Tamyia takeover time.
It's a great stable car. very important to lighten it as much as possible and then it's competitive yet VERY durable compared to other cars. I raced mine for 2 seasons
it's great to see you do a deep dive into a non "top tier" car. id love to see a skilled racer run a bunch of cars (all set up properly and with choice of tyres) and compare best lap times from a series of laps on the same track / conditions with each car. it's very rare that someone can out drive their car compared to how common it is for someone to buy the absolute best and not then really drive very well, with the better car making up for some of their shortcomings.
Buggy doesn’t look bad out there. It’s good to see some diversity on the track.
great video man, one advantage that the tlr typhon has is that if arrma can keep this car in this version for the eternity, you know you'll have part support any time in the future, big brands make revisions and updates to buggies and that means parts changes and your kit holds no value and you won't find parts for it, that's why Traxxas slash is so reliable. it has been the same for 15+ years
Ive raced this car for a few years now, prior to this it had been a few years since i predominantly switched ro 10th scale. Ive ran most brands, and my clapped out mugen was ready to be retired, so i picked this up. My home track is hoosier hobbyplex, an extremely high grip indoor track. With a bit of a driver mod(going on 20 years of racing), it is quite capable. We dont have much 8th scale support but around here its hard to find a shop that doesnt have arrma parts well stocked and that sold me. For people interested in racing give it a try! Just grab a couple packs of diff gaskets a o rings for the shocks also and go enjoy racing. Ps: Kevin Tran is one of the only other people giving good advice in the facebook groups as most of the community are bashers who i dont think take racers advice very well!
Extremely important video, I'm glad someone who actually races finally made a video on this rig.
The TLR Typhon is a great car, but its only major difference vs the 6s Typhon is the chassis, shocks, and arms. I think they're a good entry level car if you're still very on the fence with racing, but you really want to race, put the money in a more certified platform like Tekno or Associated.
the TLR typhon also has hinge pin adjustments with the pill inserts whereas the 6s just has centered holes at its ABCD blocks
I bought my son and I the Losi 8ight RTR’s and they’ve been awesome. Full stock other than topping off diffs and lock tighting every thing we finished 6th and 7th out of 10 at our local track for our first ever RC race. Needless to say I spent 1,250 on 2 cars and some racers spent over 3 grand on there kits cars that we either beat or nearly beat.
Hobao VSE & VSE2 might also fit into this category.
The Losi looks like the most sensible option, if parts will be easily sourced of course
Just went on Jennie's RC new chassis for 50 bucks half the price as everyone else. Grab enough parts to damn near rebuild the whole car. Arms will swap with my MXB8R ECO.
Cool to see folks using this model on the track 👍👍 I use the electronics from the 6s in my Tekno EB48.4 and ET48 2.0 although I changed the esc settings.
Great video! I bought my TLR Typhon on a great sale through Amain to dip my toe into 8th scale racing. I have never driven another 8th scale buggy though so I have no idea where to start on tuning. This video definitely gave me a great starting point. I can attest to the durability of this as I have crashed this buggy way harder than any of my RC’s multiple times and I have only slightly cracked my wing. I always watch your videos when they drop, keep up the good work.
i put a max 8 g2 sensored combo in my TLR typhon for casual track days. $200 combo, works great
I bought the tlr tuned over the weekend, and here someone made a fresh video on it!!! Thanks
Got one for my son 10 to race with. RTR for 419 on Amazon. He's doing well with it, and it's very similar to my MXB8R ECO. Only thing I've done to it is swap the diff fluids.
I’ve had my Typhon TLR for about a year now, I have spent time and money to reduce the weight on this car. I’ve shedded 1.5lbs over stock, I use the Hobbywing Xerun pro G3 and the Hobbywing 1900kv motor which reduced the weight quite a bit on top of other weight loss items. All I can say the car is much more snappy and is plenty fast on a 17T pinion and doesn’t get too warm. Very happy so far! Thank you for the video, look forward to seeing you race it!
what were the major contributors of weight loss? 1.5lbs is quite a bit......
@@luigibellantoni6828You pretty much have to dump most of the basher proof parts. I was able to shed 1.5lbs on mine as well.
@@luigibellantoni6828 motor mount, electornics, driveshafts, and move to carbon shock towers and titanium pillow balls
Great topic for the interested beginners… loved seeing some of your laps around the track… it’s a good layout… I’d be very pleased to burn some tires there. 😎😎😎
To be honest, the Serpent RTR, as long as you don't crash, can hang with the Top Kits. That's how good it is.
i have the old 811 and it is literally a tank
I have a Kraton 6s and a Mojave. In my experience the Arrma chassis ist quite durable, even when mistreated, as I did with the Kraton. Even if stuff is broken it just might keep going.
Great review Roach I'm already a fan of your videos but came across the link Kevin posted on the tlr typhon fb group. Kevin steered me in the right direction when I first scooped this roller up. Im running the same 1515 combo. It's summer in NJ and we run on an outdoor diy woods track with a little elevation change. The 16tooth was running hot so I dropped to 13tooth and it's good now. Still has a pretty wicked top speed even geared down. Roach, your videos on the history of different companies are great too
I have TLR Typhon RTR. I changed lots of stuff. Wing, tires, elektronics and springs and I would say this buggy is amazing. Its a tank, i hit my buggy lots of time and dont break it.
i race a kraton 6s in the truggy class. the only changes i can remember making are all the fluid, shocks and diffs. its a bit harder to drive than a tekno tuggy but i do alright and best of all im having tons of fun with something i already owned. i just had to buy a transponder, tires and wheels for a total of $200 which any race level car would need anyways
A budget buggy series with cars from hobao , team corally , arrma& hpi
I've yet to race my tlr typhon but I regulary run it on open practice days. Every time there were multiple other buggies run with. All the tlr rtyphon really needs to hang with any other buggy is a complete fluid change and some good tires.
The track I run is very bumpy so my setup leans to the softer side but I currently run.
Front shocks :
6 hole tapered optional pistons, 35wt oil, Tekno Green
front springs
Rear shocks:
8 hole tapered stock piston, 35wt oil, Stock spring
Ride height:
25mm front / 27mm rear
Diff Fluid
F 7k / M 5k / R 3k
Rear camber -3.5
Front Camber -3
Increased front caster by moving 1mm shim from the back of the upper arm to the front.
Thank you for making a video on the typhon. I have slowly modded my TLR.
Mugen center shafts and AE cvd shafts on all four corners. Oils in the diffs and shock oil as well. Also went larger on some of the piston shock oils and Durango front lighter springs. Lighter sway bars.
Can I ask what AE car did the driveshafts come from. Was ot a RC8B3 or B4?
Can you tell me part numbers you used please
For the cvd I had to use the stock arrma outer . The pin is different size and binds the bearings.
Also bought front outers and used for the rears.
RC8 B3.2 for the cvd
Mugen seiki center shafts E2260/MUGE2262
115mm and 84.5mm
On the 84.5mm I recommend to grind some on the outer ball to get some clearance when the chassis flexes. Did it to mine and no issues.
The center shafts swap saved 13 grams of weight and the cvds 30grams total all four of weight savings

Just got the Kyosho RTR so i will be waiting for the video 💪🏻 awesome content
Great video Roach RC!!! Very informative. I have the TLR TYPHON and always wonder how it would do on the track. Thanks for sharing!!!🫡🫡🫡🫡
Hi Roach, just have to say mate that I love your RC content. I love the attention to detail and the way you articulate your thoughts/videos, it's a real pleasure to watch and listen. I'm 50 and am thinking of taking up racing for the first time here south of Sydney. I bought an Associated RC8 3.1e back in 19 that's yet to get its tyres dirty. ( I have a Kraton and 3 Corally cars for weekend fun) Watching you channel definitely gives me great info to take on board. Keep up the awesome work , cheers..
This buggy looks great. I bought the Caster Racing RTR a few months ago and love it. I’d like to see you get your hands on the rtr and the caster pro kit.
Would be cool to see what this thing could do in the hands of a top pro driver vs a very good driver with a purpose built race buggy
Ive always thought this car was a better racer than basher. I just has the right amount of adjustments for dialing the car into the track conditions arguably better than the competition. And that it’s tough on top of the adjustments makes it an all around good option.
The downside is that most tracks, area dependent, probably won’t carry the parts needed for the car vs the competition for things that may break in a race, so sticking up on extras is probably smart.
Great video. Thanks
Thanks 🎉🎉
Good info bud
Team associate …forever…..😎🦾‼️🤣
His name is Kevin that's awesome 🤣🤣
i haven't had a chance to run mine much at all...but overall it's pretty good for the price. i feel it's decent out of the box and just needs diff oil changes.....shocks feel fine IMO.
the stock tires are trash....just a set of good tires alone will make it hang with the top brands......
Horizon is turning Losi into a basher first brand also.
I would just buy a used roller, rather than a budget type
Typhon isnt quite as durable as my Tekno eb48.3, i would often leave the track with working teknos and broken arrmas. cheap to fix though
How do you feel about hobao on an entry level buggy/truggy roller
Can't really speak on them as I have no experience with them
Which car is the car shell?
The Arrma
@@RoachRC 車殼的是哪個品牌的殼
TLR version got more adjustment in the range or a race byggy then the normal typhoon that is close to some small adjustments and thats it.
to someone that is going to track their typhoon i say get a TLR tuned one from the get go.
BTW sound got some small MIC distortion.
Popalong rc did a review of it they thought it was junk for racing it broke on them they are a race channel.
