Typhon Bodies for Typhon

[mikelangelo]

I see that the Arrma Typhon body (which I REALLY like) is out of stock everywhere. Anyone know what other bodies will fit the Typhon well?

Proline preferred...but will look at any brand...

@mikelangelo I'm not sure of any replacement bodies for the Arrma Tyhon but know you can get pre-painted Typhon bodies here.

 

[mikelangelo]

Thanks, @WoodiE. I LOVE the Typhon body shape, but I want a unique paint job. At my track there are a handful of us that race Typhons and they all look the same. I'm trying to go custom with my colors!

I'm sorry... I should have been more clear (pun intended), I'm trying to find the clear body... not the prepainted kind.

why don't you use rc nitro gas and remove the paint and paint it yourself. that's what I did to mine

Does that work??!!! Can you post picture? Last time i tried to remove paint from lexan body, the body was ruined (I forgot what solved I used, but it messed up the body something fierce.)

Thanks!

Pic when i first painted it. It didnt look right with white white rims

It looks a lot better with bright green wheels

Very cool, I may have to wash my body too! Did you do a quick splash, or let it soak?

I used a green scrubby sponge and let it soak for a sec and then scru b with the green side of the sponge it took me about an hour to do the typhon and an hour and a half for my kraton body. Just go slow and work your way out

I had to try... =)

I used carb cleaner and a toothbrush. It even cleaned off the shoegoo... =)

Can the 6s body fit a 3s?

Can the 6s body fit a 3s?

The 2 bodies aren't the same or interchangeable.
I guess you could modify and cut up the 6s body to fit on the 3s but it's about an inch wider so the 3s body would be too narrow to fit the 6s platform.

 

[Warriator]

Ok.
Thx. Just have to wait till arrma releases more stuff for 3s.

Right I want a clear body. Might have to experiment.

I have unbreakable typhon body in black with green decals - tomorrow I will find it in my “RC storage” just to show the idea
