Pretty good result for a brand new buggy you just got that is not already setup for your track conditions. I enjoyed the video a lot, thanks for putting in the effort to test this in a race environment.
Thanks! Yup it’s hard to be the first one to chase a set-up and with the limited track time, the result was decent. This buggy will be a contender for sure.
I agree. Thanks for the honest unboxing and track testing. Looks like a nice looking box build/kit for the beginner that wants to race. If anything should be a awesome basher.
Hi love your channel. I watch you before I buy any RC car and trucks. I did get the Typhon tlr handles good. That servo need new one with speed. I love going to RC madness. But it 2hrs away from me. So when I go i spend the whole day there. Thank you for the great reviews
Just want to say damn man!!! You got some crazy crazy good handling skills around the track. I take it you have a lot of experience with RC cars. Great job I actually am looking at that buggy right now to buy. Only because my friend has the Typhon 3S and I just want something that’s gonna blow his shit out of the water lol anyways, great video. Hope to see more😊 Andre from Boston, Massachusetts
I love the Typhon line of buggies , have all three. Theres no doubt im going to add this one to the collection . Unfortunately up here in the great white north , Canada , things just seem to trickle across the border slowly . Havent seen or heard of any Canadian dealers stocking them or when they will . If any of you RC enthusiast have a lead , let me know
I wouldn't consider it to be that well priced for what you're getting. By the time you're done you've spent almost as much as you would on some of the cheaper full-on race kits. This really should have been an RTR with some basic but good quality running gear.
Did you ever figure out how to tune the rear? Different shock oil set up? Different springs. I'm about to pick one up and would like some advice on that rear set up. TYIA.
Good race, I notice that no one seems to runs the Badlands tires. Why is that and do you have any reviews for the something other than stock shocks? I am running stock shocks, but have already ordered Prolines for my Senton 3sBLX and was curious if you have used Proline shocks before?
Thanks to this video I learned I can use rc8 hinge pins on my busted TLR. Thank you so much. Did you have to modify the rc8 hinge pins at all or was it plug and play?
I'm typically a basher, but I do like tgis style of buggy. I had the 3s RTR Typhon for a couple of years and started having a lot of issues with it. I decided to replace it with the TLR Tuned Typhon and swapped the electronics (Spektrum 130A ESC with 1900kv motor combo and Spektrum 652 Servo). I've only had one battery through it so far, but I'm pretty impressed. Will need to learn how to tune it though. Center diff seems rather open, probably could use some thicker diff fluid. Maybe it's supposed to be that way and I'm just not used to it?
thanks for the vid! just amazed you took it out for a proper race just after a few runs with it. car looks decent on the main, slightly loose on the rear end. Got mine preordered, no plans to race it yet but just fun days out on the track. Would appreciate if you could share the description of the swing arm that broke with the hinge pin so newbie folk like me can have them on hand when things go wrong. appreciate the vid and keep them coming!
Do you have a recommended settings for the Typhon on the track? I have been to my local track watch guys rip their car and let them drive mine. They say is very unpredictable and wants to push through all the corners and is skating everywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you sir!
Cool video, i am planning to get one of those, just for some amateur racing, for a fun days with friends at a local track. Maybe some little bashing. Dont wanna spends alot money on a race kit. Your video helps alot. Part suport for arrmas is good here in Lithuania, so i gues this is an optimal buggy for me. This one is 400Eur here, and when i looked at, for example, Tekno, it is over 600Eur in my country. I see this buggy has alot tuning options, maybe you can give me some pointers on what is most important (tyres ofcourse)?
I got one but i don't race. I just plan on using it for mild bashing and speed runs. Kind of like what I do with my regular 6s typhon. I'm just an rc addict so naturally I have to buy every new release 😂
Considering buying this after years out of the hobby. Question what else would definitely be a better 1/8 scale buggy if I want to race it next year. Currently looking at deal for this with Hobbywing XR8 plus 4274 2250KV combo and running 4S not 6S. Any advice or serious alternatives appreciated.
I've just got the Typhon RTR and love the Axis body, does it effect battery height or fitment at all? I had to cut side rail off my battery holder to fit my 2x 3S softcases and it just bulges out side a tiny amount, don't wanna run risk of not getting this body to fit
X-ray are about the best going in my opinion nice. Yes they do look like the Durango. I bought one to play with (TLR Typhon) and it’s a blast it handles so well compared to its rtr counterpart. So there is definitely an improvement. I’d like to try the Tekno EB48 2.0 next. But I also love Kyosho buggies so the MP10e kit is in my radar for a winter build
ARRMA is actually what became of Team Durango. They got out of racing to focus on entry level and bashing-focused RTRs. This is basically their attempt at getting back into racing vehicles at a club level.
Great video I've got the TLR and was looking at getting the prol ne axis body. How have you found it compared to stock body, does it give better aero Cheers👍
Any decent preforming RTR race buggies? I’d love this monster but idk... it’ll be my first car specifically for dirt track racing so I’d prefer something with included electronics, something to get me used to the feel of all my settings and beginner tuning without spending $1,000 after electronics. Just looking for something specifically designed to be tuned and raced as if it were a top notch custom buggy. Usually those rollers have an insane degree of fine suspension tuning, much like this typhon
On the electric side the Serpent SRX8-E RTR is the only racing-focused RTR in the 1/8th scale class. You would be allowed to run the Typhon 6S RTR as long as you run a 4S battery but it's not exactly the best handling car due to how its suspension is set up more for bashing. The Kyosho RTRs are decent for just driving around but crap for racing without some serious work. For nitro, it's a similar story - one good RTR for racing and that's it. This time it's the Losi 8ight RTR, which is loosely based on the 8ight 3.0 with some features brought in from the 8ight-X. Again, Kyosho kinda drops the ball with their RTRs.
I guess the question is: for the casual racer getting into the racing side of the hobby. Is it worth spending $425 on this as a roller - that you’d then have to add electronics too. Which would be around + $350 or so with a low end but decent remote/Reciever combo. Totalling about $900-1000 Or would it be more cost effective to just buy a Arrma Typhon 6S for $550 and just throw $200 worth of race grade parts at it?
I am not sure the Typhon 6S will run on a 2S out of the box, just FYI. Mine would only run a 3S (Typhon 6S V5 with Spektrum ESC) at minimum, despite manual saying 4S is the minimum requirement. And I say get into the hobby as cheap as you can for now. Why go off the deep end without getting your feet wet? Experience and stick time are more important than anything else when getting started racing.
@@Oni76 do you guys race 1/8 scale Buggies/truggies on 2s ? All the tracks around me are 4s limited (although some guys do run 3s) The only classes in my local tracks that are limited to 2s are 1/10 scale. (Buggies & Short course trucks)
@@SG-wj2qj we run 2S for the 1/10th scale like SCT, and 4S for all the 1/8 scale (Buggy, Truggy). It honestly sounds like you'd be better served with a 1/10th buggy then if that's what is local. I did base part of my purchase on what was local to race, as in no point in having a car that can't be run unless I want to travel far (i.e., there are no 2WD classes presently due to lack of demand and since off-road, terrain is much better suited to 4WD).
I just appreciate the build quality and adjustability. I own a VW sandrail and think this would be fun to take to the sand dunes and if my rail breaks I still have something to play with. Nice racing and dial up info. Thanks
I had been looking forward to this buggy and I have to say .... that wasnt a big crash and was surprised that the front end broke! I have racing buggies from other brands that would survive that not to mention my bashing typhon and senton would have survived that crash too because I have had worse crash in them than that. Dialing in setup and handling is one thing (it didnt look planted) but that can be sorted out with time but DNF is something completely different. There are many other brands of racing buggies out there to chose from so I am a little hesitant about getting the TLR. Will stick to bashers from arrma for now.
Would the following be a fair summary of the Typhon range in comparison? - 3S: fast, lightweight, very nimble for general use, not so great for track racing - 6S: extra-fast, much heavier, less nimble for general use, better for track racing - TLR: best of both worlds, i.e. extra-fast, lighter than 6S and nimble for all uses
I know this is 2 years later but I'm going to order a tlr typhon roller and swap my electronics into it for a little club racing this year. Buggy is fun as long as you don't try to get too serious 😂
I'm considering getting it, along with the Pro-Line body. I'd also probably be racing it in the E-buggy Lite class. However, since our local track is an indoor track, and carpet, I'd need to be rubbing a 4000kv motor on 2S, along with different tires. I can focus out the ESC & motor...but, having never raced 1/8 buggy (especially on carpet), what would be the best suggestions/recommendations for tires? Again, indoor, gray carpet.
It wasn’t the first use. I took this out bashing and did a video on it. Then I took it racing. Hitting something at the right angle will break a part. Even in crawling.
Looks good, but really dissapointed about that A-arm breaking and pin bending. My losi 8ight 2.0 EU had way bigger crashes than that and takes it like a champ.
totally agree. Those who defend the breakage DNF for a simple crash like that do not race bec imagine a mistake during a race (which is easy enough to make) and at race speed like that and you end up with a DNF. That is not good not good at all.
@@DeRock401 and for those of us that race and also bash plus blast we know every crash is different but if you are honest, you will be disappointed that a crash like that broke the front. Wouldn't you be? lol. All we are saying is play it straight and frank. Call it for what it is and when arrma improves it we all benefit instead of pretending the problem isn't there and everyone who buys it suffer and those who wants to buy it hesitate and buy something else.
Thanks for the video. I have created a track in one of my fields and been messing with the Traxxas cars my sons and I have. Nice to see there is another car out there that may not break the bank for those of us just learning
Seems like it handles decently well out of the box but the lack of adjustability REALLY hurts it and it has some quality issues. As a result there's really not a reason to pick it over any of the racing kits, you end up spending close to the same amount getting it ready for the track anyway. It's nice that there's finally a club-level racer on the market again but it would better serve that role if it was an RTR.
@@dirtrider88 By definition, not having the electronics makes it a roller, not an RTR. Anyway, even though the price is lower than most racing kits, the problem is that this buggy exists in a non-existent market segment. The RTR guys aren't going to step up to this, it doesn't really appeal to hard-core racers, and entry-level racers are going to gravitate towards the cheaper short-course classes.
Pretty good result for a brand new buggy you just got that is not already setup for your track conditions. I enjoyed the video a lot, thanks for putting in the effort to test this in a race environment.

oooh man! such a great episode! the punch on that guy looks fantastic into the jumps. the shocks look extremely dialed in.
Looks like the hinge pins could do to be stronger. It looks like the hinge pin bending is what caused the rest of the damage.
I think it's the stupid pillow ball setup on the front. Look at the Losi buggy, they don't use that pillow ball crap.

Cool buggy, it should of come with Proline body and tyres though
no way, the stock body looks so cool, everything else looks like a lego block, i agree with you on the tyres tho
I guess the Team Associated hinge pin would work considering that both they and Durango pretty much went right after the Mugen design
A positive algorithmic comment!👍
will the LitRC c&d block for the 8ight cars work on this, or are they different
where did you get that white body for that typhoon? that looks cool!
what shock oil weight are yo using?

Try 3000 cst oil in reardiff. maybe try move shock 1 hole in on rear shocktower. Camberlink 1 more up. Softer rear swaybar.
Those are some items on my to try list. I was making little changes at a time at the track. Looking forward to more wheel time with it!
I’d advise playing with the active caster, it’s a very powerful setting. If you want to tame the car try reducing active caster.
What charger were you using? I have everything except a charger and battery and my buggy hits the track. Thanks.
Have mine pre-ordered
Nice! Enjoy it!

Would this be a Adam Drake contender?
In my experience with the normal Typhon, it helps to raise (not lower) the rear roll center to make the rear more planted.
How you do that?
What battery do you run in it on the track?
4s, and it's a rules requirement.
like the buggy will be doing some tuning when mines comes in
Would the following be a fair summary of the Typhon range in comparison?
- 3S: fast, lightweight, very nimble for general use, not so great for track racing
- 6S: extra-fast, much heavier, less nimble for general use, better for track racing
- TLR: best of both worlds, i.e. extra-fast, lighter than 6S and nimble for all uses
Waiting on mine
Try a longer rear link to keep the rear more under control in the corners.
Did that.
Good showing for a "basher/race" buggy 👍 I need racer stuff like this for sure!
