Super Speed Saturday - 4s Powered Arrma Mega Typhon 4x4!

[@RCRoads]

Great job. Cant wait to see it on on anther run. I like how well the stock tires preformed. 🏆🏆💯💯 I struggle with my SkyRC GPS sometimes but its good to know they're accurate. 78mph for sure. 👍👍

[@redvikinghobbies]

Can't beat that price. Hope they have some left. And 78 over the stock? Lord have mercy that's awesome on those tires and ride height! Nice run JayTee!

[@ml-sm8gk]

Big Ups 👏 to my guy JT! Keep up the good work and videos

[@JayTeeRC]

tks

[@conwaywebb8686]

I would most definitely change out the plastic diffs cuz I have the armor sent in mega and put the VXL 3S system in it and the diffs didn't last no time blew the rear out like in seconds

[@Jjcustomsllc]

Great video JT!

[@PJsElectricRCAdventures]

Impressive speed on 4s

[@offthewallhobbyman6978]

runs very nicely. Simple and worthy upgrade........I hate losing reception.

[@redvikinghobbies]

Right? Worst feeling during a speed run

[@americanbulliesacgskamp.ab8564]

I got one 2 weeks ago appreciate this video helped out alot Salute

[@philthyco1]

The coolest thing about the mega 4x4 and 3s/4S line is you can easily just change power modules from chassis to chassis

[@philthyco1]

What ended up being broken???

[@JayTeeRC]

I don't know yet. I don't think anything's really broke I need to look at it I just haven't had time to today yet

[@mariomozie2102]

You hit 78 out of the gate💥🏎️💨🕹️🤏😱 Wow J👏👍

[@ScottMcLinden]

Time for a RC collection video 😎

[@mitchellminer4596]

From your last video mentioning the scratch and dent I bought one of typhoons and did an unbox and then did the same thing lol PUT A BRUSHLESS SYSTEM IN🤣 pb with it 68mph...fun car...and thanks always wanted one !👍👍👍

[@Hoosierdaddyjones812]

I plan on putting a brushless in mine also just not sure what yet, I have a hobby wing combo I could run 4s with but thinking of buying a castle system. I have the tlr typhon also looking to run 6s in it.

[@JayTeeRC]

nice

[@speedtekrc3772]

Love it 😍

[@Armandot6]

What gears did you upgrade, inputs, pinion, clutch etc?

[@antoinebaylor4166]

What do we have to do to covert our RedCat machete 6s to 8s

[@jeffdavis6715]

My vorteks with the almost the same gear 20t 55t on 3s goes 56mph before the 85amp esc goes in to thermal shut down

[@dronesdogs3798]

Like 👍 button smashed Great video JayTee

[@FarmerFpv]

That's a hands-free car, lol.

[@acourtneylawson2065]

I've hD the video typhon and a few and a couple kratons and 3s senton...there's something about the typhon 3s that I think would be faster than the 6s..I think its the weight...my question is the... mega v3 conversion to blx...what could I do to bulletproof it...other than the diffs as I'm going to get the new metal diffs...

[@johnsxterra9020]

The arrma typhon 3s does 47‐48 out of the box. Some forums say you can not reach 80mph on 3 or 4s but it might be possible.

[@kolten808]

80+mph on 4s is very possible, just have to put on 6s infraction wheels and change clutch to locked with different spur. The wing puts too much downforce and any bump up front will flip especially pushing 70+. The typhon mega is an awesome platform for all kinds of builds 🍻😄

[@acourtneylawson2065]

Ok..other than the motor and esc whats different between brushed version and box version...I thought the gearing pitch or something dealingvwith gears were different..and maybe center support bearing...?

[@johnsxterra9020]

The gear on the mega is a 48 pitch the gear on the brushless is a .8 mod (32p) and the Center support bearing

[@vincente.929]

Subbed.

[@jonathanwashington4244]

Can I ask questions I wanna know if I can run 2s 5200 mah 50, double in the 3s typhoon will it give me a problem or a benefit

[@vincente.929]

Jtee, Hoping you get 4s dialed in on this buggy...!!!😅

[@ljsmixbox44]

My car also have done the same thing..moving by itself. Thats how it got run over because of batteries in my remote should have been changed. When these cars are not calibrated...like you said it have a mind of it own.

[@stormycannon8904]

Just changed mega arrma typhon to brushless waiting on a program card to adjust its speed and start up.

[@vinnyviolet]

I hit 48.6mph on my converted mega on 3s the other day...... ran out of runway tbh. The system I used is 4s capable... guess I'll have to give it a try lol.

[@JayTeeRC]

😆

[@frankthetank9741]

Wellll… I’m gonna have to do this to mine. I put the 3s system out of my granite and I’m only getting 36 mph with the 15t pinion. I figured it would be faster than that. I would hit about 48 on the granite. Any ideas on why it’s slower?? I have a 20t i can throw in it too

[@stormycannon8904]

Hey bro you may need to get a program card to increase speed and start up also brake efficiency.

[@JayTeeRC]

Did you change only the system out or did you also change your spur gear? .

[@frankthetank9741]

@@JayTeeRC changed everything over. It has a 57t spur and 15t pinion

[@Fpsnut]

Slower because of smaller tires.

[@frankthetank9741]

@@Fpsnut i ended resetting my esc to factory setting and that did the trick. With the 18t pinion i was able to hit 55 mph 👍🏽

[@matthewmckinney4428]

Did u leave the stock mega gearing ?

[@JayTeeRC]

Only in the gearboxes. The spur gear is a 57 tooth

[@matthewmckinney4428]

@@JayTeeRC so the spur and pinion are different from the 4s blx ?

[@Yo0ne]

Really good speed for a little buggy green

[@maryannjohnson5665]

I have a mega with mamba 8s set up my pb is 111mph just put my castle creations 1520motor in it

[@passiverailman2318]

How much

[@biggnasty989]

I don't think you ever did a follow up video. And you didn't run it again like you said you would with the bigger pinion on 3s. Also, your GPS was obviously off for the 3s runs. I need to know if using this setup on 3s will keep me at speed with a larger than 20t pinion.

[@Armandot6]

What gears did you upgrade, inputs, pinion, clutch etc?
