Typhon 12 year old rig I picked up in a package deal

[Jeppyjep]

Picked this Duratrax up in a package deal I bought . It came out 12 years ago . I went threw it and put a specktrum 150 and a 2050 combo in it I had laying around new tires . Went to the track in CT RC madness and I absolutely love it . Such a fun rig a little heavy but super fun

From what I remember that buggy wasn't very durable so be careful.

After lock tightening every friggin Allan it’s been good , I’ve been doing some trial and error last 2 months the only thing that’s happens is bolts coming loose . After running it today it was good . It’s definitely 100% not a basher but super fun track car and with that combo it’s fun . It had an old 2200 kv onyx motor and an off brand hobby wing 120 amp esc in it . the 150 2050 specktrum combo woke it up . I did the diffs to and there not split diffs lol so that was fun lol

Yeah more of a track car than a basher for sure. The stock front hubs are just cast pot metal (they make 7075 upgrade ones https://www.horizonhobby.com/product/machined-knuckle-arm-aluminum-front-7075-2-835/DTXC8180.html) the shock towers can bend do to them only being 3mm and the shock shafts can bend on landings.
