I agree 100% about not buying a $500 R/C to tear up. People that say they want you to bash your RC because they don’t have the guts to jump a mole heal with their RC, they just leave it on the shelf and get it down to dust it off. Keep up the good work buddy, your videos they are great.
Nah i hate that tbf, I don't know how ppl will buy something like a traxxas xrt and let it sit on a shelf, I send my cars till I brake them and then I fix them, takes less than an hour and I'm back 2 shredding my car again lol 😂
My wife asked me what I wanted for Christmas last month and I said surprise me. She got me one of these and all I've gotta say is WOW. Never really looked into high end RC cars before but this thing is a blast!
@@Genos2600 I'm not sure if you can run it on 3s. I think 4s is the lowest they suggest. I'd check online and make sure you can run it on 3s. You can damage the batteries or electronics if you run the wrong batteries in an RC
@@outsourcedrc My wife said the hobby shop dude told her these would be fine and I can run one or two batteries. imgur.com/a/EMdXS08 Am I good to run one of those or do I need to use two? Appreciate the lookin out for sure. I know nothing when it comes to this new hobby of ours lol.
No RC reviewers ever talk about 'feel'. I grew up racing competitively and feel is where 90% of the enjoyment comes from for me even with bashers. Arrma's have the best feel of any basher out there. Most other brands have literally zero feel whatsoever, so that driving them is no different than just watching someone else drive them. If I can't make the car do exactly what I want it to, when I want it to, I'm not driving it. Typhon is one of Arrma's best. 👍
Not everyone has the skill of RCdude81 or Rich Dubberbash, those guys are top level bashes. We need input from all skill level drivers, videos like this help grow the hobby cause it shows what most of us are comfortable and capable of doin. Great review 😎🇺🇸
This video sold me....even though i don't need another RC...I will be getting this one. My Kraton 8s is not even a month old and I want this thing now.
I agree dude I hate bashing and killing my RCs they are NOT NOT fun to fix ! They have a saying “your not having fun unless u break something “! Hell no !!! And lastly waiting for parts sucks 🤦🏻♂️
Right , lol l that’s a bunch of crap . Sometimes it’s fun if it’s not an electronics problem or having to disassemble the whole RC for 3 diffs . Some cars it’s just better to get another
In my 2 weeks long quest to buy my first real rc car ive seen plenty of youtubers channel that were all about destroying their rcs, making them "fly to the moon" as you people say. But after buying a Typhon 6s for over 1k canadien $ with the battery and charger mostly because of your videos im not gonna just try to break it lol. Its fun enough just driving this thing, going off road and doing some jumps, no need to send it half a football field down range. Who has the money the rebuild this thing everytime you go out? And yeah, this rc is absolutely amazing, i went from a ruckus 1/18th 25mph i bougth to play with my nephew to this MONSTER. JFC this thing is fast.
@@outsourcedrc Haha, havent seen those videos yet, but yeah i bet it can. Ive seen that Thing come alive out of 40ft+ high jumps. It was just a bit out of my budget range and also not my ``style of driving`` yet, maybe in a few months once i get a feel of how these things fly. Thinking of doing the truggyfy mod on the typhon 6s and making it a real basher once im ready to start doing flips and stuff. But im probably gonna start with getting it on a track. Baby steps.
You're getting the Arrma experience now !!!! I put 300k in my Typhon center diff , perfect !!!! As another person said , wait til you drive the Talion !!! It is probably my favorite of the Arrma 6s lineup !!!
I totally agree with you about the bashing. I would rather spend more time driving my RCs than repairing them any day of the week. I thoroughly enjoy upgrading and repairing them but I enjoy driving them that much more.
I have the v4 of the Typhon so it's not much different from the v5 aside from the electronics mostly. I did change out the terrible radio and receiver to a DumboRC for about $30-40 and new bearings, but the BLX ESC and motor are top notch, no problems whatsoever, hell even the supposed crappy Arrma steering servo is solid. I couldn't be happier with it and I run it about every other day. I am, however, very envious of your beautiful land and home!
My new favorite RC RUclipsr, you drive them the same way I do so really enjoy your content and delivery style. Keep it up bro 😊🙌 Selling my Kraton Exb to go get this Typhon 6s V5
I have this one, the 3S version, and the Kraton 6S V5. I was a Traxxas guy until these three RCs. Put an EXB bumper on the two 6S's and some motor fans and let'm fly. The Typhon is perfectly at home jumping and bashing with a good bumper for sure. That 3S will shock you too. I got it going 44 mph. I found out the other day that the 6S Typhon will run on 3S no problem and is still nasty fast. I clocked my Typhon 6S at 63 MPH with the optional gear in the rain. I was running an 80C battery. I'll do it again with some 100C's when they arrive soon. I love how genuine your content is. You make me laugh when you laugh. lol. Keep it up bro. Oh, and bump that punch up to max and it will correct in the air just fine. Mine will do backflips.
the OTHER pro tip is the little balance connector holder at the back there. between the center driveshaft and the battery housing. if batteries don't have the plastic proector thingy on the balance connector you can slide them in those slots and buckle 'em in.
I have had my losi tenacity db pro for over a year and just today put high speed pinion on,turned punch level all the way up and stuck 3s lipo in it..damn thing is quick on 3s and handles like a dream..exceptional well built buggy!!
The Typhon 3s was my first Arrma and after owning the Kraton 6s and learning Arrma products if they would just put metal driveshafts and shocks it would be perfect. Those Typhon plastic driveshafts and shocks are the worst. So many times I had a rock in the back and tore them apart so I buy 3-4 sets of driveshafts at a time cuz I know I'll need them and the shocks too. Watching your video talked me into just getting the Typhon 6s V5 now. Thanks a lot lol luckily my wife won't know the difference when I take the Typhon 6s out, she will think it's the same 3s I had before😂
Great video. It's a very fast car. I hope you get a chance to try a Talion sometime - basically a hybrid of the Kraton and the Typhon. I like your excitement - keep it up! You make videos for the way many of us run our RCs. It's interesting to see the skate park stuff and all, but that's not how I run mine. Your videos are much more applicable to me. It was really funny to see you standing there looking at the ground where the Typhon dug the hole. Hahaha.
Holy hell. This might be a good pickup to complement my e revo 2.0. Revo loves to traction roll on pavement where the typhon slides like a dream and can FLY
They have the same motor. I don't know which is more fun, but I love my Typhon. I hear good things about the Talion. I don't think you can go wrong with either
I just went through this at Xmas when I got my Notorious. Hours and hours of researching and what I discovered is that it is very largely a crap shoot. One brand really stood out on the forums and reviews I saw and that was Gens Ace. Socokin also has good reviews and I bought one of those when I grabbed the truck. Haven't used it enough to give you a review of my own. Good luck!
hey been watching your vids for a while now. you made another great one. thank you man!! i have both traxxas and arrma and the typhon is a straight up beast .thanks again i cant wait to check back with your channel !!
Absolutely. I don't try to tear mine up. I got the Axial Gladiator, and a friend was trying to tell me just punch it to get up over lava rocks. I have a good feeling of what it can and can't do, and if you push them, then you'll break them, and not to mention you'll tear up the body. He broke his, and punched a hole in his body when he went over a cliff. These RCs cost way too much to just take them to their limit. Some people on RUclips get paid by RUclips to tear them up. OutsourcedRC pushes them, but not to just tear them up.
The first upgrade you need is 6 inch tires. It will raise the ground clearance by an inch! It makes it an absolute beast on and off road! I speak from experience.
yes, but I dont know how long it lasted. Its hard for me to tell when I'm filming because I do a lot of things that I would not do while not filming. I have a lot of down time when I film so it seems to extend how long I have been driving.
Hey there. I am looking to get one for this summer. I am quite new to RC, should I get the 3S or 6S? I just dont want spend on 3S and later regret for not getting the 6S from beginning. Thanks for all the info! Great clips!
Advice good but i would add to skip the extenders and do it right with kraton hubs. Then its beast and you font have to worry about leverage breaking anything. Either way throw the 2.8s on there and this becomes an unstoppable truggy
I have been with you since your first Revo when I bought mine. I have never seen you so giddy over a car ever! Congrats, I only run Arrma and Associated now (gave the revo to my Step-Son), and my Notorious & Kraton are my favorites. If you think getting a Kraton is too much like your Revo to justify it, you'll be shocked at how different they drive. Also once in the Arrma system the parts compatibility is so nice that you'll spend less keeping them up. 💪👊
I've got a 1/8 Castle in my Traxxas slash. You can only go about quarter to half throttle before it gets super rowdy when bashing. Its so much fun having that power though. Yours is a better buy for the price hands down. Looking at getting one of these. Great video!
Great video! I just got a Sledge for myself but want to get the 6S Typon for my son after seeing another driver at the local park tear it up with his! You might have just sold me! Wondering if I should wait till there’s a V6? Do they update them annually?
You like that thing now, make sure you tune your diffs and watch it really get nuts! I use 100k front, 500k center and 60k rear. There are tons of combos but I like this as of yet. And definitely shim the diffs. If you drive it stock for a few packs it'll feel like a totally different car after the redux! Great vid brother!
The way he sat there and looked at the car like someone shot his dog when it had the mud in the front. 😂😂 The Typhon is an awesome RC. I have the 3s myself! 🤘
I believe as long as its over 50c you will be ok. Be sure to check to make sure that battery fits. The typhon has a smaller battery tray than some of the other 6s Arrma.
I like that the traxxas guys are giving Arrma a shot, same with Mark Santa Maria. I’m more of a Arrma guy but the traxxas stuff I have I enjoy especially the 4tec 2.0 and the trx4.
I’m a bit surprised you haven’t put out any Xmaxx content. If I remember correctly, you were unhappy about body mounting screws pulling through ( I don’t remember if there were any more complaints). I guess right after you got yours, Traxxas addressed that by integrating body savers, because mine has them. I also added rpm roof skids and reinforced the body like I do with all my other RCs. Anyway, it’s my favorite RC and I figured you’d be posting up with that all the time.
Well, I have not had the chance to make the videos I want with it, and I dont want to just make bashing videos. I do drive it, I just dont record what I am doing. I have some videos coming with it.
Yep that’s exactly what it is front wheels losing traction I burned my tyres off front after second go out with it .. Lost grip on the front and it started rolling over . I put badlands max tyres on . Nice vid 😎👍🏻🤙🇬🇧
I'm not a fan of the look of this one personally, but holy cow are you having fun. I feel like your excitement in this video is the same as mine was when I got my Super Rock Rey. Oddly enough, I was more excited about my SRR than I was with my 1/5th scale. My 1/5th scale is even my favorite RC, but still wasn't as excited as I was when I got my SRR. Might have something to do with the look and/or power of it. My Losi 5ive T is what I expected it to be, a crazy big and powerful RC and it doesn't disappoint. The SRR is more than I expected it to be from the pictures and videos. Your experience with your new RC car is definitely coming through on video. 😊
When u won’t to go from buggy to street car it’s easy . Get limitless shocks and shock towers . Senton body mount and short carvette body from proline. And it’s all bolt on . Only drill holes in body mount to fit. It’s no cutting on typhon . It’s awesome street car .
When you buy the Kraton you are going to love it because it’s the best Arrma truck. I have the Kraton, Talion and Notorious and i had the Erevo 2.0. By far it’s the best 👍👍
@@outsourcedrc I had a Erevo 2.0 and sold it and bought the Kraton. It was the best thing that i did because the Erevo broke every time and the Kraton put me on another level of extreme bash without any problems 👍
Ok my son & I are getting ready to buy our second electric vehicle for light bashing, running on huge open soccer fields and probably little to no street use. The choices are the Maxx, this vehicle after seeing your video and your excitement it or the Traxxas UDR. Please advise which one you think Thank you, A Subscriber
nice pick up brother. The Typhon was the first arrma car I ever owned. And now I believe I have more than 10 of them. Like you I don't care about the brand but the smile and enjoyment the rc is going to give me. Great video brother 👍👌💯
@@Statslol The Typhon has a smaller battery box than other Arrmas because of the body. Two 3s Lipos stacked on top of each other might be too tall. The Spectrum 3s hard case lipos wont fit. if they are stacked.
Nice pick up! IMO...the Typhon is the best rig in Arma’s lineup. You may want to consider “truggifying” it. Gives you a bit more ground clearance and you’ll have more control when it’s in the air with larger tires. There’s some RUclips vids on how to do it.
![Seungmin "그렇게, 천천히, 우리(As we are)" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/kAzmhLHePqU/mqdefault.jpg)

And now you have 2 :)

I think dirt and a dirt track is what its good for.
great video we took ours out and we struggled to open our on full due to limited space roll on summer and dry fields.
yeah sometimes space is the limiting factor.
Got one. Love my arrma typhon 6s. Arrma tough
Tune the center diff..Will keep front tires from ballooning as much
I will. There is like, no diff fluid in stock. I'm waiting on it to come in the mail. I've had some ordered for over a month now.

@@robertwren2289 I have a few. I have a few videos on them. Like the TRX4 and such.
The first upgrade you need is 6 inch tires. It will raise the ground clearance by an inch! It makes it an absolute beast on and off road! I speak from experience.
What 6 inch tires do you use on the 6s Typhon?
Raise the body mounts if you can do the front with a kraton front body mount, the rear ones just raise it to one screw
In the park was that all on 1 spektrum 6s 5000mAh 100c about how long did it last for?
yes, but I dont know how long it lasted. Its hard for me to tell when I'm filming because I do a lot of things that I would not do while not filming. I have a lot of down time when I film so it seems to extend how long I have been driving.
Do you prefer this Typhon 6s over the WideMaxx? For what you have seen in a few runs
Yeah I do actually
How old are you 10??? Nice to see you so excited!!!Great to hear the fun coming through the mic. Enjoy!!!
Hey there. I am looking to get one for this summer. I am quite new to RC, should I get the 3S or 6S? I just dont want spend on 3S and later regret for not getting the 6S from beginning. Thanks for all the info! Great clips!
Take bigger now. You can start with 3s lipo to learn, and later, you'll add another 3s lipo to get 6s
Yeah you really should just get the 6s. you will outgrow the 3s pretty fast.
Thanks guys.
How is this buggy holding up? Still one of your favorites?
Yes! It's just vicious.
It jumps and handles very well enjoy
Put 5-10mm hex extenders on it and proline mx28. And that will be ur favorite truck
Solid advice here. You put some tires on it and it’s like a puppy. It will do anything to please you
Advice good but i would add to skip the extenders and do it right with kraton hubs. Then its beast and you font have to worry about leverage breaking anything. Either way throw the 2.8s on there and this becomes an unstoppable truggy
@@joelasher6281 yeah but I’m sure he wouldn’t do it the right way
@@joelasher6281 kraton hubs? 6s kraton? Is it a direct fit
@@8ightgeek just got this v5 and, slap a pair of HR steering blocks, badlands 2.8 all around and loving my truggyfied typhon!
Glad to see another Arrma on the channel 👍🏼
I have been with you since your first Revo when I bought mine. I have never seen you so giddy over a car ever! Congrats, I only run Arrma and Associated now (gave the revo to my Step-Son), and my Notorious & Kraton are my favorites. If you think getting a Kraton is too much like your Revo to justify it, you'll be shocked at how different they drive. Also once in the Arrma system the parts compatibility is so nice that you'll spend less keeping them up. 💪👊
Maybe one day I'll get one.
I've got a 1/8 Castle in my Traxxas slash. You can only go about quarter to half throttle before it gets super rowdy when bashing. Its so much fun having that power though. Yours is a better buy for the price hands down. Looking at getting one of these. Great video!
“I’m gonna try and take it easy on these tires.” Proceeds to continually thrash it 60 mph on tar. Lol.
Great video! I just got a Sledge for myself but want to get the 6S Typon for my son after seeing another driver at the local park tear it up with his! You might have just sold me! Wondering if I should wait till there’s a V6? Do they update them annually?
I don't know how often they update them. The V5 is safe to get. The V4's had a lot of issues. I've not had any problems out of my Typhon.
You like that thing now, make sure you tune your diffs and watch it really get nuts! I use 100k front, 500k center and 60k rear. There are tons of combos but I like this as of yet. And definitely shim the diffs. If you drive it stock for a few packs it'll feel like a totally different car after the redux! Great vid brother!
I believe this . I just haven’t torn it apart yet to do them all at once
The way he sat there and looked at the car like someone shot his dog when it had the mud in the front. 😂😂 The Typhon is an awesome RC. I have the 3s myself! 🤘
lol
Do you run 2 3s specktrum lipo batteries in yours? If so, how do you get around the body not fitting?
Nope. They won’t fit. I run a 6s Spektrum soft pack.
I ordered a 6s so I can get the full potential of the car. The Typhon is really fun to drive.
Are none hardcase lipos safe to use with RC cars?
You can use them. I use them.
I just bought one today version 5. In fact me and my buddy both bought one and ask for discount. They gave us 10% off! Lookig forward to this one
Do you have to use a spectrum battery?
No, but you need the right connection and I think that Spektrum may be one of the few batteries with it.
Nice flying
Happy new years bro! and nice new RC thats awesome i want to get one not sure this or the XMAXX! you tell me lol
Happy new year! I think I like this over the Maxx
Xmaxx out of the box dependability is a gamble. I've found arrma to be truly RTR compared to Traxxas.
Moves quick on 6S ! Do you think this will do Ok with a 55C ThunderPower ? 6S 5000mAh
I believe as long as its over 50c you will be ok. Be sure to check to make sure that battery fits. The typhon has a smaller battery tray than some of the other 6s Arrma.
I like that the traxxas guys are giving Arrma a shot, same with Mark Santa Maria. I’m more of a Arrma guy but the traxxas stuff I have I enjoy especially the 4tec 2.0 and the trx4.
Started out with Arrma my self then went to Traxxas have boh now. Arrma for speed Traxxas for bash.
@@seanweir7311 I bash with my Arrma’s but my 4tec is doing 83mph on 3s pretty sure I can get that 100mph on 3s.
I’m a bit surprised you haven’t put out any Xmaxx content. If I remember correctly, you were unhappy about body mounting screws pulling through ( I don’t remember if there were any more complaints). I guess right after you got yours, Traxxas addressed that by integrating body savers, because mine has them. I also added rpm roof skids and reinforced the body like I do with all my other RCs. Anyway, it’s my favorite RC and I figured you’d be posting up with that all the time.
Well, I have not had the chance to make the videos I want with it, and I dont want to just make bashing videos. I do drive it, I just dont record what I am doing. I have some videos coming with it.
Ordered one today. Can't wait to get it...
You are going to love it!
Do you like it?
Yep that’s exactly what it is front wheels losing traction I burned my tyres off front after second go out with it .. Lost grip on the front and it started rolling over . I put badlands max tyres on . Nice vid 😎👍🏻🤙🇬🇧
I'm not a fan of the look of this one personally, but holy cow are you having fun. I feel like your excitement in this video is the same as mine was when I got my Super Rock Rey. Oddly enough, I was more excited about my SRR than I was with my 1/5th scale. My 1/5th scale is even my favorite RC, but still wasn't as excited as I was when I got my SRR. Might have something to do with the look and/or power of it. My Losi 5ive T is what I expected it to be, a crazy big and powerful RC and it doesn't disappoint. The SRR is more than I expected it to be from the pictures and videos. Your experience with your new RC car is definitely coming through on video. 😊
When u won’t to go from buggy to street car it’s easy . Get limitless shocks and shock towers . Senton body mount and short carvette body from proline. And it’s all bolt on . Only drill holes in body mount to fit. It’s no cutting on typhon . It’s awesome street car .
Drivetrain sound dry or low on oil...did you check that after your run?
Glad to see you got a arrma.
Yeah . Imo , it’s a longer jumper , vertical , then tap the brakes of needed .
Stoked to see this . I ve wanted to try one of these ever since a k6s . Seen the sale
Should i buy this 6s or 3s
6s. always 6s. its a lot easier to reduce the power than it is to bring it up.
What is the battery life on something like this?
I have a hard time judging. It seems like its about 45 minutes or so. It lasts a while.
Same I bought this too, thank you so much fun, screaming fast 💨 🏎🏎
Isn’t it cool???
@@outsourcedrc yes one of my favorites 👍🔥🔥 just crazy how fast it gets up to speed
The Typhon's are awesome! Love when people truggify them as well.
Arrma has a history of racing, their heritage comes from Team Durango and it has a smaller beginnings as well, and it was racing from the beginning.
What battery do u use? I want the car but I don’t have battery’s or charger
I use a Spektrum 6s. I have a Venom quad charger, but I would have gotten the Spektrum charger if I didn’t already have the venom
Man I can’t wait for my typhon 6s to arrive :)
You are going to love it!
What battery’s and chargers do u use
Typhon 6s démoniaque 😈 👍👌💪💪💪
Did you make the 30 and 45 degree ramps or did you buy them somewhere?
I made them. I have a video on my channel showing exactly how I did it.
When you buy the Kraton you are going to love it because it’s the best Arrma truck. I have the Kraton, Talion and Notorious and i had the Erevo 2.0. By far it’s the best 👍👍
I doubt I will get one. I may, but I doubt it.
@@outsourcedrc I had a Erevo 2.0 and sold it and bought the Kraton. It was the best thing that i did because the Erevo broke every time and the Kraton put me on another level of extreme bash without any problems 👍
My typhon also takes up grass like that! It’s hilarious! I can’t jump it in my yard for that reason lol!
Ok my son & I are getting ready to buy our second electric vehicle for light bashing, running on huge open soccer fields and probably little to no street use.
The choices are the Maxx, this vehicle after seeing your video and your excitement it or the Traxxas UDR.
Please advise which one you think
Thank you,
A Subscriber
I would say the UDR or the Typhon. I kinda steer people away from the Maxx to other RC's like the E Revo.
nice pick up brother. The Typhon was the first arrma car I ever owned. And now I believe I have more than 10 of them. Like you I don't care about the brand but the smile and enjoyment the rc is going to give me. Great video brother 👍👌💯
Glad to see your Arrma collection is starting to come along ! Traxxas Arrma both awesome brands ! Losi is a good 3rd for me
Awesome RC and ripping
I'm thinking about buying it would you recommend it?
Absolutely. I love this thing. I just put thicker fluid in the center diff and its amazing.
Ok thanks! What battery's did you use?
@@Statslol This one
www.horizonhobby.com/product/22.2v-5000mah-6s-100c-smart-lipo-battery-ic5/SPMX50006S100.html
@@Statslol The Typhon has a smaller battery box than other Arrmas because of the body. Two 3s Lipos stacked on top of each other might be too tall. The Spectrum 3s hard case lipos wont fit. if they are stacked.
Ok thanks man!!
Definetly going to get one of these and put street tires on it
Nice pick up! IMO...the Typhon is the best rig in Arma’s lineup. You may want to consider “truggifying” it. Gives you a bit more ground clearance and you’ll have more control when it’s in the air with larger tires. There’s some RUclips vids on how to do it.
Nah, I'll keep it as a buggy. Thats why I got it. I already have an E Revo and a Notorious.
