Welp, crap sells ya know. This truck makes the Boost line look like gold. I still have a box of new and slightly used upgrades for it that I’ll never use

It’s a $99 RTR RC car, it’s not supposed to compete with the 4x4 line, there’s a reason those cost $200+.

The 4S line makes the 3S line look like crap, the 6S makes the 4S look like crap, etc etc. so should we all spend $550 on a 6S?

My nephew was 7 and got one for his birthday and had a lot of fun with it. Now he has a 2wd Slash and a Vorteks mega. Someday I’ll give him a 3S and eventually a 6S.

Good points, the real advantage is the ability to go pick up parts today at the LHS..vs the Amazon $99 cars where one might wait a month for parts. I'm not interested in a $99 brushed rc ATM, but when them grand kids come along.. you bet I will

I almost want to get one for the 5 year old kid next door who always comes over when he's out front with his parents and asks to drive my wifes 24th scale crawler.

Can you limit the things so they're slow as fuuuuu.

Granite voltage? Yeah pretty slow. Between the 2wd and the controller set to lowest power level, it's pretty dang slow. It can still pick up some amount of speed if you drive in a straight line for a long time. The only downside is that it's not torquey at all at the lowest setting.

A lot of the other 3S rigs are $30-$50 off too.... like Granite for $290. It think it's anything they consider a 'truck' - it's truck month.

edit: Oh and they seem to have a bunch of basher tires on sale too. Was glad to see that backflip LP's were not one of them, since I bought a set last week. Many sale $20 or $30 off on a pair of tires.

The Granite Voltage's we have are pretty tough. They have taken some pretty bad crashes.. But... The drivetrain is weak. You snap the plastic outdrives and internal diff gears pretty easy. Taking them apart to replace the diff is crazy... For 2WD I prefer my Traxxas RC's.

Sure, you can win the QA/QC lottery and it might be a little tougher.. Our experience has been mixed. I think they were worth it when they were on sale for $60 a couple years ago.

Rcbattery.com appears to be having an Easter sale. I've never ran any of their batteries myself, but it might be worth a try.

Man, for that price I'm tempted to get another one for when I inevitably drop/break mine! Most places I've seen have em up to $300 now (I got mine from amazon for $200)

Haven’t bought anything rc related for a good month, but the deal on the hatchets for a Kraton 8s was too good to pass up.
