Great information. The pivot ball alteration look like the biggest challenge. I love how you removed the shock towers as a complete assembly. Super helpful. Thanks bunches ...
You're welcome! Excellent video. Emphasizing checking for binding is an important point. These are the mods that made it possible to hit my ramp with speed as well.
It's all fun and games until we break the shit out of our cars and have to replace parts! No wait, that's part of the fun! Thanks for the video! Excellent content!
Mention all you like! HAHA. Thanx, gives me a chance to think of what id like to say and stumble a little less on my words…hoping it sounds natural all the same. Appreciate you bein’ here man.
Dude, it s almost not any fun with my Granite! Stones are relentless. We ll have to hook up there sometime, I m usually with my kids…philborrelli@hotmail.com
@@phillybrc diff driver for the car......you could be the camera guy lol. J/k bro. Thanks for sharing. Im gonna subscribe to your channel now. Thanks again Bud.
Omg! Great video! I have so many cars I’ve had to trial and error create fixes. I modified my 3 s line as well. I did almost the identical fix. Used traxxas ends with metal traxxas pivot balls. I’m shocked Arrma put any car out with that much slop. Plastic pivot balls is a joke! 👍💯
@@phillybrc Absolutely! Your like me, make it right. No matter what you gotta do! Very good video for that car. Besides your tricks, a lot of first time rc owners get the 3s line. It will be very informative! 👍
Awesome video! I'm currently tuning up my Typhon 3s and this is just what I need to do. What do you think about replacing the plastic bell crank with an aluminum one from gpm or hot racing?
Ya, I ve only heard good things about the hot racing bellcrank. Stay away form the hot racing servo saver though lol. Let me know how this mod works for you. I m still using it. Thanx for watching!
On my older blue senton I took off the servo saver for a solid servo arm.. it helped a lot..I plan on doing the same on my red senton and big rock and adding shims where needed along with the metal c hubs
hi Phil what brand of 17mm offset hexes you reccomend for typhon 3s? dont want to much offset. some of the grp tires onroad can sit real close to hubs!
HI! Honestly i think they are quite similar to each other. For the money, I think the Hot Racing make good sense. If they were for bashing and you had extra money, I would go with M2C. Thanks for watchin!
Hey what bumper did u put on that thing? I hacked a 6s one on mine cuz i couldn't find one for the typhon 3s lol I still need one fory nephew's too tho cuz he's brutal on that thing and the original bumper ( if u wanna call it that ) doesn't do shht. Tia

Thanx. That is always my approach. I remove the whole assembly and get it out of the way! Works for me! Appreciate you dude.
You're welcome! Excellent video. Emphasizing checking for binding is an important point. These are the mods that made it possible to hit my ramp with speed as well.
Thanx for your help! I can add the link to your channel if you like…i wanted to ask you first.
@@phillybrc Sure, thanks for the mention.
@@tyrellcorp2118 Thank you man.

Haha, It WASN T possible before this mod! Thanx Matt

Hahaha, it s satisfying isn t it? For you anyway haha. Right on. Thanx brother.

Thanks for the video and the part number. I just did the shimming and it turned out great.
Awesome man, thanx for watchin!
Thank you for this.
It definitely tightened up the steering.
SWEET!! Yep, it s a solid, simple mod! Thanx for watchin’
Nice vid and upgrade. I will definitely try this upgrade. Bash on!!
Give it a whirl! Very effective! Thanx alot
Thank you! This video helped me out great!!
Awesome, thanx for watching
Another great vid. I know it's been mentioned the commentary over the video is top notch.
Mention all you like! HAHA. Thanx, gives me a chance to think of what id like to say and stumble a little less on my words…hoping it sounds natural all the same. Appreciate you bein’ here man.
@@phillybrc I've read the Hot Racing bell crank is not always a good upgrade. Some like it and some don't.
@@wescat2 Same. I hear it isn t spectacular. This is more effective. Thanx !
Nice work man, great Upgrades 👍🏽
THANX MAN!!
Man that was a nasty crash! Poor typhon! I’m still gonna get one! That might be my next arrma!
No regrets! It s an animal!! You should do it. Thanx.
@Vape N Clash You could be right, they are very tough machines that are very well built. I d love to drive one.
Love this video! As always you have great vids 👍
Thanx!! Hope these videos get you through your RC modifications!!
Another great video! Thanks!
Hey, Thanx Chris! Thanx for bein’ here man.
you have good channel. big like from Xpert
THANX XPERT!!
flying car, cool.
HAHA!!
Thanks
You re welcome! Thanx to you
Lol that's one of my favorite local spots to take my typhon out, what are the odds of that haha
No kidding! We can have a bash sometime.
philborrelli@hotmail.com
We should call that spot the rice rd rocket pocket!
@@peterfryer6915 LOVE IT! I’m in! Except I hear it won’be there long….new housing perhaps. They bash it before it happens!
Anyone that owns a 3s arrma should be subbed
That s truly a huge compliment, THANK YOU! Share the link with your RC crew perhaps. Thanx for the support.👍🏻
I rip my Senton in that spot! Lots of gravel sneaks into my steering but my buddies typhon takes the stones like a champ.
Dude, it s almost not any fun with my Granite! Stones are relentless. We ll have to hook up there sometime, I m usually with my kids…philborrelli@hotmail.com
Ya we tried cutting up a sponge to plug the spots the stones get in but the sponge was putting resistance on my steering mechanisms and fried my servo
@@peterfryer6915 I saw a video showing that…i was skeptical. Good to see for yourself though.
perfect job mate
keep it up bro👌
Thanx! Appreciate that!
Daaaang Philly, you should try the diff driver mod. Your typhon would definitely benefit from it. Lol
Diff driver mod??…As in, get a differnt driver of the car? Lol
@@phillybrc diff driver for the car......you could be the camera guy lol. J/k bro. Thanks for sharing. Im gonna subscribe to your channel now. Thanks again Bud.

@@phillybrc 👊🏆💯
Great video,,,, as always great explanation!!!…. Could I add these to my senton?
Sorry I missed this man!!! Yes! You can. Thanx for watching.
I may have too try this trick as I’m trying to upgrade the servo on my granite v3
Give it a shot! I can see an improvement. Thanx

Very good info..I shim my Tamiya buggies
On my older blue senton I took off the servo saver for a solid servo arm.. it helped a lot..I plan on doing the same on my red senton and big rock and adding shims where needed along with the metal c hubs
@@philthyco1 Oh really? I ve been curious as to how a servo horn would make difference. But how do servos hold up to bashing without a saver?
@@phillybrc Steering feel is more direct..Held up fine for me but I don't send it big lol
@@philthyco1 I hear ya, i m lookin to go big! HAHA. I will try it one day when i get some time. Thanx dude.
@@phillybrc Yea I jump 15-25 feet ..Im talking about rc dude 81 and Rich Duperbash big though lol

@@phillybrc how much extra offset do the hot racing hexes give compared to stalk?
You can get different sizes , I believe most common size is 5mm on each side.
Hey what bumper did u put on that thing? I hacked a 6s one on mine cuz i couldn't find one for the typhon 3s lol
I still need one fory nephew's too tho cuz he's brutal on that thing and the original bumper ( if u wanna call it that ) doesn't do shht. Tia
The one in this video is a 3s senton bumper, although beefy, it s not durable. I ve since gone to the Granite bumper.
I put a Hot Racing one I read good things about it but u think I can shims on that? It’s a aluminum one..
I heard they re pretty good but I’m cheap. There is likley still room for improvement, you can try to add shims there as well.
isn t there slop in the steering rods going into the bellcrank that adds to sloppy steering to??
Yes. Watch Part 1! ARRMA 3S UPGRADES: RID 3s STEERING SLOP WITH TRAXXAS METAL PIVOT BALLS

@@phillybrc my mistake sorry!
@@43rocket Oh man. no worries. thanx for tuning in!
does this help for reverse driving to because these 3s arrmas sure wobble in reverse.
No it doesn t help. Do you drive in reverse for long periods of time?
What Driver are you using. I need a new one
I use MIP hex bits and hex hand-tools from Amazon. They ve been great, link is in sescription. Thanx
How's it held up after 2 years ?
Honestly, excellent. Nothing wrong with the plastic bellcrank, for my purposes anyway. Give it a shot, it s cheap! Let me know how uou make out. Thanx
RIP Typhon lol
It was nice while it lasted! Haha
