  • I finally got around to swapping out the radio systems in all of my Arrma vehicles. In this video, we take the Granite 3S BLX out for it's first run with the DumboRC 6ch transmitter and receiver. I didn't have any real problems with the stock radio/receiver, however, "You can't miss what you never had!" The Dumbo radio is very fast & reactive compared to the standard Spektrum STX-2 that comes in the box from Arrma. (It's also very cheap and has over 400m distance.) Now... I have to learn how to drive this car all over again. Check out "JUMP PRACTICE" in this video and count the crashes, lol 🤣😃😎!!! -djsoulforce!

      @DJSOULFORCE  Před 4 lety

      Yes, I've used and demonstrated the gyro function in this video - czcams.com/video/wPHyhAQIpHY/video.html I found that if your car runs straight normally, then the gyro sometimes over corrects and makes the car wobble!!! Thanks for watching and your feedback.

      The DumboRC transmitter/receiver woke up all of my Arrma vehicles. I now have it installed in 5 cars and I have at least 3 spare receivers. I love being able to go out with several cars and only one transmitter. It's not the best on the market (no model memory) but it is the "best bang 4 da buck" out there! Thanks for watching and your feedback. Happy bashing bro!!!

    Hello, I have got an arrma granite v3 (last model) and the model has a little throttle delay when the model starts from standstill. I knew the previous version had this problem (v2) but how is possibile also last version? I set punch to maximum but nothing... I read that with dumbo rc radio and trsmitter this issues can be fixed, is it true or no?

    • @DJSOULFORCE
      @DJSOULFORCE  Před 3 lety

      Yes, it is true. The Dumbo receiver has almost no delay and has super long range. See the links in the description of this video for more information. Thanks for watching and good luck!!

  • @tspoon5922

    Hey Man, Nice video. Are those 17MM wheels yours usingon the granite? Im assuming they are 3.8in wheels. I was told I would have to regear it or it would cause damage if I did that. Am I seeing that right?

    • @DJSOULFORCE
      @DJSOULFORCE  Před 4 lety

      Yes, those are 17mm wheels. You can see more info in this video - czcams.com/video/PzufaVkmUKo/video.html I'm using the Hot Racing 17mm hub extenders. So far, I've only broken an A arm, which was my fault, lol. The gears are fine (for now) and the larger wheels, gives it more speed. So now, I'm happy running the Granite on 2S to slow her down a little!!! Thanks for watching!!!

      I don't remember all the details, but it was as simple as removing the old receiver and replacing it with the new one. The Dumbo receiver comes with instructions on how to link/calibrate. Good luck, thanks for watching!!

      DumboRC radio works great, also has built in gyro. I did a Hot Racing hub extension mod to my Granite and Big Rock, they're both riding on 17mm hexes now! The tires are ZD Racing Pirates 2 tires. If you have time, watch this video - czcams.com/video/PzufaVkmUKo/video.html Thanks for watching!!!

      I had to add hub extenders to make these wheels fit, otherwise, I did no other suspension mods. The tires came off of my ZD Racing Pirates2 monster truck, 17mm hubs. Watch this video for more info - czcams.com/video/PzufaVkmUKo/video.html Thanks for watching and your question!!!

    Hey my friend I have an Arrma granite V3, it comes out of the box with a spektrum SLT3 radio and its receiver, I’ve used it for around 60 backs and it’s been working really well. I also own a DUMBORC X6PM-350 Radio and receiver and I’d like to ask you if you would recommend it over the stock one? I like the idea of using only 1 radio for my granite and my other rc, anyway thanks for your time, nice video!!!

    • @DJSOULFORCE
      @DJSOULFORCE  Před 6 měsíci +1

    • @DJSOULFORCE

      Sorry buddy, I just got this message. The receiver calibration is very easy to do and is on page 15 of the user's manual (throttle setup) To change out the receiver/transmitter, watch this video - czcams.com/video/SU2lcCBIGHo/video.html or search on CZcams for many "how to" upgrade receivers! Good luck bro, thanks for watching!!!

      I'm not sure about the exact dimensions but these are ZD Racing tires from the 1/8th scale Pirates 2 monster truck. To make them fit, you'll need a set of hub extenders. Watch this video for more info: czcams.com/video/PzufaVkmUKo/video.html Good luck, thanks for watching!!!

      I didn't know how bad the STX-2 radio was until I did the upgrade. I now have the Dumbo receiver in all of my Arrma vehicles (Granite, Big Rock, Typhon, Kraton 6S) and recently tested it on the Kraton 6S. After I did a new ESC calibration on the Kraton, I realized that I needed to go back and re-calibrate all of them. New video with all updates coming soon. Thanks for watching, happy bashing!!!
