TLR Tuned Typhon 8s!!! speed runs with Castle Monster x 8s/1721 1260kv motor

It's so fun to drive. The tires are dead tho lol

@@RCKYOTA great car bro, you considered getting a centre spur gear, instead of the diff? youll be surprised how well she performs on every level.

[@RCKYOTA]

@JM-500 JM-500 I have a Pinocchio spool for it but I normally just run it at the race track where the center diff is beneficial

Wow that thing is fast with that 1721 1,260KV motor 88mph, i'm thinking about putting that same 1721 motor with either an MMX 8s or an XLX2 in my future Limitless V2 when i get it and just bashing it.

[@RCKYOTA]

It's a solid basher motor. Def not a speed demon but runs great on 8s .

[@cjchannel12RC]

@@RCKYOTA It looks like it runs great, I might put that 1721 with an XLX2 in my future Limitless V2 it will also have a center diff.

[@RCKYOTA]

Thank you !

[@MV-df8jl]

Damn that thing is a beast...how’s your diffs holding up with that power

[@RCKYOTA]

So far no issues, the arrma are kinda cool actually because they share the diffs in there 7th scale lineups . So it has the same diffs as the as infraction, limitless . Pretty beef

[@FarmerFpv]

Sounds like the whine of an LS Vortech supercharger, lol.

[@MarcoRossi-c6k]

Hi, I just arrived and I would like to do the same configuration as you. Do you have any advice to give me or changes to make on this model so as not to damage differentials or anything else? I don't know the car well so you are much more expert than me!! Thank you

[@RCKYOTA]

Hey the diffs have held up great for me on the stock parts. No issues. The typhon uses the same parts as the 7th scale infraction platform so it is nice and strong. Your good to go with just upgrading the motor and esc . I'd do a servo also . I'm running an nsdrs 400 now

Finished mine a couple of weeks ago and I love it, what pinion do you recommend, 22tooth seems to be a little bit aggressive for an off-road basher 😂 also, have you messed with the new 2200 castle motor, just wanted to ask how people are liking it if they’ve run it ❤

[@RCKYOTA]

Nice , I have the new v2 1515 installed in this car now and it is awesome . I normally run it on 4s with a 20T at the track and it's way faster than most of the cars. I slapped a 6s in it for bashing and it's jsut insane. Too much power. I changed the harness to a single plug so no more 8s for me
