httuner TLR Typhon Street Basher Build

[httuner]

This is my first roller build; decided it was time to build something absolutely fun and insane. I first saw the TLR Typhon a year ago and always wanted one but I started my RC journey with a simple 4x4 Mega Senton which I turned brushless after a few weeks of overworking the brushed setup killing it. I lost interest and never took on R/C-ing over the winter.

This year decided I'd build the TLR Typhon I wanted.
I got a lot of ideas from here so figured I'd post mine so others may use these ideas for their build.
I recently just bought a limitless V1 to build so for now the Typhon is done; I think I enjoy the process more than actually running the car.

Alignment Setup

So far it tracks good and straight; I'd have to play with it more to determine better alignment for tire wear and drivability; This car was never intended to be a speed runner but rather a parking lot tarmac basher and so far I love it.

Thanks for stopping by!
More to come as I find more ideas of what to do to it.

I kept adding more to it as I progress into my RC habit. I found the Hots racing aluminum Diff housing to wear excessively where the pin goes through. So I opt for the arrma option, built with a Robinson Racing 40T spur and Mugen output cups since the Arrma cups would wobble a lot.

Ever since Scorch came out with their hubs I ditch the Hots Racing hubs and went with the scorch pillow balls too.

Lots of extra goodies as I make things better. For now I’m satisfied with it.

is the Mugen cup direct fit with arrma diff? What part number you use?

Direct Fit; I can't remember the part# to be exact. It's been a while and I've stepped away from R/C
