  • I upgraded my Arrma Typhon Mega (brushed) to 3S brushless. Here's an update as to how it's holding up. I think my work is finished... at least for now! -djsoulforce!

    The Typhon is an absolute joy to drive and very easy to handle. I know that if I push mine too far, it's going to break again. Before I fall in love with the Mega version, I think I'll just go ahead and buy the 6S BLX version and get the "real deal!" 👍💪🏿👌🧨💯!!!

    I'm so amazed at how easy it is to work on Arrma vehicles. Parts are plentiful, easy to identify and cheap to buy. If something breaks, you can have a replacement part the same day (with a trip to your local hobby shop) or within a week if ordered online! Many Arrma cars share the same parts as their other models, for example, the Typhon shares many parts with the Big Rock Crew Cab! 💥💥💥POW!!! -djsoulforce!

    Great job DJ, thank you. I don't think I have ever told you but like 30+ years ago I was into RC cars. We had a ball, we made a track with 3 different courses. Back then it was always a hassle just to race 6 cars at the same time. We had a box full of different crystals (frequencies) so everyone could race. Maybe it's time to get back into it lol Stay safe my friend.

      I'm using a motor from a ZD Racing ZMT-10 Monster Truck that I had laying around. The receiver is the DumboRC from Banggood.com. All other car parts I got from www.AmainHobbies.com. At AmainHobbies, you can search for a car or truck, then check for optional parts for that vehicle! Good luck, thanks for watching!!!

    Just popped a 3660 3300kv 60a in my senton gonna change the spur assembly tomorrow if I can find one. And running a 17t pinion on 3s should make it scoot! Any suggestions mine was 91t spur and dropping down to a 57 should make it not break as easy right?

    • @DJSOULFORCE
      @DJSOULFORCE  Před 3 lety

      Yes, you're right. In my final upgrades, I changed the pinion & spur gears out to the same found in the stock Arrma Granite 3S BLX. To make it fit properly, I had to use the Arrma adjustable motor mount - not the one with pre-drilled holes for mounting the motor. Good luck, thanks for watching!!!
