- How to,
Decided to clean out and replace the oil and bearings on the front and rear differential on the Typhon 3S and change the oil on the shocks but I have since replaced the shocks on the Typhon. Sorry this video was a little out of order from my last one. - บันเทิง
Really appreciate all of the maintenance content, very helpful stuff.
No problem! I’m glad you enjoy it and appreciate you watching bud
Great tutorial. It'll definitely help me with my typhon 3s as I was a little afraid of taking it apart and breaking something.
Glad it was helpful if you ever have any questions feel free to ask.
Also thanks for the vid...I ran about 15 packs through my 3s typon and looking to same Maintenance on mine ....is figure that 1 mil would hook nice and last awhile...again thx it’s my first time opening one up and kinda daunting....great vids!!
Yeah I’m experimenting with the differential fluids on mine I just recently changed it to a lot lighter fluid I’m just trying to find out what’s causing it to pull really hard to that one side.
Thank you for the awesome video. Really helpful and saving me a trip and money going to a hobby shop and paying for maintenance services. Also boost my confidence to do it on my own.
That’s awesome man, that’s what I love to hear learning how to work on the stuff yourself not only saves money but it’s honestly a lot of fun doing it yourself
I pretty much know what I do on my rcs but watch your videos, having the same vehicles, just incase I miss something. Thanks for your maintenance vedios.
Nice. Was looking for something just like this thank you
Glad I could help
Great video, thanks for sharing your tune up with us
Thanks for watching man. Appreciate it!!
Hardcore..went with the million! Can't wait for that!
Lots of good tips. Great video!
Thanks bud appreciate it
This in fact will be my first time messing with this when it’s time. So thanks for this vid! A-B-C-D. Thanks !
Glad it was helpful, if you ever have any questions feel free to ask man.
Thanks for the tips going to get mine on Friday
Yeah it helps keep those differentials together for sure. Thanks for watching buddy
Very helpful. I’m new to Arma, I had an hpi 1/8 monster truck before. I’m getting a 3s typhon in march 2022.
Glad the video was helpful bud and thanks for watching
Great bench and maintenance video brother. The 3/4s platform are easiest trucks to work on with modular form. the shocks are very well thought of design much easier to work on. Looking forward to seeing it rip out there again.stay safe and bash on brother
Yeah the 3s and 4s are great to work on very easy. I like the stock shocks but the leaking is so bad unfortunately
@@BarstoneRC I do hate the leaking shocks for sure. I hope Arrma made changes and address this issue on the newer version.
Well found out too why it didn't want to take off straight. I had put the proline mx on it and they were great on handling and going where you pointed it. After 3-4 months I was taking it inside and noticed the tread was going low making it slide eazy and with hitting the throttle was like limited slip, one way or the other. Sooo I put the original back on and the tread is better on those even running them before getting the proline and after. The proline were even sticking to the shelf I laid the typhon on when I went to run again so I thought they were great tires until they lost traction even in a turn on grass.
Thank you for the good informative videos
Thanks bud appreciate it
I know this is a 3yr old video, but I'd use silicone grease for plastic ring and pinion gears. White lithium gease is petroleum and will degrade/soften that plastic. Sil Glyde is a heavy-duty silicone grease that would be perfect for this. As for mesh, I'd put in a lot of time with various thickness shims to get it just right, instead of just trusting factory standard.
Yeah, I never had any issues but I have since switched to red in tacky grease
Glad you got dat bearing dahn ere’.
Da bears.
Can't beat abit of servicing on ur RC cars bro 👍 nice info. 👍Peace out man. 👍 😊
Thanks GAZ. I try to show I actually fix my car is occasionally and not just beat the shit out of them LOL
thanks for sharing, good explications
In my limited experience with Fast Eddy bearings I really like them. Especially for the money. They are very reasonably priced.
Yeah so far I’ve had great luck with them and like you said for the price you can’t beat it.
great video!
Thanks bud
Great video. Thank you
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching bud
Thanks for the video!
Glad you liked it I hope it was helpful. Thanks for watching
I wish there was a video out showing how to take the front end apart to get to the diffs. I am new at tearing them apart
I will be putting a video together for this car or the 3S line. I just got done putting one together for the 6S line.
@BarstoneRC thanks I need to check my front a weird noise is coming from there. When I have the drive shaft connected. It makes a weird noise. When I take it off it stops and sounds normal
I had all the people that sub me yesterday I want to make sure you're still there cuz TH-cam felt that they wasn't either active accounts or that they wasn't subscriptions gained normally seems how it's from a challenge or whatever so I want to make sure if yours ain't there if I could get that one back thanks man
I’m still subscribed
That's the same problem I'm trying to fix. At first both rear wheels hooked up and would wheelie sometimes. Not sure why there are 2 different slipper clutch complete, 1 for the 3s blx s and one for the blx s and megas. The one in the diagram is the one for all 3s and megas and it ran straight from full throttle. Bought th one for 3s only and it pulls to the left at full throttle even with tightening the slipper. So I just replaced the pads on the one that came in it because it was slightly bent where the plate that hooks to the rear of the shaft and wobbled. Hard landing bent the slipper peg.
Yeah I haven’t had a lot of success with getting it to go perfectly straight again I have replaced pads changed fluids tried just about everything and it’s better but still not perfect.
HEY, BIG THANKYOU ON THIS VID. Thats an odd lookin diff! I had no idea. Guess its time i tear into mine. Gotta replace the sh1t servo tho 1st. I dont run it as much as some of my others, but other than the servo its been a good runnin buggy.
Awesome man I’m glad the video was helpful or will be. But yeah the stock servos are not very good but the car itself does pretty well.
@@BarstoneRC That diff oil is waaayy to thick.. I went with 10 000, and even that was a little thick. .:) Your car really wanted some tLC, by the looks of it. But I guess thats what a car looks like, when its used good! Good video!
Yeah you are right, that was way to thick but I wanted to try it lol
I put a set of door tracks tires and rims Omaha armastin and the rims bent and I've been having or I've heard a lot of people saying they're having problems with the rims well it's true I went up the road slid around come back down and my wheels were wobbling like crazy is crazy be careful
I'll throw Chevy or hocks on there, hahahha great video man!
Thanks bud
I’m here for the shevier hocks.
Wow million
That’s what I might use in a center diff
Yeah I didn’t like it really so I went with 100k now.
You need to get the HotRacing shock bodies ,well worth the money.
Yeah I got a set of them big boar shocks on it now so far they are pretty nice. But I need to change the ones on the granite also
@@BarstoneRC and now proline racing has a new 3s range of shocks💥💯💯
Nice info - be interesting to see how the 1m diff oil works - seems a bit high for front and rear on a 3s car
Yeah I figured but I never tried it but so far I’m really liking it. It hooks up and moves really good in the dirt
hey bro, sorry for my question, but what will be the perfect combination for this model ( typhon) i mean what number of silicon diff ( 1 mill- 7000- 5000 )put in the front and what in the rear ? thanks and great video it work a lot.
40k front 20k rear
Holy Shit, 1 million !!!, I'm relatively new to the RC field, but even I know that this is just way too much for a 3s Buggy. In tournaments and competitions, professionals use 3000 in the rear, 5000 in the front and 7000 in the center differential. And I think you should take them as a reference.
Well I like to experiment and see for myself what I like and what I don’t like I did end up changing this out because it was affecting the handling I have now gone to 50k.
Awesome
Thanks
The bearing with the shim does it need to be tight to the diff case as i put mine back together and something is rubbing.
Yes it should seat the whole way down.
Why do some people say the shock should rebound out half way after a fill? To me that sounds like what you described, air, because mine do that only if I don’t get the air out.
I compress mine almost all the way before tightening down the cab there should be a tiny bit of rebound
@@BarstoneRC oh, I thought in the video you said “you don’t want it bouncing back out”
Put Extra shims on that beast!
How many?
Can you use some black RTV silicone along with the diff gasket to help seal it for no leaky diffs?
You could try it you would have to make sure it’s very clean and there’s absolutely no grease on either side.
Nothing wrong with 1m on a basher.. I prefer my diffs super tight as well..👍
So far I’m really liking it.
If you had to do it over would you still put the 1m oil or a bit less? Just trying to get perspective.
Thanks
I will put it in there again I’m really liking the way that it handles
For the rear differential upgrade on metal gears, is it normal that my rear has a feel of a bit of resistance. And the front feels less and smooth. I applied traxxas silicone grease on the teeth of the differentials.
I’ve noticed with stock gears, or the metal that the rear always has a tiny bit more resistance. Not sure why?
Where can I learn more about my typhon 3s how to take apart etc, thanks for the video!

I got lots of maintenance videos on my channel
Thank you I've actually been watching right now watching you pain a new 3s body xD for the chassis situation I've saw multiple people will wd40 or mo94 an it absorbs it wipe of the excess like 24 hours later. Apparently makes the plastic more flexible. Not sure if you've tried it I know I'm going to try ^_^ but I subscribed look forward to staying tuned
Thanks buddy I appreciate it
@@BarstoneRC welcome no problem glad I came across your channel
Were you running 1 million weight oil in the diffs before ? If so how good did it work?
I liked the way it ran but recently it started pulling really hard to one side so I just changed it out I haven’t got the test to see if it’s doing it still or not.
Also have had the screw inside the outer part of the shaft that the wheel and tire bolt to come unscrewed and watch a wheel take off. Took me a min to figure out what the heck just happened. 🤣
Lol i’ve had the same thing happen and you’re like??? What the heck
I got some lithium grease is used for bicycles would that work inside the differential also?
Yeah that would work fine.
Huh. U don't want the piston to push back out when compressed? Putting all the shock work on the spring? What's the purpose of the fluid then?
Well you do want the piston to have a little bit of pressure pushing it back out but the fluid is to slow down the dampening of how quickly the shock compresses.
good rip! northmoreland park??
Yep the BMX track down there it’s a lot of fun
I have a arrma big rock. What weight differential oil would be good in it? Thank you for your video.
100k
@@BarstoneRC that is for front and back?
100 in the rear and 60k in the front
@@BarstoneRC okay. I going to buy some soon. Seeing what kind will be good. Thank you.
I did 1m in front and rear but didn’t really like it so I did the 100k and 60k and really like it.
Had any problems with drive shafts popping? I can't keep them on my granite...
No the Typhon and the granite are two cars a never have problems with drive shafts. The Kraton 4s I had problems with till I put the CVD slider driveshafts on it.
@@BarstoneRC I was going to use the cvds on the granite, but ive been told that I need to upgrade my diffs to metal ones since I'd be using metal drive shafts cause it'll strip the diff. So idk what to do lol.
I would try the driveshafts and if it killed the diff then do that but I think it might hold up for wile.
@@BarstoneRC can you answer me with a link on where to buy metal Diffs?
Hot Racing AON1101 Aluminum Differential Carrier Case - 1/8 1/7 Arrma BLX www.amazon.com/dp/B01N7OBWXC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabt1_hDtRFbK0SQSJF
I bought a new one and it broke in 15 mins. My front shock broke the in tier frame, ouch.
Some days are just like that.
I have grinding noise and won’t go when I hit throttle. I pulled motor thinking pinion gear loose but all was tight and didn’t see any gear damage. Do you think it could be the diffs? Or is it inside motor
As long as your spur gear isn’t stripped I would say it’s the rear differential. Do the front wheels go?
@@BarstoneRC both wheels spin but they won’t pull if you put it on ground. It goes but not even close to normal power and makes a nasty grind sound. Like a screw gun noise when screw is tight. I really thought it was loose pinion gear. That happened on my bandit Vxl. The shaft in motor had a bit of play. Could it be gear in motor? Or do you think it’s diffs?
I posted a video on my channel
Is your slipper too loose? Or something broken in there? That’s what it sounding like
How can I test differentials. Hold wheel while I give it throttle? Thanks in advance
My typhon 3s lasted 15 min of light running and now it grinds and won't hardly go. But gears are fine. Help!!!
Really sounds like the rear diff gear or input gear.
Is your motor locked up
I bought a used one off Amazon that was like that, took it apart and it was the motor locked up. It wouldn’t reverse and was loud and grind-y, finally stopped all together, sent it back and bought a new one.
Have you done an updated video on the 1M diff oil?
I did talk about it in one of my vids but I took it out it didn’t handle very good so I went with 50k front and 100k rear. Much better
@@BarstoneRC I've been looking for the factory team stuff but it seems hard to find. Any reason why they use silicone grease as opposed to like a lithium, like lucas or liquid wrench?
It doesn’t eat the plastic away over time
I take it you haven’t done the test video yet? I didint see if in the listing??
Yeah I’ve had it out a few times now. It’s been good
How did the million weight hold up bud🤨💥
I’ve been extremely happy with it and I would definitely recommend it.
Should have re use the old diff both gears were in really good shape my input gears look a lot worst
I reused the main different gear I just replaced the input gear mainly because the bearing was being a major pain in the ass to get off the last one.
@@BarstoneRC i heard putting the gear on the freezer the bearing will come out essy
Yeah I’ve heard about that also but I’m not waiting an hr for my gear to freeze lol. It was the original input gear so I figured just change it out at that point.
@@BarstoneRC I use a dremel so the bearings go on without destroying them with a socket and hammer. Works great!
You don’t have to tap them very hard but I like the bearing to fit snug so that it doesn’t spin on the shaft and destroy it. It’s weird though I’ve had some of them fit very easily and some of them are a little snug.
Does this work on the arrma senton 4x4 3s as well?
Yeah all the 3 and 4s line
@@BarstoneRC thank you I appreciate..can you send the parts numbers you use for differential..or recommend on parts to better performance thank you sir...
Did you ever run it with that diff fluid in there?
Yeah I did.
@@BarstoneRC Was looking for the video on it, did you end up doing one?
I ran it for one day and I didn’t really like the way it handled so I went back to 50k
What shocks u have n the front
They were a set of them hobby pack from eBay but I have now put the ZD racing on it. They work great on it.
hi bro, there is no problem if a use the same diff oil from stock i mean still using 10k front and rear. I’m new in this hahaha sorry have a great day
No that’s fine but you could go a little heavier in the front like 20k front and 10k rear
@@BarstoneRC thanks bro 😎😎
@@BarstoneRC 😎😎😎😎
@@BarstoneRC bro how you lube your typhon? I mean after run what do you use or what do you do ? 👍🏻✌🏻
If it’s really dirty I blast it off with a hose dry it real good with a leaf blower or air compressor and then spray anything that could rust with WD-40
Clean your RC man. This will make it last a lot longer.
I do clean them but sometimes I will run them once or twice dirty because I do run them quite often.
I noticed that my input gear can slide towards the diffential slightly because one of the bearings on it is very loose, is this a problem?
Well when everything is tight it won’t let it move but I have shimed the input gear on a few of my cars the get it as close to the Spur gear as possible
Ok, my problem is when it slides towards the diff the input gear hits the diff case and I don’t really know how to shim it
I even thought about gluing the bearing on but I‘m not keen on that
Well they will move that way, when u remove them they slide out that way. Are u noticing a problem or just wanted to know if it’s normal? The input gear will move on the bearings but the bearings are locked in with the baulkhard.
Thanks, my problem is just that that the front diff hasn’t got any movement and is a lot nicer and on the rear diff the input gear can almost slide off the first bearing
First👍
Where did you get the wheel hubs?
I’m sorry which Hub’s?
Damn. You skipped over the parts I needed to see in taking it apart 🤦🏻♂️
Crap I’m sorry bud I was trying to not make it to long.
I have some more videos of tearing down the 3s line in my how to playlists.
1M is extreme even a center diff doesnt use that
Yeah that’s what I figured but so far I’m really liking it!!!
@@BarstoneRC can we get a run vid with that 1 mill oil?
I just posted a video up I had it down at the skate park but it didn’t last real long because I broke the front bulkhead LOL but it was also pulling really strange to one side so I just recently changed the diff to 50.000 i’m trying some different things to see what I like better in it.
@@BarstoneRC arrma uses 10k everywhere for handling imo its really hard to get the right tunning you want. I want to try an open rear exb diff but i cant becaus ei dont know the spacer part number the new exb open diff uses
Yeah I have been messing around with different weight oil’s lately in the differentials to see what I like the best.
It’s not a center diff and it’s not grease.
Yeah sometimes I get saying things in videos that aren’t correct it’s obviously a rear differential and they use oil.
I lost the shim
They do sell them on Amazon and eBay if you need more.
@@BarstoneRC thanks
