Typhon How to get more speed out of typhon 3s

[mattloaf]

Hey guys what are some things I can do to get some more speed out of my 3s typhon without changing motor and esc. Currently I have replaced the 15t pinion with the 20t and that’s as far as my knowledge goes on what else to do. I really want to break 65mph with it and am currently at a personal best of 59mph.

You can go up to a 26t pinion and also what brand, size and c rating is your lipo as that can make a huge difference also.

Currently have the spectrum 100c 5000mah.

what kind of heat up on the motor and esc will I get with the 26t?

I ran my typhon 3s (V2) with a 27t pinion and SMC graphene. Hit 67mph. Temps were okay but I was being cautious and checking it after each run while avoiding stop & go.

It will definitely get hot if your doing more than a pass or two as it is a speed run pinion and not made to bash with. I don't have any experience with the Spektrum packs but should be ok. Now a good speed run pack that would almost guarantee more speed would be a CNHL, Turnigy or SMC pack that are made for speed runs. But I wouldn't suggest putting out the extra cash unless you plan to get serious about speed runs. As I said 26t should get you to the 65mph your looking for. Also remember the slower and smoother you pull your throttle the last 25% to full throttle helps tremendously as well.
