Brand New ARRMA Typhon 223S Is Here!
The Arrma Typhon 3s RC car was already one of my favorites because of its versatility. But what about this new one. Will it be the same? Will it be as much fun with all the new upgrades? Time will tell, but for now, lets just see if it will fly!

Team Corally Spark XB 6 VS Arrma Typhon TLR
I have 4 crawlers and enough spare parts to build a 5th (which I am going to), but I have always wanted a basher. I looked at Traxxas years ago, and their prices deterred me from looking any further. Fast forward to a few days ago when I get my Ascent 18. I was so impressed by the quality and price, I looked at what else Redcat has. Long story short: I have one of these coming in the mail. 😁
Nice edit skills pretty sick ...
I appreciate it but that was mostly capcut edits.
91mph on 3900kv 20t pinion on 4s
did you have to adjust the droop screw in the rear to prevent binding? i think the dogbones are a little long...
@@babupranav no. It almost felt like the dogbones could fall out if I didn't. Like they weren't long enough
crazy mine binds... I'll have to measure and compare maybe it was built wrong the suspension setting seems stock as well...
When I switched the 3200kv for the 3900kv on 20t 4s 85mh
I did the Micro B with the Hobbywing mini28 and the sensored 1626 6500kv.The thing is uncontrollable at 100%.From a dead stop it will do a backflip.With this setup everything fits in the stock location and the body fits like factory with zero mods.I plan on doing a video and speed run just to know the actual speed.If I had to guess it's at least 40mph, but we will know this week when I get the chance and weather permitting
บริษัท redcat มีบริการเงินปลายทางหรือไม่ ผมสนใจที่จะซื้อมันเพราะมันคุ้มค่า😊😊😊😊
I'm not sure if they offer that.
I had the same issue with front joint and diff but they took good care of me. All set now!
Same here for me. I did an update video on it
Sick flip!!!🔥💥
Nice spot very nice no ramp needed
Yes, very happy I found it
I totally agree 👍🏾 with your color choice and that 2in1 esc receiver was a huge mistake . But I'm still buying ine next month .
I’ll have mine Wednesday. Are the shocks oil filled?
Yes they are.
I need to find a slightly taller and wider tire. Nice Car
Literally just got an email from a local store that this finally hit retail in Australia and this video comes up… it’s a sign!!
Means you gotta get it!
It is ,I’m getting one . The old ones are almost gone for good
Same price with a aluminum case center diff asmr and steel front and rear diff and pinions with the better driveshafts , a better esc bit it’s a combo but it’s already good so if it breaks switch it out right ? It should be good for at least 6 months . Sometimes something goes electronically for no reason , sometimes nothing does but very rare .
Yeah this RC can go from a speed runner to a basher with a tire and pinion change right ?
I put a 6s esc in my old one just so the esc wouldn’t cut out
Nice driving.
This vs the Kraton 4s v2.5 ?
I dont have the 4s Kraton to compare the 2
Wow!🏁🏁🏁
Im also waiting for an esc through redcat warranty after having very similar issues as yours. Also no estimate. Im guessing a lot of people have them on warranty. Personally im looking to upgrade to a 6s esc
Sorry you are in the same boat as me.
My Valkyrie came with a bad fan, and it was going into thermal super fast, less than 10 mins. The fan never came on....until one day it started working, and yes I did check the connector. They sent me new fans. Works fine now, and I have extra fans. Im going to eventually throw a 8bl150/4274 quicrun combo in it eventually just so its more reliable
For sure you should contact RedCat. I bought my first redcat 6 weeks ago, and I am really enjoying it. I did have a servo problem, and I sent an email, just stating the problem and they sent out a new servo, no hassles. I had heard they had great customer service, and now I can say for sure, they back the product. Hope your esc is just a lemon and they sort you out.
@MrGonzoify I did an update video. They are sending a new one out. Just not sure when as they have none in stock.
I saw another video where they had the same problem.(can't recall name) He noticed it right before the steel band wrapped around the ball that holds the pin in completely came off. He fixed it by wrapping it in half inch shrink tubing and it looked like it would prevent it in the future. Hope Corally is listening, I love my corally, and i think this is a legit problem they should address.
Rc Guy Garage is the one you are talking about.
@@therchotspot that sounds right, thx. Felt bad i couldn't give him credit.
I ve seen a few 1st run vids end up this way! What a bummer dude.
syncro-4 has updated front drive shafts also as the retaining steel band to stop pins from flying out are now fine spring steel wrapped around 3 times. I still put heat shink over them.
@@aussiedigger1441 good to know
Looking at my syncro now it has the fine spring steel on it. I got it right when they were released so I'm not sure if they changed it and then changed it back at some point
I wonder how it compares to the Skeeter?!
Regarding the Shock issue. I just received my new one and it does not bring the replacement pack inside. Anyone know if they are they still including it?
@@CarlexDIY I would hope the new ones just have the updated shocks on them at this point.
They will want tou to send the esc at your expense and then they will tell ya its your fault and you need to buy a new one. Ive walked down this rabbit hole before with redcat. Try living in Canada and dealing with them.
Did they asked after or before you got a new one? They didn't say that before so that won't be happening over here
@therchotspot I never got a new one at all they wouldn't send me anything cause I told em I shouldn't have to send them anything especially when it doesn't work. I dealt with them back and forth for a good month before I said enough is enough and bought other electronics and just never went back to them.
@WoodsUnknown you should see my update video then. We are pass that point
Nice front flip ...
Are you near ace hobbies in col hats. I live off harrowgate I told them for months that they need to check into team corrally and the final did and doing good withholding them I want the kagama 6s where do you bash I have a cple splots
I go down to them about once a month. Good guys over there. I had spoke to them about it as well and got my spark from them. I showed them my 6s Kagama a couple of weeks ago. I'm about 30 mins north of them.
I’ve ordered a MT. Also bought 2 4S batteries and 2 3S batteries. Nice to see the MT runs really well and is still fun on 3S! Thanks for the video!
No problem! Thanks for watching.
I ran 3 7200mah 4s 80c packs through mine back to back and had no issues whatsoever,albeit that it was running hot the last pack but nothing crazy hot and never tripped thermal shutdown. The truck is an absolute beast
Nice! That gives me some hope. Mine couldnt get through a 50c 4s pack. But the truck is tough!
I just geared down to a 15t and no issues with my Valkyrie MT .
Think its over geared out of the box and running it full throttle the whole time in grass is going to put it in thermal on max battery power, having it on 3s and it not doing it show that.
Agreed. But, that how it is advertised and shipped out. And the fact that they are willing to replace it shows they think it's not over geared. And most newbies whom this is marketed to, won't understand they need to change it or use a 3s battery.
@therchotspot it's a new truck still going to be working things out with this truck. I think the esc its a little small for the truck, but 4s isn't a newbie truck, the 2s trucks are beginner trucks, but hell yeah that's nice readcat going to get u a new esc though.
@phillyupz newbies dont know a 4s truck isn't for them. They see the price and say hey, more power for less. But yes I think it is great that they will replace it. And I hope they work it out soon so this issue gets resolved for everyone
@@therchotspot hel yeah, hopefully redcat keeps improving, gotta give a update with the new esc though👍
Redcat is killing it. They fix the esc and it would be on the top 5.
Yep!
Beast
I thought it was common for people overheating these. A heavy truck, geared out of the box to go ~60 on stock electronics is pushing it. You could probably drop 4 teeth and still have a ~50mph 4s truck.
@JT-6s some people have issues, some don't. I asked a few and they didn't have issues at all.
at least they contacted you, Arrma is the worst customer service I have ever dealt with, out of stock is the company moto, but it shows in stock
It been awhile since I dealt with them but thats disappointing to hear
@@therchotspot I tell you, Redcat are the nicest folks to deal with
Nice I’m glad they are doing there part as far as sending you a new esc
I been using max10 escs for years.. i cant remember having a problem with a single one.. 4s but maybe bump the pinion down a tooth or 2.. i mean if your pulling backflips on 3.. i would start to think maybe its slightly overgeared for 4s
I don’t disagree. But I didn’t gear it up, it’s stock gearing. And the way they are ready to replace it is saying to me that this is unexpected. Maybe just a bad batch like I mentioned. But it was fun on 3s for me. I might just keep it there
@therchotspot ya i mean if 3s does it.. then 3s will do.. but hear me out.. lets say hypothetically redcat overgeared them from the factory leading to widespread esc failure.. and now the stock for replacements is used.. but i mean if 3s is cool. Then your all good..
Again, you are probably right with the over gearing. But I also asked a few others people on here if they had this issue on 4s and they said no. So it's hard to say. Like I said, more questions then answers
Could be the grass or rough terrain causing it to get warmer 🤔
Good point if it's a hobby wing issue it's even a bigger problem. Just keep using 3s put a bigger pinion.
Im thinking that will be the best route
Nice double flip pretty sick ...
Would you also try the 17 tooth pinion? I hope so much that this will be a reliable car, like the 6s. Cheers
I pretty happy with the 15. The motor was a little hot after the run. It might be real hot with a 17. But maybe🤷🏾♂️
Can you explain more about adjusting the droop. I drive in a very similar location/terain. What did you do to adjust it can you give an explanation. Im just not super familiar with how to adjust the droop. A video would be great. Mine is still in the box for Christmas I just want to be prepared. Thanks great video
Ill add it to my next Kagama video
Awesome!! Thanks
Done a speedrun yet?
Not yet. Next run!
Sick bash sir , question; the little ring you took to replace the pin , did you put it back ?
Yes. But what I showed in the video is actually the one from my Radix. The Kagama 4 is a different design. The Radix one is more of the spiral one I'm used to. The Kagama 4 has one that's like a solid band. So I just had to close it back up.
Very cool spot!
Thank you!
What’s the height (drop) of the big jump? Always hard to tell on video but looks like quite a few feet down.
I'm not sure but I would say somewhere between 15 to 20 ft.
Wow, definitely a good test of reliability!
A very good truck
I have the Exceed Rc that’s the same as the tornado just named different there good cars just gonna want to learn too fix stuff been upgrading my sunfire 4wd pro buggy and been having fun with it it’s probably my most upgraded Rc i have.

Yes you can!. Thank you!
