In this video I check out the new V5 Arrma Typhon 6S with all new electronics and redesigned features. This is definitely one of the most fun
RC's I have driven! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
63 mph on stock gear and then with options pinion that included went 74. Very impressive buggy so far!
I agree dude I hate bashing and killing my RCs they are NOT NOT fun to fix ! They have a saying “your not having fun unless u break something “! Hell no !!! And lastly waiting for parts sucks 🤦🏻♂️
Right , lol l that’s a bunch of crap . Sometimes it’s fun if it’s not an electronics problem or having to disassemble the whole RC for 3 diffs . Some cars it’s just better to get another
You forgot to yell Four before you took that divot out of the yard lol 🤣😂👏👍
No RC reviewers ever talk about 'feel'. I grew up racing competitively and feel is where 90% of the enjoyment comes from for me even with bashers.
Arrma's have the best feel of any basher out there. Most other brands have literally zero feel whatsoever, so that driving them is no different than just watching someone else drive them. If I can't make the car do exactly what I want it to, when I want it to, I'm not driving it. Typhon is one of Arrma's best. 👍
yep, same for me with the xmaxx. I dont feel like im driving this thing exactly as you said! My outcast 6s feels sooo good
Not everyone has the skill of RCdude81 or Rich Dubberbash, those guys are top level bashes. We need input from all skill level drivers, videos like this help grow the hobby cause it shows what most of us are comfortable and capable of doin. Great review 😎🇺🇸
Lol, nice way of calling him a casual 😅
You can tell you had a blast. Love it. My son got his first Arrma for his birthday and I love how much fun he has with it.
Man I gave you a like just because it was nice to see someone so stoked about getting a new car. Excellent stuff.
Thanks!
What a wonderful video, great to see you having so much fun. Keep doing what your doing. Thanks for sharing. John
Another Arrma for the traxxas guy? This is gonna be a good year!
My purchase last year was the E-revo or this buggy! Got the Revo...still want the Typhon!
I have rustler 4x4 vxl and i think arrma rc cars ARE DOMINATING!!!
We don’t have to take sides. Both companies make awesome RCs.
@@rsoul7282 i agree with you !!
This is the old. Model. Very tufff
After this video, I went out and bought one... and dude... it screams! Thanks for the demo and review!!!
Thats awesome! Its one of my favorite RC's
hey been watching your vids for a while now. you made another great one. thank you man!! i have both traxxas and arrma and the typhon is a straight up beast .thanks again i cant wait to check back with your channel !!
Thanks!
Great Choice, I have the 3s and upgraded to run 4s. its such a Great RC. Awesome start to the New Year!
Great video! I was not expecting a Typhon on your channel at all. However, I was certain that you will get a Talion. You really surprised there.
Really? Did you not see his video when he said he would buy a typhon.
You have a gorgeous house and property. That's exactly how I wanna be one day a nice house with privacy. Keep up the good work. Love your excitement
Thanks!
He has a bashing playground right out the door. Like how sick is that?
Getting any closer to the sweet house ?
@@Hungrybird474 no sir lol still slaving 7 days a week just to live paycheck to paycheck it's hard out here
My new favorite RC CZcamsr, you drive them the same way I do so really enjoy your content and delivery style. Keep it up bro 😊🙌 Selling my Kraton Exb to go get this Typhon 6s V5
Thanks! I would rather have the Typhon than the Kraton honestly. I think the Kraton is too heavy for how its made.
nice pick up brother. The Typhon was the first arrma car I ever owned. And now I believe I have more than 10 of them. Like you I don't care about the brand but the smile and enjoyment the rc is going to give me. Great video brother 👍👌💯
I love your excitement, it shines through ;)
Thanks
I think they should include a set of extra wheel nuts for all rcs. I feel like aside from body clips, those are the easiest things to loose.
That would be nice
I have had my losi tenacity db pro for over a year and just today put high speed pinion on,turned punch level all the way up and stuck 3s lipo in it..damn thing is quick on 3s and handles like a dream..exceptional well built buggy!!
My wife asked me what I wanted for Christmas last month and I said surprise me. She got me one of these and all I've gotta say is WOW.
Never really looked into high end RC cars before but this thing is a blast!
Your wife rocks!!! This has become one of my favorite RC's
@@outsourcedrc She is pretty dope! Best wife ever!
I used 2 3s batteries and it screams. Played with 1 battery the rest of the day lol
@@Genos2600 I'm not sure if you can run it on 3s. I think 4s is the lowest they suggest. I'd check online and make sure you can run it on 3s. You can damage the batteries or electronics if you run the wrong batteries in an RC
@@outsourcedrc My wife said the hobby shop dude told her these would be fine and I can run one or two batteries.
imgur.com/a/EMdXS08
Am I good to run one of those or do I need to use two?
Appreciate the lookin out for sure. I know nothing when it comes to this new hobby of ours lol.
Glad to see another Arrma on the channel 👍🏼
Hey, you keep doing what you do! Loving it!
Just got mine. So happy !
Awesome RC and ripping
My typhon also takes up grass like that! It’s hilarious! I can’t jump it in my yard for that reason lol!
Finally coming around to arrma👌
Just found your channel man you seem so happy with this buggy!
I absolutely love your videos Man
Got one. Love my arrma typhon 6s. Arrma tough
Now your on the right track with real rc's😉👌
Wait till you get the k6 ✊👊
Glad to see you got a arrma.
I've been wanting one of these
And now you have 2 :)
Your giitty-ness is what this hobby is all about. Have fun.
Please do more videos with this Typhon. I would like to see how this holds up and how easy to find aftermarket parts
This was a fun video!!! I had the same reaction to the V5. I did want the upgrades so this is a good time to buy. No mods needed. A couple tips. On higher speed runs turn down the steering rate on the transmitter and it is very controllable. As you know, use the right tire for the task. Some GRP GT or Hoon tires work great on the street. AKA buggy tires will make the most of it on the track. Take a look at Modelflight RC for suspension setup. Note that our shock pistons are different than the V4. I put in heavier shock oil to get the bounce out of it. 45w front and 40wt rear. I may go 45w front and rear which is just slightly heavier than stock but made a huge difference. This thing is a flier. If you push it I'm confident it will jump right out on your yard 😃 . Have a great day!
Great video. It's a very fast car. I hope you get a chance to try a Talion sometime - basically a hybrid of the Kraton and the Typhon. I like your excitement - keep it up! You make videos for the way many of us run our RCs. It's interesting to see the skate park stuff and all, but that's not how I run mine. Your videos are much more applicable to me.
It was really funny to see you standing there looking at the ground where the Typhon dug the hole. Hahaha.
lol did you see my mouth open? I had to keep that in the video.
I have been with you since your first Revo when I bought mine. I have never seen you so giddy over a car ever! Congrats, I only run Arrma and Associated now (gave the revo to my Step-Son), and my Notorious & Kraton are my favorites. If you think getting a Kraton is too much like your Revo to justify it, you'll be shocked at how different they drive. Also once in the Arrma system the parts compatibility is so nice that you'll spend less keeping them up. 💪👊
Maybe one day I'll get one.
I have this one, the 3S version, and the Kraton 6S V5. I was a Traxxas guy until these three RCs. Put an EXB bumper on the two 6S's and some motor fans and let'm fly. The Typhon is perfectly at home jumping and bashing with a good bumper for sure. That 3S will shock you too. I got it going 44 mph. I found out the other day that the 6S Typhon will run on 3S no problem and is still nasty fast. I clocked my Typhon 6S at 63 MPH with the optional gear in the rain. I was running an 80C battery. I'll do it again with some 100C's when they arrive soon. I love how genuine your content is. You make me laugh when you laugh. lol. Keep it up bro. Oh, and bump that punch up to max and it will correct in the air just fine. Mine will do backflips.
Glad you're liking the Arrmas you picked up! I also agree with your sentiments on driving. I'll send my Notorious and Talion on big jumps but I'm not intending to break them. I want to pull off my stunt, land on my wheels, drive off and repeat. Like finding a good line at a skatepark or bike park. Skills rule. Anyone can line up to a ramp and squeeze the throttle. Plus... my budget has limits 🤣. Great vid!
This video sold me....even though i don't need another RC...I will be getting this one. My Kraton 8s is not even a month old and I want this thing now.
This is one of my favorite RC's
the OTHER pro tip is the little balance connector holder at the back there. between the center driveshaft and the battery housing. if batteries don't have the plastic proector thingy on the balance connector you can slide them in those slots and buckle 'em in.
That things insane..............
Just bought it 1 week ago and i love it!
I'm not a fan of the look of this one personally, but holy cow are you having fun. I feel like your excitement in this video is the same as mine was when I got my Super Rock Rey. Oddly enough, I was more excited about my SRR than I was with my 1/5th scale. My 1/5th scale is even my favorite RC, but still wasn't as excited as I was when I got my SRR. Might have something to do with the look and/or power of it. My Losi 5ive T is what I expected it to be, a crazy big and powerful RC and it doesn't disappoint. The SRR is more than I expected it to be from the pictures and videos. Your experience with your new RC car is definitely coming through on video. 😊
In my 2 weeks long quest to buy my first real rc car ive seen plenty of youtubers channel that were all about destroying their rcs, making them "fly to the moon" as you people say. But after buying a Typhon 6s for over 1k canadien $ with the battery and charger mostly because of your videos im not gonna just try to break it lol. Its fun enough just driving this thing, going off road and doing some jumps, no need to send it half a football field down range. Who has the money the rebuild this thing everytime you go out?
And yeah, this rc is absolutely amazing, i went from a ruckus 1/18th 25mph i bougth to play with my nephew to this MONSTER. JFC this thing is fast.
yeah I dont try to wreck my RC's. I just have fun with them. I know I'm rough with my XMaxx, but it can take it!
@@outsourcedrc Haha, havent seen those videos yet, but yeah i bet it can. Ive seen that Thing come alive out of 40ft+ high jumps. It was just a bit out of my budget range and also not my ``style of driving`` yet, maybe in a few months once i get a feel of how these things fly. Thinking of doing the truggyfy mod on the typhon 6s and making it a real basher once im ready to start doing flips and stuff. But im probably gonna start with getting it on a track. Baby steps.
I love your videos man, you make such great content and cover all the important and interesting points, If you upload the 2 hour unedited version I'm sure we all would enjoy that too :)
keep up the great work! whenever I see your videos it makes my day. Thank You.
Thanks. I dont know about putting up a two hour video of me learning an RC is all that entertaining.
Typhon 6s démoniaque 😈 👍👌💪💪💪
You're getting the Arrma experience now !!!! I put 300k in my Typhon center diff , perfect !!!! As another person said , wait til you drive the Talion !!! It is probably my favorite of the Arrma 6s lineup !!!
I want to change the diff oil, but I cant find any 300k to buy. My 400k and 1 mill have been on back order for like a month.
So much fun,,
I hope I can own it too one day..
Nice video man 👍🏻, it’s good seeing someone not trying to destroy their RC’s for once 🤣, keep up the good work and get a Kraton 6s 😊
Great video, love seeing you so excited over this stuff. Try to get it out on a track!
I'll get it out there one day soon I hope
@@outsourcedrc I’d kill for some track action. Bring this and the e revo out I’d love to see them both get some track screentime
@@V8chump I need time to go during the week. Too many people on the weekend
It jumps and handles very well enjoy
Great typhon 👍
Can’t wait to get mine back from the shop
Amazing car man,cool vid,thanks
I totally agree with you about the bashing. I would rather spend more time driving my RCs than repairing them any day of the week. I thoroughly enjoy upgrading and repairing them but I enjoy driving them that much more.
Livin the damn dream!
The Typhon's are awesome! Love when people truggify them as well.
Glad to see your Arrma collection is starting to come along ! Traxxas Arrma both awesome brands ! Losi is a good 3rd for me
just bought one at my local hobbyshop! drives like a beast on 4s with the standard gearing (almost too fast!!!)
Nice flying
I have the v4 of the Typhon so it's not much different from the v5 aside from the electronics mostly. I did change out the terrible radio and receiver to a DumboRC for about $30-40 and new bearings, but the BLX ESC and motor are top notch, no problems whatsoever, hell even the supposed crappy Arrma steering servo is solid. I couldn't be happier with it and I run it about every other day.
I am, however, very envious of your beautiful land and home!
Thanks!
You like that thing now, make sure you tune your diffs and watch it really get nuts! I use 100k front, 500k center and 60k rear. There are tons of combos but I like this as of yet. And definitely shim the diffs. If you drive it stock for a few packs it'll feel like a totally different car after the redux! Great vid brother!
I believe this . I just haven’t torn it apart yet to do them all at once
If my RC car hit the tree like that, the only Movement would be my bowls 😂
The first upgrade you need is 6 inch tires. It will raise the ground clearance by an inch! It makes it an absolute beast on and off road! I speak from experience.
What 6 inch tires do you use on the 6s Typhon?
great video we took ours out and we struggled to open our on full due to limited space roll on summer and dry fields.
yeah sometimes space is the limiting factor.
How old are you 10??? Nice to see you so excited!!!Great to hear the fun coming through the mic. Enjoy!!!
Stoked to see this . I ve wanted to try one of these ever since a k6s . Seen the sale
Yep that’s exactly what it is front wheels losing traction I burned my tyres off front after second go out with it .. Lost grip on the front and it started rolling over . I put badlands max tyres on . Nice vid 😎👍🏻🤙🇬🇧
Good choice, it looks awesome
Same I bought this too, thank you so much fun, screaming fast 💨 🏎🏎
Isn’t it cool???
@@outsourcedrc yes one of my favorites 👍🔥🔥 just crazy how fast it gets up to speed
That is a real laugh of pure joy on the first pull👍😁. Just got mine a couple of days ago differential were barley filled except the front, not a big deal I've come to expect that from all rtr no matter the brand.
Just how excited he is about his new toy makes me want to go out and get one! This guy should be in marketing and/or in commercials.
You should get one! Its awesome!
Yeah but it's cringe when adults act like kids. That's exactly why you don't see marketing like that.
@@dogg92na it's cringe when people think it's cringe you should enjoy life no matter the age
Awesome video brother. Love the enthusiasm for the hobby and wherever you live, I hope to have a place in the woods myself someday. Looks peaceful and perfect for rc bashing
Thanks. Its a nice little spot. I need to clean out my back yard and make a track
Very cool!!
Nice pick up! IMO...the Typhon is the best rig in Arma’s lineup. You may want to consider “truggifying” it. Gives you a bit more ground clearance and you’ll have more control when it’s in the air with larger tires. There’s some CZcams vids on how to do it.
Nah, I'll keep it as a buggy. Thats why I got it. I already have an E Revo and a Notorious.
I've got a 1/8 Castle in my Traxxas slash. You can only go about quarter to half throttle before it gets super rowdy when bashing. Its so much fun having that power though. Yours is a better buy for the price hands down. Looking at getting one of these. Great video!
I want one of your hats lol awesome.
The Typhon 3s was my first Arrma and after owning the Kraton 6s and learning Arrma products if they would just put metal driveshafts and shocks it would be perfect. Those Typhon plastic driveshafts and shocks are the worst. So many times I had a rock in the back and tore them apart so I buy 3-4 sets of driveshafts at a time cuz I know I'll need them and the shocks too. Watching your video talked me into just getting the Typhon 6s V5 now. Thanks a lot lol luckily my wife won't know the difference when I take the Typhon 6s out, she will think it's the same 3s I had before😂
happy new year
Trust it can handle pretty much anything you throw at it as long as your experienced. I have v3 version and it’s a beast....also imagine switching pinion gear on flat ground for even faster speed. Bro also get you some front and back bumpers for added protection.
What bumpers you go with?
Ordered one today. Can't wait to get it...
You are going to love it!
Do you like it?
Man I can’t wait for my typhon 6s to arrive :)
You are going to love it!
What battery’s and chargers do u use
Put 5-10mm hex extenders on it and proline mx28. And that will be ur favorite truck
Solid advice here. You put some tires on it and it’s like a puppy. It will do anything to please you
Advice good but i would add to skip the extenders and do it right with kraton hubs. Then its beast and you font have to worry about leverage breaking anything. Either way throw the 2.8s on there and this becomes an unstoppable truggy
@@joelasher6281 yeah but I’m sure he wouldn’t do it the right way
@@joelasher6281 kraton hubs? 6s kraton? Is it a direct fit
@@8ightgeek just got this v5 and, slap a pair of HR steering blocks, badlands 2.8 all around and loving my truggyfied typhon!
Happy new years bro! and nice new RC thats awesome i want to get one not sure this or the XMAXX! you tell me lol
Happy new year! I think I like this over the Maxx
Xmaxx out of the box dependability is a gamble. I've found arrma to be truly RTR compared to Traxxas.
19:12 was such a smooth curve
I got a love hate thing with buggys love the way they drive hate the front end 1 big crash and tons of repairs. But I still own 1 90 mph nitro buggy. The fun still winning not to sell it. Nice lawn dart good to see no damages . Looks like a good runner.
I know it's not in the same category as the erevo 2.0 but how does it compare in terms of overall fun between the 2? Your video has got me intrigued on the typhoon 6s but I also have a Revo.
Raise the body mounts if you can do the front with a kraton front body mount, the rear ones just raise it to one screw
Arrma has a history of racing, their heritage comes from Team Durango and it has a smaller beginnings as well, and it was racing from the beginning.
Great video. Haven’t watched it all yet, but noticed that you didn’t use the little slot to keep the balance wire secure. Just thought I would mention it incase you accidentally get it ripped off in the drive shaft. There’s a little slot and rubber fastener to keep it in. Would hate to see that nice battery get wrecked!
Did your Spektrum lipo fit in OK without fowling the body? Struggling to get my Team Corally 6s lipo in my Typhon and it's a fair bit smaller than your Spektrum. I'm finding anything over 46mm tall the connectors stop the body from clipping down neatly without it flaring out.
Just picked one up for $419! Can’t wait to give her a rip
Awesome bro ! I seen that good sale
No rush on the answer, just when u have time
Ok thank you. Again great video!
Just curious what’s wrong with the Maxx?
I’ve seen in vid’s that it doesn’t handle the best & that you have to install the wide Maxx kit to help get it under control. But we’ve also seen people talk about it’s durability.
Thanks...A Subscriber
As always, thank you for the thorough and well put together video. I’m looking to acquire my first 4WD and have been looking at the Maxx as well. What I’m noticing with this Typhon is how it doesn’t seem take jumps very well without landing in an awkward position. I like the hybrid feel of it being between a Rustler and the Maxx with the different buggy style, but I think I’d be doing more maintenance than running it. Any updates or thought since you created this video. Thank you in advance for your time and thoughts. 😎👊
Typhon does 63mph stock pinion upgrade pinion include in box did 74mph and jumped it 180ft
Holy hell. This might be a good pickup to complement my e revo 2.0. Revo loves to traction roll on pavement where the typhon slides like a dream and can FLY
Nice place mate 👍🏻
Thanks!
I just got one! Thing is a monster!
yeah it is
You make me happy
