Forewarning: This is a very plain and boring build.
Bought a Typhon 6S V5 as my first Arrma car. Had a few quality control / poor factory assembly issues yet have overcome these hindrances, understand the car better, made some improvements along the way and now love driving this steroid induced beast.
What I did:
My near future plans (still waiting for parts to arrive) are fitting Duratrax Lockup tyres, the Basherqueen carbon fiber set and the blue Typhon body as I prefer the blue colour scheme over red.
Nothing drastic but man she drives so much nicer now than she did out of the box. Kind of a semi EXB Typhon now. Looks great, performs great, I'm happy.

What I did:
- Filled near empty diffs with factory specified oil. 7K, 10K, 7K.
- Rebuilt and oiled shocks.
- Corrected loose pinion mesh.
- Fitted EXB chassis, front and rear chassis braces and spacers, front suspension mount brace.
- Obligatory toe, servo, endpoint etc adjustments, tightening of screws etc. Bound to my DX5C.
