I also got one. Waiting for some upgrade parts before first run. Did unscrew everything from the chassis and Arrma had used thread lock glue on very few screws. That is odd. I use stock servo in my 1/2 year old Notorious and it works good. But set the end points on the transmitter and disable the AVC when bashing hard. And check droop screws and pivot balls or you maybe have the issue with driveshafts popping out. I will use the Backflips LP 4S on my Talion, some more control in the air I hope. The fan... yes they should include a fan, even the 3S cars comes with motorfan. The body is nice and flat, good for bashing. The diffs where good on my Talion but the front diff had a diff gasket that was very curly. So had to replace that. Take it to that BMX track, perfect place for the Talion I think. 👍
Your gonna love the Talion brother, I have a M2Cified one and it's a beast. Flies very balanced and handles OUTSTANDING! I would throw a rear T-bone bumper to protect the bulkhead👍 Whenever I have opened up the new LSD's they have been perfect with the outer shims, I think the extra shims are for when the Bulkheads flex a bit over time🤔 Have fun brother.... Talion is a beast
Id like to get one down the road. So your the guy to let me know what parts to get. I use to have a hpi savage x 4.6 nitro like over 15 years ago i thought it was pretty tuff. Id like the new hpi savage x xl v2 ( the new orange one ) but this Talion looks so sic. Is it more durable ? Some people have made them super tuff iv heard and iv never owned a truggy before ! What do you think bud ? Also if I may ask. What is LSD's ?
They are a very durable car. I mean if you crash anything the wrong way things can break but overall they’re very good and the LSD stands for limited slip differential.
maan i'm staring at my box right now. it's still in there. i think it's time to let it see the light. we were on the same decision page. What made it easy for me is that i've never owned a Talion, so i do now!
I have the V3 version of the Talion and still love it. It's real hard on tires, I ripped one of those Katars to sherds the first time I ran it and have done the same to several more sets of tires since but it has serious speed. It will blow by 70 with the bigger pinion in it easy, mine does. I run it on a 6S battery and seems to give it even more pop. Of my 6 Trucks it still gets run tons. You'll have some fun and do some damage with it!
Yep, i think the same way too, how come arrma don't have both for all they're 6s or 8s line, rtr and roller on the EXB, so people can decide if they want the arrma electronic or not.🤔
that is a really awesome truggy.. Cant wait till I get mine in a week.. Was wondering.. looking at your Typhon ..like that buggy alot ..what kind of tires are you running on that buggy ?..awesome bashes you do ..really enjoy watching your bashing of your trucks🤘👍✌️
I have a set of the pro line MX tires on it really like them I’ve also been running the track tires on there that are made by pro line. But I’m really glad you like the videos buddy and I appreciate you watching
yeah i read the book that said shim it after 10 runs, so i drove it about 10 times 1st, saw this video and thought ahh crap, but when i checked the diffs both the front and rear already had a shim with zero play side to side, there was however a lose gear mesh for the pinion to diff ring gear in the rear diff so i put a shim behind the diff pinion to move it closer to the diff ring gear, defiantly worth checking before driving.
@@BarstoneRC they go pretty well from a lot of the reviews I’ve seen and handle damn sweet! :) I’ve not long converted to electric from nitro, you just can’t bet the reliability and power of the brushless electrics
Even after all the hymming and hanging if I was in the store looking at it and had the extra💰 I would probably walk out with it too!! Hahaha. The front of it is designed so well. It just looks rugged. Can't wait to see you send it!!💪💯
@@BarstoneRC I'm saving for OC8 Exb first..... But the Talion 6s exb is shortly there after. Second on my list is the Typhon 6s. I love the way that thing flies through the air!!!! I have all 3s right now. I love them. The only 3s arrma that I don't have is the Granite. But my twin brother has one so when we get to bash together I get to drive his.👍👍I'm in NE PA. Just above Scranton.
@@BarstoneRC Do you think it is more durable then the old school HPI savage x 4.6 Nitro ? Thats the truck I use to have but the HPI Vorza S truggy ( electric ) sits so low ! Plus it does not come with tower to tower or center brace. Im leaning towards getting a arrma talion exb. I like Corally there fast but not as tuff thats for sure. Durability is what I aim for number 1.
Talion looks sick 😃 🚀 I wanted to buy it, but I was waiting for exb version, after a few months of waiting I bought Tekno mt410. 1 or 2 months later Arrma released exb Talion and Outcast 😶 But I don't regret buying Tekno, it's great ⚡ ⚡
Mt410 is not buggy, it has buggy/sct short chassis but wide truggy arms, it is more like Arrma Outcast 🙂 My with 4s battery and all upgrades weights under 5kg 🦆
14 minutes and 9 seconds of the voice of reasoning. The talion is my favourite RC car because it is just so mean and lean but I don’t like the body shell either and I thought hat it was a roller chassis?
Their fans are crap anyways lol I've had to replace every single one off my 4 arrma rigs with turbo fans 😄 Its actually a good thing they left the fan out because you would add your own anyways.....they must KNOW how crap they are now haha
not even $5 for them to add a fan..thats a sick joke... i was pissed my v5 kraton didnt have a fan but it didnt have the heatsink either @horizonhobby please chime in ALSO witch is better thus or the EXB outcast?? cant decide what to get
Well I haven’t taken this out yet for a first run but it depends on what you’re wanting to do this car it should be great at handling and jumping the outcast is a great stunt truck but it does jump pretty nice also.
@@BarstoneRC do you have them side by side? im leaning towards the outcast cause i have a v5 kraton already nut im in canada so it costs 900$ for me at all the LHS.. what do you think? also is the EXB worth it ??
I mean the outcast and a Talion are two completely different platforms one is a long wheelbase with a wide stance and the other one is a short wheelbase. The short wheelbase cars are better for tricks doing backflips and stuff like that
@@BarstoneRC i got the Outcast EXB RTR as its less similar to the kraton and i wat to improve my jumping (plus the standing backflip haha) any upgrades that you rec? after a few bashes? mine is still in the box going to take it out this weekend.. cant wait
You are gonna love it . All the fun of the Kraton with the agility of the typhon
That’s what I’ve heard so I’m definitely excited to run this thing
I love the truggy trucks. Thanks for sharing one day ill have one of those
It looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun!
Heat sink an Fans Appreciate you touching on these features I agree with price point you should have bells and whistle‘s.
Yeah I just really think that for this price there should be a fan on there. Lol
this has to be the coolest looking rc car
It’s awesome!!!!
Awesome! I picked up the outcast exb and will be taking it out for its first rip this weekend.
Nice bud have fun out there!!
Nice rig buddy! Can’t wait to see the Hobby Store Jump for sure! 😜
Just getting a few more pieces of footage together hopefully and it will be next

That was mine to bud. Never had one so I had to!!
Sweet looking RC. There’s not a lot of love for the Spektrum electronics. I have no issues with them apart from crap servo.....

Yeah it looks like it’s going to be a really fun car when I get home from work tomorrow I’m planning on taking it out this weekend for its first run.
Got mine 3 weeks ago and it's an absolute blast to drive. Great video! I also was confused as to why they didn't include a fan on the motor haha
Yeah a cheap part but they couldn’t put it on I guess lol
Sweet looking ride
Thanks bud
Nice , that rig is a beast from what I've seen .
It looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun!
👊😎🤜💥🤛
I like rollers myself. I just bought the LMT roller 💪👍👍
nice RC my friend, maybe my next one !!!
This is one of my favorites!!
Looking forward to seeing your reaction to this car.
I was the same way. That’s why I didn’t get it. Awesome video! 💯 That is getto no fan. I never understood that?
Yeah!!! That'll be a blast of a ripah
Yep, i think the same way too, how come arrma don't have both for all they're 6s or 8s line, rtr and roller on the EXB, so people can decide if they want the arrma electronic or not.🤔
Very nice 👍
Thanks Earl. Looks like it should be some fun
i`m now converting my kraton exb to talion , the belted tyres made a huge difference , i`m sure you`ll love it
The addiction is real..😂😂
Dude it’s terrible I need help! Lol
Sweet man. You put flex type on your body's? You should do a vid on that. Yeah that car is awesome 6S rigs are the best bashers 👊
Yeah I’ve had a few people now ask about that I think I might do a video doing this body.
that is a really awesome truggy.. Cant wait till I get mine in a week.. Was wondering.. looking at your Typhon ..like that buggy alot ..what kind of tires are you running on that buggy ?..awesome bashes you do ..really enjoy watching your bashing of your trucks🤘👍✌️

Yeah sometimes they don’t have any on it and you end up destroying the diff on the first run or two.
Nice!!! Yeah with how much they priced that car for kinda silly they don’t include a fan on the heat sync… sweet car tho!
Yeah you would think they could’ve put a fan on it but obviously not lol but thanks for watching buddy
Man, I love the look of the new talion! Been thinking about buying one!
Another awesome vid mate> cheers
Yeah I’m excited to take it out for its first run and see how it flys!!
@@BarstoneRC they go pretty well from a lot of the reviews I’ve seen and handle damn sweet! :)

Good to hear. Yeah bud the Lipos now and the power is nuts.
@@BarstoneRC have you ever got into Nitro rc’s
I had a few many years ago.
FlexSeal tape is close to what Nascar uses. It covers a lot at 1 time. It's just really sticky. The fan thing pisses me off to. That's just wrong.😎
I’m loving the flex tape!!!
@@BarstoneRC would like to see a video of how / where you place the tape.
Even after all the hymming and hanging if I was in the store looking at it and had the extra💰 I would probably walk out with it too!! Hahaha. The front of it is designed so well. It just looks rugged. Can't wait to see you send it!!💪💯
Yeah I sat there and looked at it and looked at it and looked at it and then literally told myself who am I kidding I’m buying this thing lol
@@BarstoneRC I'm saving for OC8 Exb first..... But the Talion 6s exb is shortly there after. Second on my list is the Typhon 6s. I love the way that thing flies through the air!!!!

Yeah the OC8 is a Lotta fun and I’m curious to drive this talion but you’re not too far away from me I’m in Butler Pennsylvania
@@BarstoneRC About 4 hrs. Butler is near Pittsburg right?
Yep
Now they’ll release the roller versions😝😝😝. Curious how this one will run..great vid!
Yeah I’m waiting for it to happen lol.
great vids as always bro keep up the great work
Thanks buddy I appreciate it
@@BarstoneRC anytime bro
Thoughts on the new Typhon??? I am kind of intrested.
Looks cool but if your not staying on a track idk it’s not a basher for sure.
Its a sic car. It doesnt sit that low compared to like the HPI Vorza truggy.
This thing has become one of my favorite cars
@@BarstoneRC Do you think it is more durable then the old school HPI savage x 4.6 Nitro ? Thats the truck I use to have but the HPI Vorza S truggy ( electric ) sits so low !

I absolutely love my Talion it’s fast. It jumps nice and really durable.
Talion looks sick 😃 🚀 I wanted to buy it, but I was waiting for exb version, after a few months of waiting I bought Tekno mt410. 1 or 2 months later Arrma released exb Talion and Outcast 😶 But I don't regret buying Tekno, it's great ⚡ ⚡
I’ve been seeing a lot of those and they look like a great buggy.
Mt410 is not buggy, it has buggy/sct short chassis but wide truggy arms, it is more like Arrma Outcast 🙂 My with 4s battery and all upgrades weights under 5kg 🦆
Oh yeah I was thinking of the ET 410 I think or whatever it is
In your honesty opinion which one of these is better for speed runs. The Typhon or this one The Exb version.
As far as first run comparisons I would take my Typhon 6s over this thing
OK thanks I appreciate the feed back
Bro !?!!? G- Glotka!!!
I’m buying the bash bars for the chassis for my exb kraton
14 minutes and 9 seconds of the voice of reasoning. The talion is my favourite RC car because it is just so mean and lean but I don’t like the body shell either and I thought hat it was a roller chassis?
It’s should be a roller but noooooooo they made it rtr.
Their fans are crap anyways lol I've had to replace every single one off my 4 arrma rigs with turbo fans 😄 Its actually a good thing they left the fan out because you would add your own anyways.....they must KNOW how crap they are now haha
Hiya love the talion I gonna get it but not sure where or what size of fan to get can somebody help me out lol?
Fan for the motor?
You still digging it with the earplug in the diff? Thinking about plugging mine up. By the way, thanks for the vids man.
In the center differential absolutely I have done it to pretty much every car I have it works great and it doesn’t cause any further damage
@@BarstoneRC right on. Still handles good?
Really good
@@BarstoneRC awesome. Thanks man. 👊🏻
That body does look sexy as far a rc cars go I like the slick look it has 👊👍😉
not even $5 for them to add a fan..thats a sick joke... i was pissed my v5 kraton didnt have a fan but it didnt have the heatsink either
@horizonhobby please chime in
ALSO
witch is better thus or the EXB outcast?? cant decide what to get
Well I haven’t taken this out yet for a first run but it depends on what you’re wanting to do this car it should be great at handling and jumping the outcast is a great stunt truck but it does jump pretty nice also.
@@BarstoneRC do you have them side by side?
im leaning towards the outcast cause i have a v5 kraton already
nut im in canada so it costs 900$ for me at all the LHS.. what do you think? also is the EXB worth it ??
I mean the outcast and a Talion are two completely different platforms one is a long wheelbase with a wide stance and the other one is a short wheelbase. The short wheelbase cars are better for tricks doing backflips and stuff like that
@@BarstoneRC i got the Outcast EXB RTR as its less similar to the kraton and i wat to improve my jumping (plus the standing backflip haha) any upgrades that you rec? after a few bashes? mine is still in the box going to take it out this weekend.. cant wait
Thicker fluid in the center differential or earplugs. And turn the punch up
#putthefanonit
I thought the same thing 🤑
Hymming and hawwing! Lol stupid phone.
