WITH A 46T SPUR GEAR? AND A CASTLE 1717 1650KV COMBO? WITH 26/46 GEARING
i watched a video on youtube the person in the video was running a castle creation mmx8s esc with a hobbywing 4985b1650kv motor with 23/46 gearing and exb differentials in the front and rear he was able to get the buggy up to 62mph i want to turn my typhon to a off road speed basher 66mph or 67mph will be good enough for me he truggified the typhon alsoI guess a better question would be what are you trying to achieve?? If your after a speed, adjust gearing to compensate and get to your goal. If it’s not a question of breakage or durability, there’s no reason at all to switch to an EXB diff…
Truggified typhons are fun. I have one but I'm using mojave stock tires. mmx8s + tp 4060cm 2080kv. I actually broke a sun gear in a diff with this setup so if you plan on going even bigger tires, using exb diffs will be a good idea.i watched a video on youtube the person in the video was running a castle creation mmx8s esc with a hobbywing 4985b1650kv motor with 23/46 gearing and exb differentials in the front and rear he was able to get the buggy up to 62mph i want to turn my typhon to a off road speed basher 66mph or 67mph will be good enough for me he truggified the typhon also
the guy in the video got the typhon up to 62mph and he said that he could have gotten the speed higher but he ran out of room and he could not give the typhon full throttleI run a MMX8S and 1717 1260kv in a truggified Typhon that has regular V5 Kraton diffs (43/10),with the belted Katars from the Talion, and high 50'smph is easy... im running 20/46 and it would handle 24/46 no problem, so your 65mph goal is very doable
You’ll never actually see 4.2V from your batteries under load. I’d change that setting to the minimum. 3.75V if I remember correctly. Will be closer to reality.Im running Stock Typhon Difs in a LWB Kraphon. I have a XLWB chassis coming (2" longer than Kraton) just so I can see if I can get higher throttle by keeping the front wheels on the ground more.
There are so many videos. So many variables.
Im shopping for Dif's too.
I Love the sound of straight-cut gears that the Typhon has. But the spiral cut ones in the Kraton Difs handle power better but who cares. The Typhon DIfs at 43/13 will make it easier to go faster on pavement, I believe. But not handle loads as well as the Kraton 43/10.
Then there are the LSD GP4 Difs which are EXB.
