Typhon Finally Completed the V1 Typhon, I call it the "TLR-Lite"

[feedle]

Been a long time since I've posted here, but I figured I'd share my "TLR-Lite" V1 Typhon 6s I've been working on since November of 2022. I adopted it as a stock roller chassis with a body, I paid too much for it but I didn't realize at the time that it was a V1.

Here's an image of it when it was first built, November 28th.
Castle 1515, 17t pinion, Castle Mamba X, Amazon 35kg servo. Basically everything was stock. Was using junk tires though.

This was on new years day, lovin' how clean the body was

Here's what it looks like now

My "indestructible" wing mount

And now, now! Hobbywing 4278 G2, Hobbywing Max8 G2, 15t pinion, the same damn amazon servo (betu 35kg), TLR 8IGHT XE shocks, V5 plastics (minus arms), TLR Chassis, steering rack, and wing, RPM Kraton 6s Bumper, Jetko Tomahawk Belted Buggy Tires, Aluminum Chassis braces, Hot Racing Motor Mount and Diff Case.

Also, don't know how this happened, was driving it normally when it happened. Might've cracked from the nuts jumps though lol, but just happened to break while normally driving.

There's no such thing as V5 Arms for the Typhon. They carried over for years last I heard. And are Identical to the Lim/Infr. arms. Part numbers and all.
Just some trivia.

those arms goes way way back. to the Durango DEX8 days. released in 2005. it's the same arms since then. maybe the plastic was changed but the mold looks to be exactly the same

The Rear arm mud guards and the Uprights/hubs are also carry overs from the DEX8. There is absolutely Nothing about this TLRT Typhon that is Really Team Losi about it.... Not even a close resemblence.
Except for the TLR Tuned branding. It's just a HH Marketting thing, and HH can do that since they also own Team Losi.
