Build Thread Tim's Arrma Typhon 6S Build

[trboyden]

What the heck, how about I start a build thread. Fairly meager start, but I got my chassis kit and a TLR body. Going for a patriotic theme.

Gonna need a lot more, but that's a start!

Looks like it's gonna come out sweet. .

Can't wait to see how this comes out

Did a print of some front arms from Dolphin348 on Thingiverse. Think they came out pretty good. Probably will just use for measurement/fit up, but I might give them a go. Came out really solid using Slant3D ABS filament in blue. Five perimeters, five shells, 25% honeycomb infill.

Those will break faster than you can shake a stick.

Those will break faster than you can shake a stick.

How fast is that, in real time? To shake a stick? 39sec? 2min? Need metrics on this stick-shake quantum time.

 

[Luke66]

I'm a fast stick shaker, so about 3-5 seconds.

With a huge thanks to Jennys RC, they helped me put a big dent in the part deficit department.

That is gonna look killer. .

Don't think it will break.

Naw man. 3D printed stuff breaks. Fast. It's most likely not gonna last.

Made some decent progress on the build tonight. Still waiting for some more parts to come in such as the swing arm mounts. Also contributed a 3D model to the 3D parts thread for the rear swing arm in case someone needs one in a pinch.

 

[Luke66]

Lookin good!

So, unfortunately, life got in the way of finishing this project sooner and it took a long time to get all the right parts. But here is my completed build.

• Arrma 6S BLS Chassis
• Arrma 6S TLR Body
• DBOOTS EXABYTE pre-mounted tires and wheels
• GPM Dual-Rate Shocks front and rear
• Arrma 6S TLR shock towers
• Rocket RC Supersonic 4268 Motor 2450kv
• Rocket RC Supersonic 160A ESC
• 9imod 40kg Brushless Servo
• DumboRC X6FG Receiver

Just need to pick up a couple 4S and 6S batteries.
