@@MikeStallone I'm currently looking at buying something arrma for speed running.. i was thinking the typhon 6s v4.. all in cost £459 UK, maybe stretch it eventually. But the limitless does look super cool but its just under £400 as a roller. What would you recommend? I'm leaning towards the typhon as its rtr lol
rmalik84s3 Thats a hard decision. I actually have both cars! If you’re only going to do speed running/street bashing I’d go limitless hands down. If you want to keep costs low you can get a used stock blx 185 system and a power hd 23kg servo. That’s what I’m running in my limitless and I’m consistently getting over 90mph speed runs. On the other hand I love my typhon because it’s so versatile.. I send it to the moon off jumps and then with a pinion, spur and wheel change I can run over 100mph. So I’m my opinion. Strictly street use get a limitless or infraction. For versatility/RTR get the typhon. Either way you can’t go wrong!
Thanks for sharing all your tips on getting to 100mph without spending a fortune. The 6s Typhon is such an all around buggy and with proper technique and conditions it's incredibly fast.
I’m new to the RC world and my 1st purchase was a Traxxas Rustler 4x4.. I plan to do some upgrades to get more speed but after watching your video I know I’ll be Getting the Typhon 6s too! I’ll also probably watch your video over and over until I get the same results you got lol.. So Thanks for not keeping your setup a secret. 💯 Super Clean Mustang too!
im a new subscriber and i wanna thank you for sharing the knowledge which will help a newbie like me and even the pros....most of the guys wont share their secrets lol....
Thank you! And you’re welcome man I try to be transparent when it comes to these kinds of things. I struggled for months to hit 100 with my typhon so if I can help someone get there in less time that’s a win in my book!
How do I get to the 2nd part of this video? With a limitless center dif, where do I get the parts. I have a limitless center dif & don't know how to make it fit the typhoon 6s. Thanks.
Hey Mike, awesome video and thanks for the great information regarding your setup. I have two questions for you, 1st what diff fluids are you running in the front and rear? 2nd, what shock oil are you using for speed runs? Thanks for any information.
Hey Steve, thank you I appreciate it!! Great questions! My typhon was a truggified basher before the speed run live. So 60 in the front and 30 in the rear. Most guys like to run 100/100. However since I run a center spool it shouldn’t really matter too much. For your 2nd question. I use stock shock oil. Never had an issue yet and I’ve made many passes over 100mph
@@MikeStallone hey Mike great tips, I just got the V5, and looking to add the spool with 27t pinion. Whats the temps like on your car with the limitless spool. Many thanks man
Hello Mike, please inform me about the motorcooler, which type did you bought and how did you installed it. Thanks in advance, Greetings from the Netherlands.
Would you prefer the dboots goons with aero dish or that come with the limitless or the ones that come with the infraction? Wich ones would be better for the typhoon for speed? Thank you great video
Hi, I'm sorry I'm a bit confused, I looked for the LiPo you show, but with the measures it doesn't fit the Typhon 6s. (I also have the Typhon and I was looking for two 3s LiPo to put together, we are not there with the measures). Did I miss something? 😖 Thanks and greetings from Italy.
Great point, the battery I used in my typhon 6s is on paper too big but you can squeeze it in without making any modifications. You could also look for cnhl g+ 3s batteries as well.
i just got my typhon second hand. blew out the wheel bearing lol. but I have the gears on order. cant find that battery on amazon. all the 70 c are around 2200 mah. the 6200 mah or higher are 90 and 120 c. any help would be appreciated
Awesome tips bro, I can't wait to get back to doing some runs again. That's the same battery I use, it's freaking awesome!! I have modified my Typhon 6S a bit myself & it rides soo much better now. I did swap out the ESC for a Castle creations MM2, with the addition of my own custom cap pack. Also swapped out the receiver for a Radiolink RC4GS, much better range. Like you, I dropped the suspension low by using the droop screws. I did swap out the springs for Tekno springs, way better handling now, the original I found to be a tad too soft considering the weight of car. Running the stock diffs & using a 26T pinion (modified to fit), i was able to push 70mph. I was using GRP Tyres, S4 compound. The car completely stock with the included high speed gear was only able to achieve 65mph. Which I guess is close enough to their advertised 70mph out of the box. It's definitely an awesome ride with tons of potential! Awesome job 👍
@@MikeStallone wow, I just came across this video again a year later lol. Since then, I have finally broken the 100mph line, up to 122mph so far on my Limitless. And the Typhon 6S I originally commented on above, I have recently done a serious overhaul rebuild & stretched her out with a kraton 6S chassis. I put limitless shocks & tower on the front. I made some custom aluminum side skirts, rotated the motor mount. I have an XLX2 ESC in her with a hobbywing 2200kv motor till my castle 1721 2400kv motor gets in. Running a 34/34 gearing with the 2200kv motor & only 4S, she hit 89mph. I'm going to run her on 6S before I put in the new motor in, she'll definitely push over 100mph easily. But my goal with the new motor, the Castle 1721 2400kv, is to get her into the ~120mph on 4S. Hope you're still running & pushing the limits on speed! 😎👍
I love the futaba 3pv. It doesn’t have a gyro which I prefer for speed running, and the range with this receiver is insane! I heard you can even get further range with the futaba 4 and the 7 series
Hey mike I just got my typhon like 2 months ago how can I make it faster but where I can still bash it in the dirt ? Like doing backflips when it’s stoped all that ??
Do you have a part number for the spool? I'm looking all over, all I can find is the center diff with the 46t but nothing with a 34. Unless I need to get that and then swap spur gears?
I have the typhoon v2 6s but my motor isn’t like the one u have in this video I have the spectrum which is rounded so how can fans be mounted on this one ?
I put the spool and the new pinion into my 6s typhon but I have not run it yet. My question is can I go bigger on the pinion without damaging my electronics. I would say about a 30tooth pinion
Great video Mike!! I own the ARRMA Notorious / KRATON / Infraction but thinking of buying a 6s v5 Typhon for speed runs only!! So you recommend installing the Arrma LIMITLESS 6s - Pinion Gear (27t steel Mod 1 5mm shaft infraction AR109011 & the Arrma LIMITLESS 6s - Spool Gear Set (complete shaft spacers cup 34t AR109011 from JennysRC and everything fits in the 6s Typhon -correct? Instead of the #CNHL, I run the SMC Racing True Spec Grahenes for my v2 Infraction and get great results, actually 95PB stock with my Infraction v2.....
That’s awesome about your pb with the infraction. I’m not sure those batteries will fit the stock trays in the typhon but you can give it a try. I would start speed running the car with the stock 20t speed pinion first, then bump to 24t pinion. And get the car dialed in. Then once it’s going straight throw in the spool from the limitless and the 27t pinion. But with this setup you really need a long road and the ability to get on the throttle very slowly or the esc will cut out.
@@jensmannens7398 Thats awesome!! I got 103mph with my typhon before I turned it back into a truggified dirt beast haha. I definitely could’ve pushed a little more but switched to running my limitless for speed runs
I just ran mine today with a 30t pinion and a 41 tooth spur (not on a spool, still have the center diff.) I hit 98.5 mph on the Garmin before the ESE cut me off (I see you talked about that in this video, I assume it was the thermal shut off.) But anyway it was still pulling hard and probably would have surpassed 100 had the ESE not shut down on me. I'm impressed with what the stock electronics can do. I can pull 95+ mph passes all day with my set up and probably could hit 100 if I can avoid the ESE shutting off on me.
That’s awesome man! 🤙🏼 I go over how to squeak out that extra mph or 2 in the vid. Basically it’s all in your throttle pull. The longer you can space out your run the faster you’ll go!
@@MikeStallone Yep that's exactly it. I even dropped the burst setting down to 1, hoping that will also help in some way. I'm gunna eventually upgrade the ESE but I want to play around with the stock system first. You're right about how people react to it though they're pretty much dumbfounded at how fast the car is lol.
@@gtgromer5232 if you want to keep the stock motor and esc here’s my best recommendation. Have 2 sets of gears. Once you get good at it, it should only take 5 minutes to swap, only thing you have to wait on is loctite. 34t spool, 27t pinion for 100+. 16-20t pinion and stock 50t center diff for around 60mph bashing and drifting. It’s really hard to do both out of the same gear set with the stock electronics! This is the best way I found to do both with the same car
How can I get a little bit more top speed on my typhon 6s while still being able to bash and run off-road? It seems that a project like this is impossible due to heating issues?
Do u have a arrma limitless? I want to see how u set up for that kit. Coz some owners cannot do it right even they put alots of money... Good vids by the way. Subscribed
When you was talking about the receiver it seem like the name of the receiver was edited out. I was hoping to get the name of it cause I’m looking for somthing with range for speed runs.
Do you think changing stiffer shock oil in the shocks 80w would keep the car lower and because everything I hit the car the front suspension comes up and then air gets in the front and the car lifts off the ground at high speed
hey man, I know I'm seeing this video late, really cool stuff!! I did something to my typhon (basher) if you cut out a slit right above the front "window" and fold in the tab, itll help can some air inside the shell, and since the back is completely open the air wont have a problem leaving.
Hi hru I'm new to the rc hobby just 2 months in so far I have 2 rc cars arrma kraton 8s and arrma talion 6s exb would those tips apply to the talion also I was able to get 74mph with the the stock electronics and the included 23t pinion I wanna go faster would the 27t pinion and 34t spool work without going into thermal i did see someone use 28t pinion and 34t spool but it kept overheating
I used the futaba r2006gs receiver paired with a futaba 3pv. I’m currently using that on my limitless as well and have been 130mph so far. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Awesome video ,what fans do u recommend for a 6s typhon,and how big of a pinion will the fan’s alow u to run without overheating? (Can u fun the speed gear it comes with)
Thanks Marc! It depends on your budget and what you want to do with it. I ran on the cheaper end of budgets for mine and went with Yeah Racing fans. Less than $30 and they work great! Regarding the speed gear.. only use it for street use otherwise you run the risk of over heating. The stock gearing on the grass is actually pretty quick!
Hi mike, I’m new to speed runs, I know it’s not the best platform for it, but I bought a 2wd xl5 rustler... I converted it to brushless with a 3300kv motor that can run 4s and a 120a esc that can run 6s. I run 2x 7.2v nimhs in parallel.... my problem is, my suspension is too soft for how fast it is, I’ve put some preload spacers on the suspension, but i don’t know how much I should really be putting on? Thanks, any other tips for setting up the rustler? I know it’s not the best platform for it, but it’s my only rc car that can take the power (I’ve also got two old Tamiyas but they will never take that much power😂) thanks mate👍
Thanks for the support and great question! I’ve heard of people making rustlers fly! Candidly, I have never used one so I don’t want to steer you in the wrong direction. It sounds like you did all great things. Maybe once you get a stronger suspension just add lipos and that’ll increase your speed a lot! Sorry I couldn’t be more of a help but I don’t want to give you advice unless I’m confident about it!
Mike Stallone that’s ok, I understand👍 thanks anyway mate. I haven’t used it at full power yet... because I run nimhs, low voltage cutoff has been a problem🤣 it comes with it set at 3.1v and as soon as I plug the nimhs in, it goes into cutoff, I’ve had it at 50mph in low voltage cutoff, so I’m guessing once I’ve got new tyres, and got the programming card to turn lvd off, I should be knocking on the doors of 80mph? It’s got 47.5k rpm and I run 17-50 gearing. A vxl rustler with 38k rpm does 75mph on similar gearing... so another 10k rpm and more torque... shouldn’t that lead to it being much much faster?🤣
Car Addiction wow you’ll get there soon! My best recommendation then would be to find a good road with A LOT of space. And take your time getting to full throttle. Pull the throttle as slow as you possibly can. I’m usually not even 3/4 throttle by the time I pass me. That should help get more speed out of that setup. Sounds like you’re on the right track man! Let me know how it goes!
Mike Stallone thanks mate👍 can’t wait to get the lvd off and finally unleash the beast! May need to get some grp tyres aswell....🤣 can I dm you on insta?
Thanks, Mike. Good info man if you really think about it you want to ease on it plus the tires are getting hotter as you go motor receiving air stays cooler in a sense. Kool👍🏾.
Love the old school bro! And nice vid! Solid on stock electronics. They won't last but they'll do it 😂 Did you say you plan to run the limitless against the mustang?? 😂
Thanks man! It’s a 69 Mach 1, we’ve also got a 2000whp twin turbo 69 chevelle. I’ve already raced the mustang with the limitless but the chevelle is what I really want to race 😂
Motor Toys yeah it’s on my channel. The mustang is stock so it got smoked 😂. It’s hard for a real car to pull as hard as these rc’s. And mine isn’t setup for drag racing like yours lol. The chevelle would be a good race for you
@@MikeStallone haha I'm gonna check it out!!! Would love to do a video and run the Chevelle! With 0-60 in under a second and 0-100 in under 3, I think the Typhon XL or Talion is up to the challenge on 8s! 😂🤣 That would be awesome! Gonna check out your vid now 👍
Rcdirtslinger Racing That would be awesome, haven’t seen it done and I know it won’t fit on a stock length typhon. But if you stretch it, it might fit with some work! Are you planning on trying?
Good info. Did you have to buy an aftermarket motor mount to accommodate the bigger pinion? I've got a stock 6s Typhon that I'm gunna set up for speed runs. Not going to go too crazy for now. I'm going to bump up the pinion to 23 and drop the spur down to a 42. Not quite as aggressive as the gears you're running, but I figure the car will be 80+ mph with ease on gears like that. I have a Rustler that I put a Mamba Monster in with a 2200kv Castle motor lol. It is stupidly overpowered to say the least and definitely a challenge to drive once the motor starts waking up when making a pass. I like the AWD platform of the Typhon and bought mine a couple years ago with future speed runs in mind. Thanks again for the good info and God bless you.
I put the v4 motor mount on this car because it’s the v3. Otherwise the stock fits all the gearing this setup can handle! 23/42 should be 80mph gearing! Good luck!! The awd let’s you accelerate much quicker that rwd. I wouldn’t trust a rwd passing me at 100mph either haha. Thanks again appreciate the support
Hey thanks for making this video. I have an Arrma infraction v2 and I’m interested in trying out the limitless spool and pinion. Do you think there will be a noticeable difference? I mainly do light bashing and speed/drag. Thanks!
@@MikeStallone thanks for the reply, I just bought my infraction v2 a few weeks ago and came across your channel. You have lots of great content. So would you recommend raising the pinion? What exactly do you mean by that? I’m simply looking to maximize the infractions potential in its stock form.
I got my nephew the typhon 3 BLX and a bit of tuning and yes I used a 4S battery and I reached 78 mph. Wayy more than good enough for me and especially for him. I don’t see the reason unless your racing for money. P.S. you need a quarter mile to do it. At least.
That’s awesome hopefully he likes it. There’s really no money in the hobby it’s more of the challenge to see how fast you can go. You’re comfortable driving at 78mph while others like myself love to push the boundaries of what’s possible. There’s no right or wrong as long as you’re having fun! My 100mph+ runs usually take up 1500 feet at the minimum
@@MikeStallone Not gonna lie there is a little rush once you pass about 60mph. I was going to buy the big brother the Typhon 6S but was thinking since Ive been through almost a dozen rcs in my life that maybe I should build my own from scratch. I haven't been to a place where I had 1500 ft of road so maybe I might not be maxing it. Well see but your video got me thinking using my 3d printers I have I could build something really amazing. Happy Halloween!
Why do people wanna ruin their cars torque for excess speed that U can't even use. It's not how fast you go it's how quick you get there. I keep my Vorza on 15/48, gives me 50mph which is plenty of speed,but torque is insane and that's what U want, trigger it n watch it fly instantly. Bashing RCS you'll never hit top speed it's just not worth losing your torque for...
It’s all personal preference. I have other rc’s I bash with that I would never use this gearing in for the reasons you mentioned. However when it comes to my speed cars, I build them to hit the highest possible speed and that is what I like to do with them. Saying someone is ruining their rc car because they’re doing something YOU don’t like makes no sense. 50mph may be fast for what you like, but it’s actually extremely slow for a speed car. Just food for thought next time you try to bash on others for enjoying the hobby in a different way than you do.
Then your car goes 100 and flips and brakes into little pieces and you have to start all over again why don't you just have the car goes around 60 mph and that way you can have a bash 😉 and keep your car in one peace. Top end is In the name .
Link for receiver! amzn.to/3fmdcxl
This receiver has two antennas. How do you mount in the car? Because those antennas is to be in angle which other.

Ok

@@jensmannens7398 Thats awesome!! I got 103mph with my typhon before I turned it back into a truggified dirt beast haha. I definitely could’ve pushed a little more but switched to running my limitless for speed runs
Nice man i almost got you haha ;)
@@jensmannens7398 you never had me, you never had your car 🏎 😂
Hahaha 😅😅
I just ran mine today with a 30t pinion and a 41 tooth spur (not on a spool, still have the center diff.) I hit 98.5 mph on the Garmin before the ESE cut me off (I see you talked about that in this video, I assume it was the thermal shut off.) But anyway it was still pulling hard and probably would have surpassed 100 had the ESE not shut down on me. I'm impressed with what the stock electronics can do. I can pull 95+ mph passes all day with my set up and probably could hit 100 if I can avoid the ESE shutting off on me.
That’s awesome man! 🤙🏼 I go over how to squeak out that extra mph or 2 in the vid. Basically it’s all in your throttle pull. The longer you can space out your run the faster you’ll go!
@@MikeStallone Yep that's exactly it. I even dropped the burst setting down to 1, hoping that will also help in some way. I'm gunna eventually upgrade the ESE but I want to play around with the stock system first. You're right about how people react to it though they're pretty much dumbfounded at how fast the car is lol.
Hi mate, thanks for the great video, I have a question how many K differential oil you recommend to put in the front n rear,thanks
Hey mike, i got a 6s typhon v5, do you know if I can use the center diff and still use that same gearing?
No, the limitless spool is 34 teeth and the center diff is 50t. Also a 27t pinion won’t fit with a 50t center diff. Congrats on the news car!
@@MikeStallone ok thanks, so I can’t put different spurs on with the center diff still in there?
@@gtgromer5232 you can it all depends what you are looking to do with the car. Let’s start there
@@MikeStallone well I’d like to hit over a 100 for a bit and then bring it back down a bit for bashing / track
@@gtgromer5232 if you want to keep the stock motor and esc here’s my best recommendation. Have 2 sets of gears. Once you get good at it, it should only take 5 minutes to swap, only thing you have to wait on is loctite. 34t spool, 27t pinion for 100+.
16-20t pinion and stock 50t center diff for around 60mph bashing and drifting.
It’s really hard to do both out of the same gear set with the stock electronics! This is the best way I found to do both with the same car
How can I get a little bit more top speed on my typhon 6s while still being able to bash and run off-road? It seems that a project like this is impossible due to heating issues?
YOOOOOOO THIS REALLY WORKRED!!thx you so much you da beast
Love to hear that! Glad it worked for you 🤙🏼
Do u have a arrma limitless? I want to see how u set up for that kit. Coz some owners cannot do it right even they put alots of money... Good vids by the way. Subscribed
When you was talking about the receiver it seem like the name of the receiver was edited out. I was hoping to get the name of it cause I’m looking for somthing with range for speed runs.
Sorry about that! Search Futaba R2006GS 6-Ch 2.4GHz S-FHSS Receiver FUTL7606
Mike Stallone thank you! 👍👍
Anytime! If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
Mike Stallone thanks, I appreciate that. Btw great channel, look forward to more videos from you..
That means a lot thank you! Much more to come. What kind of vids would you like to see or see more of?
How about for drag racing will this work for that 132ft
Do you think changing stiffer shock oil in the shocks 80w would keep the car lower and because everything I hit the car the front suspension comes up and then air gets in the front and the car lifts off the ground at high speed
Shock oil won’t really change much. The biggest thing is to make sure the car is raked
Excellent video
Hi, i have typhon v2 with stock motor n esc..what pinion n spur u prefer for speedrun?stock now 15/50..Thank u😊
Great information 👍. Thank you for the vid.
I’m fixing to try drag racing with mine . Just need to figure out what gears to run
Good video. Another great battery pack for the money are Hoovo batteries.
Thanks
hey man, I know I'm seeing this video late, really cool stuff!! I did something to my typhon (basher) if you cut out a slit right above the front "window" and fold in the tab, itll help can some air inside the shell, and since the back is completely open the air wont have a problem leaving.
Hi hru I'm new to the rc hobby just 2 months in so far I have 2 rc cars arrma kraton 8s and arrma talion 6s exb would those tips apply to the talion also I was able to get 74mph with the the stock electronics and the included 23t pinion I wanna go faster would the 27t pinion and 34t spool work without going into thermal i did see someone use 28t pinion and 34t spool but it kept overheating
How do you set the shocks so low. And can I put the shocks and shock tower off a infraction on the typhon?
Yes you can, I actually am using the standard size shocks and towers here. Just maxed out the droop screws
Can you car park bash with that gearing mate? Like cone racing on tarmac? Thanks champ!
Best keep to centre diff and smaller pinion for bashing
Do I need the limitless v1 34t spool
What receiver did you use?
I used the futaba r2006gs receiver paired with a futaba 3pv. I’m currently using that on my limitless as well and have been 130mph so far. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Very nice video Bro 🔥🔥🏎️👍🏾
Thanks bro! 🔥 hope it helps!
Awesome video ,what fans do u recommend for a 6s typhon,and how big of a pinion will the fan’s alow u to run without overheating?
(Can u fun the speed gear it comes with)
Thanks Marc! It depends on your budget and what you want to do with it. I ran on the cheaper end of budgets for mine and went with Yeah Racing fans. Less than $30 and they work great!
Regarding the speed gear.. only use it for street use otherwise you run the risk of over heating. The stock gearing on the grass is actually pretty quick!
This is just awesome bro for stock amazing
Hi mike, I’m new to speed runs, I know it’s not the best platform for it, but I bought a 2wd xl5 rustler... I converted it to brushless with a 3300kv motor that can run 4s and a 120a esc that can run 6s. I run 2x 7.2v nimhs in parallel.... my problem is, my suspension is too soft for how fast it is, I’ve put some preload spacers on the suspension, but i don’t know how much I should really be putting on? Thanks, any other tips for setting up the rustler? I know it’s not the best platform for it, but it’s my only rc car that can take the power (I’ve also got two old Tamiyas but they will never take that much power😂) thanks mate👍
Thanks for the support and great question! I’ve heard of people making rustlers fly! Candidly, I have never used one so I don’t want to steer you in the wrong direction. It sounds like you did all great things. Maybe once you get a stronger suspension just add lipos and that’ll increase your speed a lot! Sorry I couldn’t be more of a help but I don’t want to give you advice unless I’m confident about it!
Mike Stallone that’s ok, I understand👍 thanks anyway mate. I haven’t used it at full power yet... because I run nimhs, low voltage cutoff has been a problem🤣 it comes with it set at 3.1v and as soon as I plug the nimhs in, it goes into cutoff, I’ve had it at 50mph in low voltage cutoff, so I’m guessing once I’ve got new tyres, and got the programming card to turn lvd off, I should be knocking on the doors of 80mph? It’s got 47.5k rpm and I run 17-50 gearing. A vxl rustler with 38k rpm does 75mph on similar gearing... so another 10k rpm and more torque... shouldn’t that lead to it being much much faster?🤣
Car Addiction wow you’ll get there soon! My best recommendation then would be to find a good road with A LOT of space. And take your time getting to full throttle. Pull the throttle as slow as you possibly can. I’m usually not even 3/4 throttle by the time I pass me. That should help get more speed out of that setup. Sounds like you’re on the right track man! Let me know how it goes!
Mike Stallone thanks mate👍 can’t wait to get the lvd off and finally unleash the beast! May need to get some grp tyres aswell....🤣 can I dm you on insta?
Yeah of course!
Would that work with the typhon 3s as well or does it have to be the 6s
Has to be 6s but you can still get your 3s typhon going fast! Did you upgrade the esc?
Did you put a jumper on one of your esc outputs ?
You mean to make it so I can use just one battery?
How fast did u go with the 25 /50
Great video. Excellent advice
Thank you!
What receiver is it
Are they the white or the silver hoons?
Stock
Thanks, Mike. Good info man if you really think about it you want to ease on it plus the tires are getting hotter as you go motor receiving air stays cooler in a sense. Kool👍🏾.
Absolutely. Thank you!
Love the old school bro! And nice vid! Solid on stock electronics. They won't last but they'll do it 😂
Did you say you plan to run the limitless against the mustang?? 😂
Thanks man! It’s a 69 Mach 1, we’ve also got a 2000whp twin turbo 69 chevelle. I’ve already raced the mustang with the limitless but the chevelle is what I really want to race 😂
@@MikeStallone thanks bro! And that's awesome! Wow I would love to run it with my TP Typhon XL on 8s 😂
@@MikeStallone do you have a vid of the mustang race? Lol
Motor Toys yeah it’s on my channel. The mustang is stock so it got smoked 😂. It’s hard for a real car to pull as hard as these rc’s. And mine isn’t setup for drag racing like yours lol. The chevelle would be a good race for you
@@MikeStallone haha I'm gonna check it out!!! Would love to do a video and run the Chevelle! With 0-60 in under a second and 0-100 in under 3, I think the Typhon XL or Talion is up to the challenge on 8s! 😂🤣 That would be awesome! Gonna check out your vid now 👍
Awesome tips my friend. Even better that your a mustang man very nice .
Thank you! I love anything fast haha. My dad and I built a twin turbo 69 chevelle as well
@@MikeStallone oh man that's another one of my favorite cars . Bet that will scat .
15% off CNHL batteries here! bit.ly/3q8a89Y
Helloo. I got 6s battery 6.0mah 75c. But my problem it is not fit on my battery tray in my arrma 6s typhon
paolo sangil did you go with the CNHL?
@@MikeStallone not yet. But i have turnigy 6s turnugy 75c 500mah
What center diff did you use ? And pinion ? What brand?
I have 34t spool but my 27t pinion cant reach for the center diff
paolo sangil I go over every detail in my video 🤙🏼
Great videos thank you sir
What do you recommend I change the diff fluid too?
Thanks for sharing
A car guy's perspective... Definitely agree.
What motor do you use
The whole point of this video is I’m using the stock motor and esc
Can the limitless body r infraction fit on typhoon 6s ?
Rcdirtslinger Racing That would be awesome, haven’t seen it done and I know it won’t fit on a stock length typhon. But if you stretch it, it might fit with some work! Are you planning on trying?
Mike Stallone yea. I’ll try it one day just to see
Mike Stallone it won’t work they both 3” longer wheelbase
That would be really sweet tho! Are you planning on trying any other bodies out? That’s the one thing I didn’t experiment with yet.
Good info. Did you have to buy an aftermarket motor mount to accommodate the bigger pinion? I've got a stock 6s Typhon that I'm gunna set up for speed runs. Not going to go too crazy for now. I'm going to bump up the pinion to 23 and drop the spur down to a 42. Not quite as aggressive as the gears you're running, but I figure the car will be 80+ mph with ease on gears like that. I have a Rustler that I put a Mamba Monster in with a 2200kv Castle motor lol. It is stupidly overpowered to say the least and definitely a challenge to drive once the motor starts waking up when making a pass. I like the AWD platform of the Typhon and bought mine a couple years ago with future speed runs in mind. Thanks again for the good info and God bless you.
I put the v4 motor mount on this car because it’s the v3. Otherwise the stock fits all the gearing this setup can handle! 23/42 should be 80mph gearing! Good luck!! The awd let’s you accelerate much quicker that rwd. I wouldn’t trust a rwd passing me at 100mph either haha. Thanks again appreciate the support
Hey thanks for making this video. I have an Arrma infraction v2 and I’m interested in trying out the limitless spool and pinion. Do you think there will be a noticeable difference? I mainly do light bashing and speed/drag. Thanks!
With the infraction v2 I believe people have gotten away with just raising the pinion because the diff gears are a higher gear ratio.
@@MikeStallone thanks for the reply, I just bought my infraction v2 a few weeks ago and came across your channel. You have lots of great content. So would you recommend raising the pinion? What exactly do you mean by that? I’m simply looking to maximize the infractions potential in its stock form.
@@williamsamaniego1032 thanks so much that really means a lot! Feel free to message me on instagram and I can explain in more detail
Hey Mike
I really don’t like the pistil transmitter do you recommend other ? X9 lite or something like that ?
Could u hit me wit an actual part list for the typhon v5 6s
Great
I got my nephew the typhon 3 BLX and a bit of tuning and yes I used a 4S battery and I reached 78 mph. Wayy more than good enough for me and especially for him. I don’t see the reason unless your racing for money.
P.S. you need a quarter mile to do it. At least.
That’s awesome hopefully he likes it. There’s really no money in the hobby it’s more of the challenge to see how fast you can go. You’re comfortable driving at 78mph while others like myself love to push the boundaries of what’s possible. There’s no right or wrong as long as you’re having fun!
My 100mph+ runs usually take up 1500 feet at the minimum
@@MikeStallone Not gonna lie there is a little rush once you pass about 60mph. I was going to buy the big brother the Typhon 6S but was thinking since Ive been through almost a dozen rcs in my life that maybe I should build my own from scratch. I haven't been to a place where I had 1500 ft of road so maybe I might not be maxing it. Well see but your video got me thinking using my 3d printers I have I could build something really amazing. Happy Halloween!
Have a great Halloween! If you end up getting a 6s typhon and have any questions feel free to ask 🤙🏼
Where is the video of you going 100 mph?
Thanks bro i like😍
Thank you! Hope it helps
Get 6s wing lower
Why do people wanna ruin their cars torque for excess speed that U can't even use. It's not how fast you go it's how quick you get there.
I keep my Vorza on 15/48, gives me 50mph which is plenty of speed,but torque is insane and that's what U want, trigger it n watch it fly instantly. Bashing RCS you'll never hit top speed it's just not worth losing your torque for...
It’s all personal preference. I have other rc’s I bash with that I would never use this gearing in for the reasons you mentioned. However when it comes to my speed cars, I build them to hit the highest possible speed and that is what I like to do with them.
Saying someone is ruining their rc car because they’re doing something YOU don’t like makes no sense. 50mph may be fast for what you like, but it’s actually extremely slow for a speed car. Just food for thought next time you try to bash on others for enjoying the hobby in a different way than you do.
Hooking and cooking sounds like it’s only legal in Las Vegas.
😂😂😂😂
Nice pony.
69 Mach 1 😎
Thanks for this video! Also check out my car drawings and let me know if you're interested to have a drawing of your mustang 😉
We sold the mustang but have a sweet twin turbo 69 Chevelle if you’d like to draw it
Gearing gearing gearing
So it's not stock
69 Mach 1!!! Who cares about the rc car?! 😆
Then your car goes 100 and flips and brakes into little pieces and you have to start all over again why don't you just have the car goes around 60 mph and that way you can have a bash 😉 and keep your car in one peace. Top end is In the name .
not everybody want to bash some of us like to speed run
Are you guys the ones to get smacked by the car in the ankle
I’ve seen someone get hit by a rc car. What’s that have to do with this vid?
obnoxiously loud outtro music
Yeah sorry about that haha. That was when I was still learning how to edit!
Would the v2 limitless pinion and spool work just the same?
