One thing you definitely need to do with arrma 6s cars before you even run them is check the diff fluid and shim the diffs if needed. They don't come shimmed well from the factory and sometimes they come with almost no fluid in them. They're usually okay but it's always best to check.
I bought a Typhon as a slider from EBay. It is sitting on my work bench waiting for electronics and I've been told to change the diff oil. But no one tells me with what to replace it with. Awesome bash!
I have a new video in the works, I tried the Traxxas 20m but went with a silicone ear plug in the center, best for bashing but not racing. Probably find the stock oil and double it for more fun on a track. For just track racing the stock oils are fine.
@@Houleigan The stock fluid is 7k-10k-7k. I bumped mine up to 30k-100k-30k. It definitely puts the power down but is a lot less forgiving when driving. I'm thinking about going a little lighter but I'm gonna run it where I have it for awhile.
Your a nut and I love it LOL. Wish I had you as a neighbor. 👍👍I just bought this same one yesterday. I love my 6s Notorious V5 and my 1/18 teton. But I think this one I will have the most fun with. Thanks for the Vid!
hi mate the spare pistons have different size holes 2-3 and 4 and 4 blank pistons. with the blanks i drill 4 1.5mm holes and perfect with 70 weight shock oil. I'm wanting one of those 👍🤪😜🤣another great video mate
Nice first rip. Yeah powerhobby batteries are solid. I have a a fewer of them, including the 4s 8000mah 120C graphene hardcase one's that I'm trying out on my Outcast 8s and EXB K8S. Working great so far.
I feel the same way about the spectrum ESC. It's a little soft on power at the beginning It almost "ramps in slightly" . Very stable flyer too. Not great for backflips with stock tires but fun rc.
I sure hope you build some huge jumps but with some good down slopes for landings. I've never been a fan of launching to the moon only to go splat on the ground.
I am eyeing the Talion EXB or Kraton EXB 6s. Considering how well that Typhon holds up to hard bashing like that, I am leaning Talion for a little better handling and mid-air control. Nice vid!
Yessssss great to see you got one of these man. Love mine. Although I am curious to see what tires you run on it. I run badlands mx on mine and they hook up great but the factory glue job was bad and then the foams blew out. Wicked video dude.
Those Tamiya cross hex spanner are taking over the hobby I have plastic one alloy one and the rest are pig iron, so having so many I have made a couple of dog whistles and a few bottle openers, the rest have invaded every orifice of my hobby storage almost prolific as ants who have taken over but are keeping their heads down until they develop a weapon to enslave us.
I don't understand why people buy buggys and bash them. Same as buying a go-kart and going on a motocross track, ain't gonna end well. On a track these things are MENTAL.
Oh yah!!! I put the Typhon on a DX5C with some other Arrmas. Rear skid plate/front bumper, that's it. The Typhon is a tank. I'm sure you will prove it!!!
Have you actually had that happen? I was weary of that too at first, now 5 years later, still on stock spur and i'm running 100% in a sand pit so small rocks are basically all i drive on.
Trust me get chassis braces and then a fan for motor u run the car all day with speed pinion first love my Arrma tough I was mine off with the hose and spray done a little WD 40
My son and I are going to build our second Typhon. It will be a 6s. What is the best servo, Esc, Transmitter /receiver, motor to get? We want this 1 to be bangin'.
Big air pump up looking forward too this Baby 👌👉💯. I have the Kraton 6s v5 running the Powerhobby 6s 5000mah 100c continuous 200 c burst A rock cut the center diff Down I’m looking to upgrade it. Any suggestions
@@ExocagedRC cool beans can't wait to see I may install one on mine but I would like to see what an 8th scale motor would look like on there I might try a 4050 1700kv TP what do you think?
That was an awesome first run Joe. A friend of mine has the 3s Typhoon but that 6s is on a different league. When you said tune the diffs up a bit, what do you have in mind? Keep up the great work mate 👌
nxx muscle fan for 30 bucks caant beat em i lost about 30 degrees on average when i installed mine coz when you get in grass those temps will deffo start climbing
It won’t last very long smashing it into the ground like that . Don’t think it’s designed for jumping more for speed . And it’s a heavy car for a 1/8 😎👍🏻🇬🇧
It's much tougher than all the racing buggies. No issues bashing it at the skate parks. Nothing the right shock oil can't fix. It's designed for bashing not speed.
Prediction:The servo will not hold up. 1st thing I've had to replace in every arrma I own. MKS makes a super $100 servo,4 being used with no problems so far.
Dude that's some hard bashing. That was really impressive thanks for the great video. That was a great demonstration of how it can hold up.
Vit parts be on there soon. 😂
not yet!
@@ExocagedRC not needed.....
Man I wish I could afford one of these. All I can get is a 1/10 rustler and 1/16erevo

I've messed with the center diff already but not the axle diffs
Have you changed punch settings. I put my on 8. Now i need new tires ripped a hole in one of them.
I’ve had a v4 v5. That radio isn’t bad at all on the v5. One if my favorite rc’s.

You won't be disappointed!
You are kicking up crazy dust
So glad you got a typhon Joe! It’s my battle steed! A cockroach of a car!
Turn up the punch on the esc👍
I'm super happy with my Typhon purchase
Think I'm gonna pick one of these up in spring. Looks like a pretty tough rig.
Love the 6s arrma line up....I have the v5 kraton abouslte beast in 6s
This thing RIPS love mine. Just picked up a limitless a week ago too
The SLT3 is actually a really good radio. It's based on the old tactic protocol and works very well
I gave it a second run soo thats a good thing. Still its coming out for the Flysky GT5

20 minutes later : all vitavon parts everywhere
Vehicle now weighing in at 50 pounds, but will never break! 😜😁👍
lol not yet!!!!
I have either 17 t or 19t pinion I didn't need the shims exo but you should check the diff fluids and your style you need thicker fluid ,imo
I have one too, probably the best one because its good base , and the strongest
😂😂🤣🤣😂😂👍🏻👍🏻
I love my Typhons!

I can't believe your just getting one brother... this is one of my all time favorite basher.. after a 💩load of M2C upgrades and truggifed of course👍👍
Famous last words “box stock but maybe I’ll change everything in here” 😂😂😂
Go carbon fiber Chassis brother and don't look back , love to see a Arrma 6s in the family. Love my EXB
I just got my battery and charger and my Typhon will be here soon :)
I feel the same way about the spectrum ESC. It's a little soft on power at the beginning It almost "ramps in slightly" . Very stable flyer too. Not great for backflips with stock tires but fun rc.
Totally agree
I sure hope you build some huge jumps but with some good down slopes for landings. I've never been a fan of launching to the moon only to go splat on the ground.
LOL Splatting on the ground hurts, I do plan on a much bigger jump and landing area once I get the Exoplex done.
I am eyeing the Talion EXB or Kraton EXB 6s. Considering how well that Typhon holds up to hard bashing like that, I am leaning Talion for a little better handling and mid-air control. Nice vid!
The typhon needs small bumps and long stretches. Kraton and talion rock anything but heat up faster and go a little slower
Honestly I think the 3S version with the plastic chassis is more durable. Quite a few folks buy the 3S version and put a 6S power system in them.
Yessssss great to see you got one of these man. Love mine. Although I am curious to see what tires you run on it. I run badlands mx on mine and they hook up great but the factory glue job was bad and then the foams blew out. Wicked video dude.
Upgrades on order 😂👍
I got a arrma typhon 6s and made it 8s and it was fast almost 100 mph
I want one ear plug the diffs put the ride height as high as possible and send it up some huge hills
That controller is fine I have the same one on my karton
Nice AIR 🔥🔥🔥
Now, we need Bill to land his like you do lol
Yeah the stock punch setting is at 4 if you go all the way up to 9
Well, stock esc is toast now. LoL
I like everything about your videos bro 😎👍👍👍
Nice Joe, the Arrma 1/8 lineup is incredible IMO. Have a Kraton EXB 1/8 I don't understand how it keeps going.
I got used typhon v4 with blx 185 and blx motor its crazy fast (on 6S and high speed gearin)
Those Tamiya cross hex spanner are taking over the hobby I have plastic one alloy one and the rest are pig iron, so having so many I have made a couple of dog whistles and a few bottle openers, the rest have invaded every orifice of my hobby storage almost prolific as ants who have taken over but are keeping their heads down until they develop a weapon to enslave us.
LOL YEP!!
Recalibrate the esc. It will give you crazy more power. My Mojave was that way
I have the typhon 3s ...🤘 i imagine 6s !!! To much !!!
Lmmfao...maaaaybe youll just have it fully upgraded the next vid....leave it stock my ass who can do that...lol...nice video man
Go into the esc settings and punch level 9 omg 😲
I will try that
I urge you to change the diff oil! You will trash your diffs with the factory diff oil there is barely any of it.
2nd that
What weight do you use?? I bumped mine up to 30k-100k-30k but it seems a little too much and unforgiving.
@@300WINMAG360 I use 100k front | 300k middle | 100k rear
50k,60k 100k or 200k , 30or 50k
Small environment yes go lighter
Need to tighten them shock springs
I don't understand why people buy buggys and bash them. Same as buying a go-kart and going on a motocross track, ain't gonna end well. On a track these things are MENTAL.
This is a basher than can be raced, the Tekno is a racer that can be bashed, at least thats the way I see it.
Turn the punch up
Oh yah!!! I put the Typhon on a DX5C with some other Arrmas. Rear skid plate/front bumper, that's it. The Typhon is a tank. I'm sure you will prove it!!!
I almost want one now
No lag at all
Punch setting at 3 im pretty sure from factory turn it up to 5. Also Joe try out some Integy Graphene lipos they are 140c
Integy batteries? I gotta look those up
@@ExocagedRC hey Joe I mistyped earlier today. The lipos i wanted you to check out are Turnigy Rapid lipos. They are some serious power house batts
A nice metal spur gear until a small rock gets wedged between the teeth and chassis.
Have you actually had that happen? I was weary of that too at first, now 5 years later, still on stock spur and i'm running 100% in a sand pit so small rocks are basically all i drive on.
@@daver18qc I did twice. I made a small guard out of thin sheet metal and solved that issue.
Wondering if punch setting would help it wheelie
Yeh you have to turn your punch up!
Trust me get chassis braces and then a fan for motor u run the car all day with speed pinion first love my Arrma tough I was mine off with the hose and spray done a little WD 40
Gotta bump up that punch setting
nice vid👍👍👍
Nice
💯🤸♂️👍
That buggy should haul ass 😮😅👍
Turn the punch up for a better throttle response
Yeah it kinda rolls in on power. I gotta mess with it for sure
Got the TLR typhon. Slapped a castle monster x in her. absolute beast on 4s and bat out of hell on 6s (with the ESC tuned to 70% max output)
Sir are this use slipper clutch ?
Do you worry about the temps? Or just run them hard until they shut off and replace when worn out?
Will a 6500 6s battery fit in the typhoon with body on
My plan is to leave this box stock but maybe I'll change all the electronics & tyre's. 😉👍

If you're running 4s, use the speed pinion. It ain't lame then!!
Default punch setting is very low. Turn it up.
Just keep it stock but replace everything? 🤣🤣😂
LoL I haven’t replaced anything…..yet
Are you going to try the new Vitavon motor mount for the Maxx with the 1717 on 6s?
yeah I've got that, hopefully I can get to it today or this week.
@@ExocagedRC cool beans can't wait to see I may install one on mine but I would like to see what an 8th scale motor would look like on there I might try a 4050 1700kv TP what do you think?
These are cool buggies. I kind of want the tlr tuned version. Nice property as well. Do you have a track?
I love my 6s Typhon it is a good flyer but not good a back flips haha
yeah needs more tire for backflips
All you'll need is alum chassis braces and 22t pinion gear and go rip it !
Those tires on that rift on the shelf makes me sick ever time I see them lol I can’t find a set anywhere
They are hard to find, I think he just got a shipment in but they sold already.
If you ever run across a set get them an I’ll buy them for sure
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IT IS POSSIBLE TO FIT AND USE A CONNECTOR TO USE TRAXXAS 3s lipos that I use for my e revo vxl?
Will it be vitavon or m2c this time??!
👍
👋🙂👍
That was an awesome first run Joe. A friend of mine has the 3s Typhoon but that 6s is on a different league. When you said tune the diffs up a bit, what do you have in mind? Keep up the great work mate 👌
thicker center diff oil, maybe thicker in the axles too, for bashing purposes.
@@ExocagedRC ah yeah cool, still pretty good out of the box but i guess there's always room for improvement. 👌
In about three to four hundred meters range
Vitavon on that rig 😆 M2c all day for that rig! Exo if you do upgrades please go M2c. Would love to know your thoughts on M2c beefcake rig 💯
I've got the M2c on the Outcast 8s and its awesome
does the esc have 1 connector or 2
One for battery and one for receiver
@@ExocagedRC so i can run a 6s pack without a jumper?
I c a m2c chassis coming soon
LOL very possible!!
nxx muscle fan for 30 bucks caant beat em i lost about 30 degrees on average when i installed mine coz when you get in grass those temps will deffo start climbing

@@ExocagedRC more SBR Vitavon then! Big fan 🤜🏽
And to think, the TLR Tuned Typhon may be better than this one😱🤔Jesus it gets high up there.
I have a buddy that may get the TLR Typhon, I don’t need it myself but if he does he said I can review it.
First
Hey I just picked up a scx10 iii gladiator! What mods should I do? I was looking at the hobby wind fusion.
