- Had another fun jump park bash, first one with my Typhon testing taped Proline MX28 tires taped on F11's. Missed capturing a Mega launch and clean triple set jump. Thought the GoPro was on and it wasn't....... still kicking myself. Center diff crapped out at the end, so there was no redo...Lol. Such is life. Tires ran and jumped great. Thanks to Dubbl-A from the Arrma Forum for his motivation to try them out.

And I have a question and looking for help. Recently I replaced the Armma BLX 185, with aroma BLX 200 system but keep the Tactic txx300 radio system. The 200 requires 6v to run. The 185 radio only puts out 4v. Can that effect my speed cause it is slow and yes I programmed it twice? Running 6s
Tank 62 I don't think your radio/receiver is the issue, it's designed for 6v I believe, but no more. The Tactic TTX300 comes with the Nero which runs the BLX200 system. I ran it in my Kraton and it was very FAST with tons of torque. I'm wondering if something is wrong with the wiring or setup. Did you calibrate the transmitter to the ESC via "throttle setup"??? That's where you hold the set button then release it after turning on the ESC. Should here constant beeping. Press set button while in neutral, pull full throttle then press set again, push full Brake then press set again, then shut ESC off. I'd try these recalibration steps before anything else if you haven't already. Remember the ESC programming variables such as punch, brake force...etc are different between the BLX185 and BLX200 systems. You can download the manual from the Arrma website if you need the programming table. Make sure to recalibrate with the truck on a stand just in case...Lol😱. Are you running the full motor/ESC combo or just the motor?🤔🤔
Great bashing session bro!!! That tires rocks on the Typhon!!!👍💪😎
2040 RC thanks so much my friend, very happy with the MX28's thus far. Sorry I missed recording the grand finale Mega jumps at the end... Lol, guess there's always next time.👍👍😋😵😵😵🙋🙋🐒🐒🐒
Nice ,
U inspired me to get the typhon
it's 1 of my favorite RC . your a beast with these jumps man
Marcus Allen thanks so much, that's a huge compliment, very appreciated bro. LOVE the Typhon!!! Such a capable Beast.👍👍🙋🙋🙋😜😜😵😵🐒🐒
Awesome video Rich! Those MX28s are on my to do list lol I love how they handle with smaller tires on.
RC Ranch thanks brother 👊!!! Just make sure to vent them. I didn't think it was necessary with these 2.8s, but I found a decent amount of sand and crap in them after my Gorilla tape job let loose and sidewall ripped running the Castle 2200/Mamba Monster X combo😨. Think the sand and dirt helped breakdown the tape 🤔. I use 1/8"(or smaller) sharpened aluminum tubing chucked in a drill. Makes about the same size hole as the rim holes which I seal off with tape. 🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Definitely buying a 6s version... Thinking of a 3s as well! Great vid brother 👊👊👍
sweet run! you jump like crazy, love It!!
Tobias Löfvenborg thanks so much my friend, wish I had recorded the ending, did a huge MEGA jump off that big berm and my best triple set jumps....eerrhhhh. Next time...Lol.😜🙋🙋😵😵😵🐒🐒
LOL crazy bashin bro I love it!! Keep up the good work.
Tee Tellis thanks bro, Typhon is a mini Beast...Lol.👍👍😵😵😵🐒
somebody was selling a roller for $125 by the time I woke up it was sold 😤😂 looks like fun might have to look into one great video 👍
Rc Fun thanks bro, the Typhon is wicked fast and handles like a dream. Rollers go fast sometimes. Definitely love mine!!! 😜😜🙋🙋🙋👍👍.
Awesome man that's some sweet bashing
KillerOffRoadHobbyz thanks brother, keep missing messages...Lol. This rig is a friggin handful to bash geared up, but wicked fast fun!!! 😵😵😵👍
Man, tons of control with those new wheels! I really need to pick up a set of those in some size for one of my RC's. Looks like it is on rails too.
Great bash!
Stewdogg Stew thanks brother, I'm super impressed with these MX28'S, that spot is bone dry and very slick/powdery dirt. Perfect size/weight for Truggified Typhon. Hoping to bash her after work today. Missed filming 2 HUGE mega launches at the end, had to rebuild center diff and straighten twisted rear chassis...Lol. Getting MT410 soon, will probably pick your brain about it some.👍👍😵😵😵😜👊👊🐒
again my friend..AWSM that tire/rim setup looking to hook up real good ❤❤❤, seems they are ma next choice for the Siren 6s BLX 😙
Tp-Parts Rc-Xtreme thanks Thomas, so far so good my friend. Really impressed with the handling, balance, and control... even on slippery dry dirt. Think they'd work great on the Siren with insane hook-up. I flew her like a bird with a Mega jump (GoPro was off... Errrhhh😵😵😢) at the end and the in air control felt perfect with this rim/tire combo.👍👍👍
Nice air and midair control!!! Great work!
Peter Weber thanks so much bro, had a blast bashing these new wheels!!! They felt very balanced on the Typhon and awesome for hitting jumps with.👍👍🙋🙋😜🐒🐒😵
That thing looks awesome love those rims & tires on it. just got a set of MX 38 badlands for the Kraton gonna test them out this weekend happy bashing bro
12R1 thanks bro, she's a handful to bash, so much faster than the other rigs, but super fun!!! Loving these MX28's. Let me know how you like the 38s. 🐒🐒🐒🙋🙋
Tires and rims look awesome, perfect fit. Despite the dry hard pack, they appeared to hook up really well.
Too bad we missed the massive jumps you eluded to at the end of the vid.
On the next round, yeah!? 👍
Chris E. thanks bro, very happy with the tires, felt perfectly balanced for bash duty. I'm still kicking myself about my GoPro blunder. Never again..... Lol. I wanted to see it too....so bummed it wasn't on like I thought it was. Same sorta thing happened years ago when I caught my biggest shark ever in the San Francisco Bay. Wife was recording, or so we thought.....OUCH.😅😅😅😵😵😢😢😢🐒🐒🐒
nice bash session bro... i have been swamp with work and honey do list since spring set in.... going to do test speed run on my project hpi hotbodies 1/8 ve8 tonite ..them tires are perfect match for typhon,, i have to get new set because mine ripped up..BASH-ON BROTHER
RCbashing the KRATON thanks bro, I know about the 🍯 do list...Lol. Work comes first man. Yeah I think you'll like these 28's on the buggies, not too big, just enough weight and extra ground clearance. Hope your time frees up some to let you get out. 👍👍 Love this new wheel setup!!! Did you tape yours before they ripped up?
Cool jumps, nice bashing and tires too bro I would use my TYPHON for bashing too but Noooo I like to keep them clean but one day I will lol.......
R/C CUSTOM thanks bro, she was so clean before this bash, gave her a near full teardown after the last hard one....Lol. Yeah it's more work no doubt after dirt bashing, but so much friggin fun!!! The Typhon is right at home dirt or street.👍👍😋😋😋😵🙋🙋🐒
Rich Duperbash It is a lot of work on cleaning it but it's worth it thou 👍🏼
Great bash man!
Edward Vinhateiro thanks man, had a great time. Missed filming the BIG ending by accident... Errrrrhhh, next time... Lol.😅😵😵🐒🙊🐒
Nice I just picked up a typhon last week it feels good to see this video this defiantly lets me know how tuff the ARRMA brand is thanks 👍🏾
Mobay876 thanks brother 👊!!! You've made a great choice no doubt. Posted a newer "Rip and Flip" Typhon video a few weeks ago that shows a good sample of speed and durability 🤘🤘😨😨😨😎💪👊👊
Another awesome bash Rich. Love the slo mo. Getting some great air. I would love to have that bash spot. If I ever get my computer back I'll be able to make some bash editing videos. I'm using a labtop right now to upload my vids and it so slow I can't even watch the vids on it it freezes lol
Kenny Melanko thanks so much brother. This spot is wicked fun, even better after some rain to tack the ground a bit. Jumps are sweet and plentiful!!! Missed taping the huge ending jumps Duhhhhh...never again will I make that button pushing mistake...Lol. Hope you get your stuff back bro. Nice pass with the Senton!!! 😵😵🐒🐒😋
Rich Duperbash your welcome. I'm sure their will be more jumps from you. You keep finding all these good spots. I hope I get it back. To expensive for another one. Lol. Hopefully soon. I'll have another senton run up in a day or two. A tad bit better speed but it's maxed out on 4s. Time for 6s action.
Kenny Melanko 6s should push hard even with the stock motor, looking forward to it bro 👍👍👍
Rich Duperbash thanks Rich me to. I can't wait to see what she got👍
Sick spot
Thing has got some boogie
Six Foot Productions thanks bro, this spot is among my favorite for sure. Bashing the Typhon is always an adventure geared up on 6s...Lol. The power to weight ratio is somewhat ridiculous.👍👍😋🙋🙋😵😵😵🐒🐒🐒.
Just got some put on tonight, with Kraton hubs. Ballooning like crazy on my stand!
Haven't ran it yet. Wondering if I should wrap with fishing string.
nice bash! nice video! ;))
Austria RC Vlbg thanks bro, much appreciated!!! 👍👍
rich I asked what this was like bashing on another video but after seeing this I have my answer this thing flies over this rough terrain with your set up and clears jumps effortlessly it is quick rig might have to look into one of these also great video rich I like it☺
carlo fois thanks bro. Just to clarify, this is my Truggified Typhon. Stock Typhon with added Kraton hexs, axels, and hubs. The other rig with SRC Terrain Crushers was my Outcast build with bigger towers, shocks, arms, and shafts. (Outcast dimensions). The Truggified Typhon is WAY FASTER. Much lighter and nimble and probably my favorite speed basher. MX28's are absolutely perfect size for this setup.😵😵👊
Rich Duperbash I'm on it I get you now sorry you have loads of modified rigs think I'm going to get one of these also I'm going to do what you have done.👍 I was watching this video the thing flies over what you put in its way flies over jumps too and you done a great job watching your videos give me loads of insight and confidance to do these and be happy with my set up keep up the great work Bro.
carlo fois thanks so much man, really appreciate it. That's what's awesome about these Arrmas, lots of versatility and shared parts between different models.👍👍👊
Rich Duperbash I agree I'm doing my shopping list now lol ☺ I'm definitely going to do one of these in next few months your welcome rich anytime good to speak with people with a vast knowledge on these rigs and your right the versatility aspect is awesome they all drive and feel completely different that's what I also love bout them the speed and durability my kraton took a beaten today.☺👍
carlo fois wanted to share that some have widened there Typhons for bigger 2.8, 17mm hex wheels by using hex adapters such as TD310269, by Team Durango. This is probably cheaper and easier than swapping for Kraton parts. Team Redcat and Team Associated also make adapters, but I don't have part numbers handy.👍👍
nice tires on your arrma rc..
nice video bro I'm either going to the pump track or that skate park in the morning after work.
Tdogg916 RC Bashing let me know bro, wanted to hit Granite in the AM, fixing the diff right now. Went to backflip off a chain link fence and my SRC Terrain Crushers got stuck in the links and stripped my input gear. Could use my Outcast, but it's due for service, too... Lol.👍👍
Ok I'm cool with going there I'll just go to that skate park in the AM not sure what time I'm getting off yet but it should be before 8am just let me know what time and I'll keep you updated
Tdogg916 RC Bashing I'm off tomorrow, just give me a heads up on the time and I'll be there. Not sure if they lock the turn gate or not until open.
Ok I will
Rich Duperbash I'm off so whatever time
just a quick question, I saw the manual under pivot ball maintenance, you need to remove the 2 spaces from the upper and lower arm suspension and you will be able to pull out the whole steering block? but I noticed that the pivot balls are threaded? shouldn't it to be we have to unscrew the top and bottom pivot balls before detaching it out from both of the upper and lower suspension arms?
Exceeded yes you need to unscrew the pillow balls with 2.5mm hex to do the full maintenance. I usually remove the red pillow ball nuts first, but you can just loosen them out a bit and remove pillow balls from A arms by alternating each one out with 2.5mm a few turns at a time each until they fully unscrew. Once off, with the caps removed, you push the balls out of the hubs, clean the black bushings inside, hubs, and balls, then just reassemble. Remember to keep A arms about ground level when removing and replacing balls. This makes it easier and avoids scratching up anything.
Awesome! And I know you've said it before, but what mods did you do to your hub/axle to accommodate?
Brad Adamski I swapped for Kraton version 2 hex's, axels, and hubs. This widens the stance about 1" overall, and allows for MT wheels. If you check eBay, you can sometimes score a good deal, otherwise it's like 70-80$ for retail.🐒🐒🐒
Nice 👍🏾
New sub
I'm thinking about getting one
gary mitchell that's awesome!!! Hard to beat for durability, performance, and seriously fast fun factor, especially for the price. Very versatile rig for street or dirt, really never gets old for me at least. Good luck whatever you decide and happy bashing!!! 👍👍🐒🐒🐒
I've always wondered how you find all these great bashing spots. Do you look them up on Google maps satellite view? or just drive around?
Richard Juarez I search them out, ask around, drive around, and keep my eyes open for new terrain anytime in the car. Going to start looking for spots with Google Earth maps. Trying to find a gravel pit within driving distance.👍👍
yeah, I tend to look up spots on Google maps on "satellite view" and just save the spot for a trip one day.
In this video, are those stock shocks and shock fluid? If so do you know the weight? You take some mean jumps without fear. How has the truck held out on you? Many breaking parts? If so which ones give you the most difficulty? I have an erevo and the duffs are horrible. That why I ask. I'm thinking about buying the Typhon. I want to bash and zip around a 1/10 local track. Do you recommend?
Mustafa Alemdag thanks brother. These are stock shocks/springs with 50 weight front, 40 rear I believe. I will double check when I get home in a bit, usually write it down when I service them. The Typhon is an AWESOME rig, especially for the price. Probably the best buggy out there for a RTR. Plenty of power even with stock electronics, particularly with 6s. I really don't break many parts, occasional shock shaft or shock rod end. Recommend running Hot Racing aluminum chassis supports and Tbone Racing front bumper. You will also bend or break wingmounts, but they are cheap to replace. 👍😵😵😵😲😲💪👊👊
Rich Duperbash Thanks man. Happy riding and keep the great vids coming.
dude I've been wanting those tires for a while since I saw bashing the kraton had them
zeus m84 yeah these 28s seem about perfect for a basher buggy setup. Still curious about the MX38s for the Kraton atleast. Still happy with the Backflips overall.🐒🐒🐒
Rich Duperbash i think they would be great for the outcast too I'm going to order them for my xmaxx when the get them back in stock, and I'm also debating whether I want a typhon or a senton have you ever driven a senton
zeus m84 I love my Typhon, haven't driven a Senton, but they're supposed to be tough as nails. I like the Typhon myself cuz it's great for doing higher speed street stuff and probably jumps further with less parachute effect from it's streamline body. The MX38s look great on the Outcast, just wondering if they'd be better on 4s. Think the extra wheel mass would be hard to control on 6s in the air and maybe on the ground. Probably would want an upgraded servo, too. Don't think RC Bashing the Kraton is running his on his Outcast anymore. He'd be a good person to check with on that for a solid opinion.
Rich Duperbash yea ur right I had my 3.8 trenchers on my outcast and it seemed bogged down
zeus m84 that's the thing about wheels/tires, they have to be a good overall fit for the wheelbase...etc. I have a few wheel sets I'd consider mistake purchases in hindsight. Sometimes it's trial and error, but it sucks to regret spending the $$$$ after the fact...Lol.😵😵😵
Did you had to modify anything to fit does 2.8 wheels?
omar olmedo yes I did. Had to swap for V2 Kraton hubs, axels, and hubs. Puts each wheel out another 1/2" for 1" wider stance total. Check eBay, otherwise it's about 80$ for parts off Tower. The axels are pricey. Some people have used Team Associated hex adapters, but probably puts a bit more lateral strain on the bearings...etc. As is now, the 2.8 tires are friggin sweet, but you need to tape them or fronts will balloon and rub the body when turning on hard throttle. 👍👍😵😵😵😵🙋🙋👊
So to truggify my typhon,all I need is Kraton 4wheel axles, 4 wheel hubs and 4wheel hexes and of course 4 f11 2.8 rims and tires?
Exceeded yep. Make sure you buy the 17mm hex 2.8 F11s. You can also do what others have done and just get hex adapters, probably much cheaper and easier. People have used Team associated, Redcat racing, and Team Durango # TD310269. This technically puts more strain on your bearings, but probably not that significant. 👍👍😵😵😲👊
thank you for your prompt reply! yes. kept browsing the 12MM premounted ones online.seems like they only have the unmounted ones in 17MMs. I'm still considering if I wana go this route on the typhon or just switching out tires on my serpent truggy(easier) compared to typhon HAHA. both are 6s capable just that the truggy has a saddle layout compared to the conventional battery on one side layout.damn I am lazy. but not lazy for online shopping lol.
Exceeded I hear you bro, but unmounted is the way to go. Tape your tires with 2" Gorilla tape and glue them on the F11s, otherwise ballooning is ridiculous and will rub the body violently when turning on throttle. Granted I drive mostly 6s, but even on 4s these Prolines simply swell too much untaped with these power systems.👍👍
oh yea! thanks for that tip forgotten about going full throttle and tires ballooning! moreover they do not have mounted ones in 17mm so that's good too!i will get the 2" gorilla tape to stick on my tires. just one layer is enough? or more is better? the route to mx28 for my truggy is easier but for the arrma is so much nicer.dang.decisions.
Exceeded I usually clean the inside tire with alcohol, let dry and then do just one wrap overlapping the ends by about an inch. Easier to turn tire inside out first then tape. Good luck whatever you decide, but taping is worth the effort no doubt.👍👍
Can you do a side by side video with slash4x4 and truggyfied typhon really would like to see them together
Gerald Childers I certainly could, but my Slash is stripped of electronics at the moment and has a mystery front diff issue that needs solving. Just rebuilt it awhile back, but something is amiss. Ironically, the BLX185 combo in my Typhon came out of my Slash 😱!!! Not sure what my plans are with it at this point. Had been thinking about doing a speed project 🤔. I'm currently doing 2-3 other rebuilds. The Slash is a great rig when properly upgraded, but I'd recommend the Typhon over it any day. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
I’ve been wanting to buy a new Typhon. What’s the point of making it “truggified” and not just going with the truggy Arrma offers? Thanks!
3literheater a Truggified Typhon is quicker and more nimble than a Kraton or Talion, but more stable and better for jumping than a stock Typhon. It isn't ideal for really rugged terrain, but it just plain rips for speed bashing. 😎💪👊👊
What battery did you use?
Back then I was probably using an SMC 6s hardpack. I now run mostly Hobbystar 6s 5000mah 100C single hardpacks with a single EC5 connector off the ESC. 🍻😎💪👊👊
how does this compare to talion?
Renagade it's faster and much squirrellier 😨. Incredibly nimble for speed bashing. Way more durable with the shorter chassis, arms, links, and driveshafts. Still my favorite RC all around. 😎💪👊👊
bro great vid lets get it seen!!!!!! me and a large group that want to help you lots are already helping youb from that group look through the comments the ones i liked are them hit my channel love to help............
POOR MAN RC thanks bro, will do, much appreciated and happy bashing.👍👍😵😵😵😜🐒🐒🙋
ill be happy when you are at 1000 subs :):):):):):):):)
