Typhon Just picked up a Typhon roller

[IRONWORKER]

Came across a NIB Typhon roller on Marketplace for $300. This will be the 1st buggy I’ve had since the 90s!

I’m stoked…. Thinking about either a Rally car build for mostly on road use or a truggiesh build with Outcast hubs & some meaty 2.8s.

Nice score! You should start a Build thread.

Congrats on good deal!!

Keep us updated

I’ve been thinking of do a rally myself

I kinda want a Typhon myself. Good for you. Update us.

Excellent find at a decent price no less. Great pick for an Arrma, no doubt. My TLRT Roller is awesome. One of my fav Arrma's. Running on 4s packs is all you need with a Typhon. It's a light chassis and quite well balanced with only 4s packs. 4s packs makes it shine and easy to drive. Drivetrain being more durable.
Many do run 6s packs. I personally didn't like it however. We all drive differently. If just dedicated speed running, 6s packs is the way to go however.

May have to snag or build another to do both options I used a delta plastik body for my on road. I swapped to senton arms and drive shafts with infraction towers/shocks to get it low for an on road body and kinda did my own thing for the body mounts. I did the belted 2.8's on another too.

I would recommend anyone just getting into serious RC electric cars to start with this combination. It can quickly determine if you want to stunt-bash, course race, or speed run/drag race. No other platform will do them all well with minimal modification like the typhon.

Hadn’t even been opened!

That's a nice roller. What are you gonna put in it?

220a ztw & a 2000kv 4282 leo…… That’s the lightest 6s set up i have

I have a 2023 6S BLX I would part with. Hasn't even had a full battery through it.

How much? Send a pic?
