About The Typhon 6S
Tuned Chassis & Body
The included aluminum TLR Tuned chassis features cutouts to decrease weight while allowing for good chassis flex. The factory-finished body showcases a bold racing color scheme, setting the TLR Tuned Typhon apart from other Typhon models and gives it a distinctive and competitive appearance.
Tuned Steering
The steering system of the TLR Tuned Typhon is a critical component for precise control and maneuverability, both on the racetrack and during intense off-road sessions. The vehicle features a responsive and precise steering mechanism, allowing for confident control at high speeds, whether on the track or in off-road bashing scenarios.
Tuned Suspension
The oil-filled, adjustable shocks with machined tapered pistons and EXB (Extreme Bash) stand-offs contribute to enhanced shock absorption and stability, ensuring a smoother ride and better handling across various terrains.

Note:
Included Spektrum ESC has 2 BEC options -- 6v or 7.4v. Factory setting is 7.4v. I was hoping for up an 8.4v option but will probably have to use an external BEC to accomplish that.
As well, the stock Spektrum servo and servo horn in this kit are 25T (teeth). So, if you purchase an upgraded Spektrum servo to replace the stock one (like I did), you will also need to purchase the 23T Arrma servo horn.
I had taken the Typhon TLR on a track twice and wished I had more batteries to keep it running. I do not have much experience on track but the other drivers say I would need to up the punch setting. Anyway, as a noob track driver I had crashed many times with nothing broken. If anything the rear wing is slightly bent but that's my fault. I crashed many times.
This is a great RTR buggy and highly recommend it for new and upcoming track drivers.
