan
Hpi dogbones
Traxxas slash metal shock caps (haven't tried them but the reviews are good as far as duribilty goes)
Besidez those, it is all about what you want to do. How much u wanna spend, u know
As it sits
Spent 170 on the truck
40 on 3s
70 on trenchers
70 on 120a esc
15 on castle bec
35 on 38kv 4pole 550
15 on motor cooling
5 on shock oil 60wt
15 on T bone bumper
So about 440 spent on the chassis
Then about another 80 on the bus body paint and stickers mounts and lights
this is your first truck i would suggest getting a set of hex drivers and screw drives (each have 5 tools) for like 10 each from dynamite.... totally changed my fixing game... buy a heat reader for like 20 bucks...soldering iron...bearing oil... an air compressor (hadbt done that yet but i really need to) for cleaning...
Yeah.... bout it for now
