In this video I swap out the stock center diff fluid for some 300k and take the typhon on a test run. The Typhon is a whole new RC with 300k fluid.
Because I know you are going to ask, I used Mineral Spirits to clean the gears, and I just used a paper towel to wipe the fluid out of the diff case.

Man! Every time I watch your videos I see a genuine contagious smile!!! Thanks for the great videos! Please keep them coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Personal injury over RC damage...that's a true hero right there.
Just changed mine using stock weight. Mine too had very little fluid in the diff. Thanks for the video! The other 6S Arrmas call for 100k fluid. I'll definitely test this too!
Very noticeable, that would diffinitely be worth the fluid change! Thanks for sharing! 👍
Such a cool video! Thanks for that!
That's a very happy man with the results of 300k.
I had the same problem with the kraton so I changed my diff fluid to 500k and I had that exact smile😁
Im doing the 500k as well. wish me luck!
Smiles and RCs. Awesome and thanks!
Excellent demo of 10K vs. 300K oil in center diff. Easy to see the different performance.
That thing looks like an absolute ripper!! Awesome video by the way! 👍😉
It is! Thanks
@@outsourcedrc you’re welcome! 😉
Great video! And when I win the lottery and am able to purchase one of these, I will change the diff fluid to 300K. Thanks for another GREAT video!
hey whats, Mister Outsourced, thought i'd take a sec to tell you i'm glad you're healthy and workin on videos. been waiting for the next one. Cheers from Central Texas!
Thanks! I'm doing well. hi from Georgia!
The Notorious is wonderful with thick fluid. My v4 is currently 30k front, silicone earplugs center and 30k rear. After watching your vid and my bash session today, I'm going back to 1million cst in the rear. It was such fun at the dog park/baseball fields with that setup
If you do blow the front/rear diffs, there are 2 easy fixes: stronger cross pins (people use 2.25mm or #43 drill bits or drill rod) and larger shims to better support the sun gears (which can fracture from time to time). As you know, nothing is perfect out of the box, but I've found these 2 improvements to beef up the durability of the diffs.
When I opened up my Notorious V5's center diff there was no oil inside. Also putting 60/300/30k in the Notorious is amazing! It performs so well.
That's the perfect mix bud...
God bless you in JESUS precious name...
You probably dont give a shit but does someone know of a tool to get back into an instagram account..?
I somehow lost my login password. I would love any help you can offer me.
@Elias Mathias instablaster =)
@Hank Landry thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Hank Landry It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
1st thing tomorrow I’m going to do it to mine thx for the tip great vid buddy
Pretty amazing that it doesn't grip roll, yet still turns quickly and tight. Seems like that was a pretty cheap and beneficial upgrade!
Very. So far the diff is holding up also.
I’ve only had rear diff issues with big tires. The notorious will have issues with rear diff. You may get lucky. Typhon tires are small, I’ve had no issues.
Fantastic video. I cant wait to get one. Also just done a diff change in my Granite, cant blelive the diffrence its made.
It really does change it
PS great video that thicker fluid worked beautifully
It is definitely a ripper now 👍🏁
So cool this Typhonn
Cool RC and bashing
This sure look like GA!!! Westside ATL here... you sir have a new subscriber!!!
Thanks! I'm on the south east side of ATL
Man that really changed that to a beast!
Yeah it did.
@@outsourcedrc hey man great videos i really appreciate that you are open to running and trying other brands. Are you still running the stock receiver and transmitter on the typhon thanks again
@@Patterson66 Yep. Stock electronics
Really nice run on that red-ish gravel😊
I beat the snot out of my notorious the other day and surprised it drove away with no damage just learning how to jump and land properly I ended up landing quite a few times right on the nose lol but I'm definetly happy I listened to you a little while ago when you told me to go notorious over maxx love your videos man keep it up
Thanks! I'm glad my video helped you out.
Interesting stuff really
I really like your excitement.
Excellent !!!😗
Typhon was my first arrma rig after just owning traxxas and I never looked back. typhon is a monster ripper. Enjoy your content my friend. Looks like the same spot Gap races on. Keep em coming brother 💯💪
Thanks. Yep, Gap told me about this spot. I hope to bash with him one day.
@@outsourcedrc awesome brother look forward to seeing a video up soon
Great video. I put 125k in the center of my Notorious because it’s the heaviest I can buy right now. But it’s -20 C here and all ice and snow, so it’s difficult to judge the effect.
Great video doing the back to back comparison. 👍
Yeah diff fluid is out of stock everywhere it seems. I had to pay a lot for mine.
Nice I usually run 200k and it helps ballooning and keeps the power at all 4 wheels
Looking forward to the full diff service video, I still have not cracked the diffs on my RC yet for service.
I actually recorded it, but it didn’t turn out very good so I didn’t put it out.
Subbed for more Typhon diff fluid videos
Your stuff is good keep it up
Thanks!
@@outsourcedrc This thing or xmaxx 8s? 😀 Which to get?
@@kasparov937 Oh thats a hard choice. They are so different and are so much fun. I guess it comes down to what you want to spend and where you can drive it. If I could have only one, man... I dont know lol. You cant go wrong with either.
great video. i might have to change the fluid in mine now adter watching this. really feels front heavy when driving
Yeah I dont like the stock fluid in this thing. Changing it is a must.
@@outsourcedrc Will it wheelie now?
Hey! I didn't know you ran at the same Dave n Busters spot where BIG Gap Reviews A to Z be racing at. I extremely want see you two guys race. I follow both you guys channel. I was smiling 😃the entire time. Glad you figured out the diffs fluid. There's a whole lot more to do with these Arrma platforms. Now try the Proline MX28 buggy tires and you're going to smile like the Joker 🤤💯
Yeah I bump into Gap all the time. He is the one that told me about that spot. I'll race him. He has my number. Those tires? Are they the Badlands? I'll look into them.
@@outsourcedrc it's a notorious with small wheels? And a wider stance is my thoughts. Man we have to many cool RCs best way to forget about communism is RC
Hi man, i Like Your Channel, cheera from italy
Add some to the rear for sure
thanks for this Video. I just pickup up a typhon 6s v5. sounds like I should be changing the fluid in all the diffs?
what weight would you recommend in all the diffs? and pack them totally full correct?
A monster on wheels arrma was based from rc racing so a lot of it shows on their rcs.
Bought a 6s typhon roller a from a friend along with 2 2050kv, metal gear servo and a DST3 transmitter and a clear shell. Painted Black and yellow so can see better at a distance. Still adding decals as ik see fit. Not wanting any red on it.
NICE
Looks good...definately making u into a good drifter....if that might be another car u try out...get ya one of thoae drifting cars...
I will one day.
Sweet,, 👊👍
second back flip 30 feet over you lol love it
lol I was thinking the same thing. the typhon is beast
I ran 100k which us stock on the v4 and for a backflip and it does it easy going to get 300k, 500k and 1 million for testing
I changed myV4 Typhon centre diff to 300k oil today but haven't run it yet to test. There was only a tiny amount of thin oil in there so I expect a huge difference. I actually would have preferred to go around 200k but I have no 200k oil so it was between 300k and 500k and 300k was the safest bet. I have 500k in my Kraton 6s and that made a world of difference.
You will love it
Arrma makes it easier than any competition in it's class to change diff fluid.
I believe it
You're making me want to pick up another Typhon !!!! Had a V4 , did 30 k / 300k / 20k and then truggified it , holy cow instant backflips in the air with the MX28's !! Even with the stock tires and truggified handled awesome !!! Glad to see you enjoying it !!! BTW, I also did 300k in my Noto , perfect IMO . Isn't it nice how fast you can get to the center diff ???
Get you one! Its a bad little RC. Yeah these diffs are easy to get to. That makes it super easy to swap fluids.
@@outsourcedrc what exactly does a truggified typhon mean?
im a new sub awesome vids man.im a rc guy .got a traxxas e-maxx its insane on 4s.i think ya fixed it .its fast
Welcome to the channel!
@@outsourcedrc thanks man.
That red dirt is epic to bash on.
Yeah but its a pain to clean lol
Looks like the 300k diff fluid did the trick. I have a kraton v5, but I really need to get me a buggy. The control is amazing looking. My rustler vxl has good control, but not like the typhon. I have an idea, how about an off road comparison of the typhon vs rustler vxl 4x4? Just for fun si ce they aren't really the same category. Nice vid, keep it up!
If I have time. I have like, 30 video ideas and not enough days lol
I run 500k in my typhon 3s with a 6s swap love it
I might go up to 500k I have not decided yet.
With such a garden, I would have made my own private track ..
Cool video. The Typhon comes stock with 100k in the center diff.
It says 10k in the manual
Lol, nice tip!!.... I wish I had seen this vid like 2 weeks ago cuz I literally just redid the fluid on my center diff with the stock 10k fluid. And I have also noticed that it does burn the front tires a lot faster than the rears with the factory setup.
I am however thinking about getting rid of the center diff & replacing it with the Limitless spool. I'm getting a titanium spool for my Limitless so I may drop the stock one into the Typhon 6S.
The Typhon 6S is so far my favorite buggy to bash with, thing has serious ballz lol. I have been bashing it for almost 1.5yr now. I even put a castle MMX 8S at one point, insane power! 😆
Happy Bashing Bro 😎👍
Let me know how that spool works out for you
@@outsourcedrc I sure will! 👍😎
Might be a while now, I just picked up my 1st nitro car, a Losi 8ight Buggy! 😁 That's gonna be interesting lol. I'm hoping that I don't screw up the break-in process 🤞
I locked my senter diff on kraton 6s. It keeps it plated to the ground much better
I put the 20T pinion and a 42t spool in my V5 Typhon, but my center diff had much more grease in it than yours when I cracked it open.
Nice! I ran 500k, 1mill cst and then eventually stuffed silicone earplugs in my Talion and Notorious. Definitely had to re-shim the front and rear diffs but it puts the power down so well. Almost too well sometimes 😬😂
Was that in your center diff?
@@surfside75 yep! I recently changed it out again though. Center diff is currently half silicone earplugs and half 1 million cst. Still great power distribution, but easier on the diff internals
@@BullyBreedRC thanks you. All this info helps me set up my Mojave and I appreciate you🤙
@@surfside75 no prob! 👊🏿
Chris, guess I should know this, but why did you have to re-shim the f/r diffs?
Nice video and content. I recognize that bash spot from another youtuber’s video. Big Gap! Was that stock gearing?
Yes, its stock gearing. Gap told me about this spot.
I thought that looked like the gap spot
When I saw this video in my notifications, I thought it was rich duperbash, lol
Sorry :P
@@outsourcedrc No I am happy you made a video. Haha
@Hyped Up Hi!
Great video, nice to see the before and after footage, can really notice the difference. I run 500k 50/30 in most of my bashers.
Is that list front center rear? or...
@@surfside75 It’s center, front, rear
Arrma Mojave basher, off-road only, stock power. Going to try 1million center and 500k front, locked w/ spool in rear. Any thoughts? Thanks.
@@surfside75 that would be much better for on road speed runs only I think. You’re turning is going to suck putting a locker in the rear and that thick in front. Also will be very hard on drivetrain. You could do the million center.
@@ddubbs1453 thanks you bro👍
300k in my oil typhon v3 was a good.. 50k in front 30k in rear.. this works well for me
I think I am gonig to try that combo.
Upgrade diffs to hot racing
Great video and advice. Did you change th fluids on front and rear as well?
No, just the center.
I ran 100k oil in Ofna nitro buggy. I thought that was plenty. You get the back end to break loose but it wouldn't wheelie. 300k for me is high. However I might try 300k in my Maxx. The stock center diff oil is soooo friggin thick!
20,000,000 is what traxxas puts in the center diff on 8s xmaxx.
@@surfside75 I'm talking about the smaller Maxx. Traxxas wants the X-Maxx and Maxx to wheelie all the time. But with mine I'm thinking to try out a million weight and see how that does.
Replacing front shock hold downs all the time. I think because there so exposed.
M2C Solves that problem stock weak point
After watching you play with this buggy i want one now but I really can't make up my mind if I'd rather have the typhoon or the talion 6s truggy/buggy or whatever it is. Those talions look wicked to its also supposed to run 70mph with optional gearing. I have a widemaxx this will be my 2nd hobby grade rc so I just wanna be sure ill be happy with what I get. Next thing or my 3rd rc will be a crawler.
I have not driven the Talion, but I'm sure its fun. I'm just concerned at how durable it is. I know my Notorious stays broken. It seems to me that Arrma does not do RC's with wide foot prints very well. I think its too much weight and leverage for their materials. The Typhon is a little beast though. You wont be disappointed with it.
Thanks for the input I ended up going with the axial ryft. It should be here sometime this week and I can't wait im super excited about the ryft it looks awesome. I seen on Facebook that vitavon is coming out with a swaybar they already have the trailing arms and axel housings im gonna get for it.
I run 1m wight on my typhon and I love it
i run 1 million in my 1/10 raptor Baja rey makes a huge difference now the front doesnt balloon the fronts and sends about 30% more power to the back !!!
Adding 1million to my center diff in my Mojave v2 with a rear diff lock and 500k in front? Do you believe this will be good for offroad loose surfaces?
Just bought some 1million weight silicone oil for the center diff for my Mojave basher. Going to try a WCM diff locker for the rear? and 60k in the front. Probably going to snap the weak arrma diff pins now in the rear🙄🤙🤣🍻
I have 1 mill in the middle of my Notorious. it works.
Mate I’d love a video going through your e revo stuff like diff fluid, hop ups, suspension/shock setup, etc. your revo handles great I’m not sure if you have it in the lower chassis holes or the stock hole (the holes near the front a arms) but it seems to STICK to the ground
Thats funny, because I'm working on that video right this second. I actually have to wait for something to come in the mail. Once it gets here, I'll do a complete break down of my suspension setup. Kinda funny that I'm asked about this all the time.
@@outsourcedrc I’ve mentioned it a few times but that’s awesome man mines still basically bone stock outside of limiting straps and the chassis brace
I think the Typhon is my favorite RC.
When I got my 6s kraton it was the same bro very little oil in all the diffs
I discovered your channel a couple months ago. I love your enthusiasm for trying out new vehicles. Now on the differential fluid, did you change the front and rear also? The center looks like it improved the performance. I’m looking for a differential fluid that can kind of accommodate speed runs, bashing (nothing hardcore) and drifting. I have the Hoons DBoots for the on road stuff and took a worn out set and taped them for drifting. My Typhon will probably be used on road but still want that flexibility to be able to do a speed run off road (grass or dirt). Thanks for sharing your thoughts and ideas on the Typhon.
Thanks!
I only changed the center fluid. I'm going to wait to mess around with the front and rear for later.
I'm not sure how you should set it up for street running on Hoons. I know they didnt work out too great with the stock set up for me.
@@outsourcedrc if I was just doing speed runs, I would set it up like my Arrma Limitless (1million in the front and rear-34 tooth spool and 27 tooth pinion ). That thing is a rocket for that application. I wanted my Typhon to be “Jack of all trades and master of none”. My reason for using it on the road is because it sits higher than the Limitless because Michigan roads are terrible and I still like going off road (swapping to the OEM off road tires).
I'm super interested in seeing how the other fluid you mentioned performs
I'll probably change the fluid in the front and rear diffs and see how it runs. Everyone is telling me to go 50 and 30.
@@outsourcedrc This is what I keep hearing but I'm too scared to take mine apart because I wonder if I'll ever get it back together 😂
That's a good setup. I personally like 80k up front and 30k in the rear, with 300k center. But I like more power going to the rear as I like to lay down them fat skids lol.
@@nickkuhlmam1336 lighter in the rear sends more power to the rear?
Very nice
I’m curious to know what tires you going to put on It once these wear out 😅
I'm not sure. I may stick with the stock tires. I'll check around.
I need to do this. But I just put new tires on mine
Traxxas do make some nice stuff
Nice vid!
Thanks!
I run 1M in all my 6's Arrma's center diffs. 60k front, 30k rear.
I'm going to put 1 million in my notorious.
@KING_LEO1904 I only bash. I'll make a video with the 1 million when I put it in there
1million center, rear is getting a spool and front is getting 500k🤣 -will see if I break all my weak diff pins within a few runs😑🤣 Mojave offroad only.
You need a much bigger pinion to do a backflip to increase the wheel speed
Great video! Any recommendations on where to get 300k fluid?
Where ever you can get it lol. I got it from ebay. Only one that was on there.
nice rip so im looking for new rc this or the notorious ? i had the 3s typhon it was fun
Oh, well, hmm.. I think I like the Typhon better. Maybe I will change my mind after I change the diff fluids in the notorious.
Hey bro, love the vids! If I can make a quick suggestion? I run my Typhon V5 with 50K in the front, 300K in the center and 30K in the rear diff. Even more control and even less power bleeding to the front wheels.
Best of luck with the Typhon and keep up the good work
Thanks. I see that combo suggested all the time. Do you break the drive train with it?
@@outsourcedrc I did break it on stock oil. Blew my rear diff's planetary gears. Since I moved to a thicker oil, I've had zero issues and I mostly bash on 6S with the 16T pinion. I also shimmed both the front and the rear tho.
@@alvius87 why does this diff oil combo break the drivetrain please😬🤔 and when you say shimmed do you mean the input to crown gear ?
@@gonzodetroitify I think the stock oil setup is too light when general bashing around. It is however very good for racing on carpet. I think it might've been a badly build diff right out the box... Those things happen I guess.
I shimmed it on the diff itself on the side of the ring hear, between the ring gear and the bearing. The input gear felt tight enough.
I’ve been following your videos on the Arrma Typhon 6S V5 with particular interest as it’s the RC I want to buy next. Keep up the good work.
Is it me or has your rear right tyre also come partially unglued? Judging by the thumbnail picture it looks that way.
Yeah I've had 3 tires come unglued on this thing lol
I work at a local hobby store and just got mine yesterday. Had a customer come in and was telling me about how awesome was. I was already wanting a new r/c and that settled it.
Amazing! Get it. You won't regret it.
Nice video! If os had the money to buy all the rcs and review em(like the 8s oc, the 8s Keaton, felony, infraction, dbxle2.0, sbr2.0 etc), then he would be at the top of the rc food chain...if I'm on TH-cam checkin out rc vids, if it's a car os has then typically I like his vids more than most others. Not saying your collection is small outsource, I'm just sayin I prefer ur vids, and want more content lol. I'd love for you to get an 8s outcast
Thank you! What exactly is it about my videos that you like over others? Just so I know what I am doing right.
@@outsourcedrc I mean who else kick flips a typhon haha that's why
@@outsourcedrc just cuz it feels little more authentic than some other guys that come off more as salesman than hobby enthusiasts...
If using 100k in the centre what should you use front and rear, 60k and 30k?
My stock typhon does double backflips.... thats with the 2pt speed pinion. Top speed was 72mph with the 20t. Tried a 25t yesterday and only maxed out at 74. Super disappointed to be honest. Still stock 50t center diff. Might try the infraction v2 center 46t diff and try again. Now after watching, I want to take apart the center typhon diff and check the fluid!
27t with 4s and tires from axial ryft i did triple backflips off of a speedbump
Yup!!!
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I just got a arrma notorious v5 can you do the same thing with that car with the diff fluids
I am. I'm going to put some super heavy fluid in it though.
Like 500k
@@troyacker5305 1 million at first
Would like to see the Proline MX M2 buggy tires on this thing
I'll be getting new tires for it soon it seems. The front are already wearing.
I got 3 hour run time out my stock tires before the front tires went bald .I wonder if the heavier diif fluid may help with that since it seems like the front just spin too much .any suggestions on some good long lasting off road or on road tires ?
@@hemiboy3923 I'm not sure yet. I'll see what I can get.
Was that running location recommended to you by GAP reviews AtoZ? I just saw his Rustler 4x4 2.0 running video and it's the same place!
Yes same place I watch Gap too.Let get get get it....
@@naveshangovender Well, the funny thing is I don't even really watch that channel. I just happened to come across the video when I was bored one day.
Buying a part hurts a lot less than broken bones or torn ligaments.
Fun fact : the instructions that come with the typhon V4 recommend 100k diff fluid.
But on the Typhon V5 instructions it says 10k diff fluid.
I wonder why they changed that, maybe some stress issues on the central diff ?
Anyway great vid ! I'm gonna try 100k fluid on mine since it has the same traction issues as yours out of the box.
Typo
@@tonyromano6220 not a typo
Ok, good to know.
I run 1mil in my center diff it’s like locking the diff but with still a bit of play. I do speed run on my typhon 6s
Hey great vid, what diff oil are you running front & rear ?
Try 7k rear and 10k middle
What weight centre diff would you recommend, primarily will be used on grass, in a large open area, thanks
300k seems really good to me. You could go higher but I think 300k is the sweet spot.
