Tomley , 100k 20k , half each equals 60k perfect , 100 k too thick , that truck proper upgrades . I messed up not buying this truck leftover hidden at lhs , big C came and all inventory went 😂
I literally built this car a couple of years back ❤ The sway bar mounts (PCRC) are Philip Calvert ones, tidy wee upgrade on the plastic ones. Definitely left me with original Senton shocks too. Has had a couple of owners since but delighted to see it in such good hands👍
By far my absolute favorite rc! I ended up buying another just for parts and ended up repairing it and now I have 2 running senton 6s blx’s and wish I could find another. You don’t realize how much of a tank these are until you drive one ( and beat the brakes off it and it keeps coming back for more)
I thought this truck was just a Typhon 6s with a Senton shell. Never knew why anyone would want a Typhon that parachutes but this video put some light on a vehicle I wrote off. Well done.
I mean, you could say the same about any 4WD SCT, that they're just "1/8th scale buggies that parachute", because that's kinda what they are in a nutshell. :P
@@VestedUTuber Yea but in the sentons case, at least the 3s, it’s basically identical to the Typhon, same chassis and basically all parts are the same except for a few bolt on differences like body mounts and I think maybe the a arms.
@@travispratt6327 I'd have to double check but I believe the arms are the same as well. Two more examples are the original Losi TEN-SCTE and the TEN/810 platform (which in turn is a lightened, "small block" version of the 8IGHT 2.0), and the HoBao Hyper 10SC and Hyper VS2. I believe the Hyper 10SC might be using some parts from the Hyper TT10 but the TEN-SCTE is 100% 810 apart from the body mounts, bumpers and wheel hubs, with the roller also having a milled version of the chassis exclusive to itself but based on the one from the 8ight 2.0.
To get the perfect pinion and spur mesh everytime take a bit of paper and run the paper through the gears and tighten this has always worked well for me.
Could not agree more. Loved the 3S, sent it with parts to a friend who isn't in to RC (yet!) Got myself the 4S Mojave, and like that even more, guess it's the center diff. Made a real Arrma fan out of me.
I turned the 3s into a 4s monster. It gets up to around 50 on a straight. I love it! The senton will always have a place in my ❤. If i gear up it goes up on 3 wheels like the real trophy trucks. Makes it a blast in the parking lot or on a track. I smash people all day. Anyway cheers glad you gave the senton a love letter!
I love my Senton 6S V2 - been bashing it since the day it was released. It took some beating, but I only replaced the ESC and servo so far. Everything else is still original
Much of that toughness is still alive today in the 3S as well. Been smashing mine for two years, all original electronics, drive shafts, rear linkages, and even wheel bearings. But man I'd love to find a 6S model.
I just scored one for cheap. Second hand but it presents as new. It even has that new plastic smell still plus the seller sold me a brand new body for it! Unicorn indeed
Im 60%ish🤷♂️ to chase one of these down sometime soon. That'll finish my Arrma collection. Then I'm all about Tamiya kits (Yeah). And a crawler collection into the realistic stuff. (Missus reckons that means I'm getting old). Pfft. What does she know. I'll be a child FOREVERRRR.!! 😁
I found your video about a month after you posted it and went on a hunt to find my own. Already had a Slash but I felt the joy it brought to you. Tracked one down after a few weeks and the guy actually had 3 of them. Picked up a slightly modified one with way bigger tires than it should have, it'd rip into a wheelie at almost any speed. Got some stock dboots on it and oh my god is it a blast! Edit: Rewatching for some ideas for how to upgrade mine and someone stamped those sideskirt stickers upside down, the pipes exit in the front with the carbon/soot trailing back, but on the replacement body they're in the rear with the soot going forwards.
I did virtually the same thing with my EXB Mojave and Scorcheds roto loc mount etc, well chuffed with the results. Especially with Sweeps Road crushers
I built a 8s senton off the typhon/outcast chassi and man it shreds through everything I never had a rc that size that just goes through deep water and mud like nothing while also having just the right amounts of speed and power and nimbleness
hello friend nice video well made congratulations. I wanted to ask you that Mini Cam did you use to take the filming made on the RC CAR? Thanks in advance, hello from Rome Italy
This video is making me weep for my Senton I sold... However I am vicariously enjoying it again through you! The Pump track is definitely my fav spot you showcase!
Out of all the videos I've watched of yours, this one is the closest to reminding me exactly what it was like working on and driving my Associated RC10 TC3 all those years back lol
That is a great truck. The Scorch motor mount is a great piece of engineering. I loved the slow motion shots jumping off road. The on road tires looked like the hooked up really well. Great video.
Found a good old senton 6sblx stock for sale second hand last summer which completed my arrma 6s lineup. $100 in good condition couldn't br happier with it(wing could use replacement ofcourse but that aside it's a great rig).
I am really impressed by the extra parts available for this model. The one that impacted me the moat is th motor mount. Excellent piece of hardware. And man! It has more titanium than my leg 😅
The Sun which shines in the RC Universe went a bit dim the day they discontinued the Senton 6s!! What a beeeeeessssstttttt! I’m lucky to have one original V3 and then converted 2 Typhon 6s into SCT’s using Sen 6s bumpers, posts, mounts, side nerfs etc!
Just a heads up. You should get some purple loctite 222. It's specifically designed for small fasteners and things like counter sunk screws. It's a lower holding strength/viscosity than blue and removes with hand tools.
One fell in my lap today and because of you, I had to have it. Had to buy it as a roller but I have the stuff to build it. And I really like the 4s Mojave
If you wanna save a bit of cash with those screws not biting i always found the strongest fix is too put a few 3-4 strands of copper wire from a old cable in the hole then put the screw in, same happend too my vorteks diff case and saved me buying a new one when nothing else was wrong with it
So funny you made this. I've been scanning for this Senton for a week or two. Max beef, do-it-all SCT. Will habe to wait a little longer for one to pop up👍
I have the same senton v3 with similar upgrades. If u can find a old pro-line basher body its a perfect fit. Its a thick white body that's indestructible. Ive run mine with it from new an have the og body new ona shelf. Great score man.
A few months ago, Amazon had the Senton 3s 4x4 for $329.99 CAD. It was there for a few weeks, and I really regret not buying one. The Big Rock 3s is still on there for $349 right now though. Its very tempting, but really want a Senton.
Looking at getting a senton boost, and the fact it is on the same chassis and can be upgraded to this level with my skill level improving has sold me on it
Wish that Scorched stuff was available in the US without buying direct from the UK. Shipping is expensive! I want those inner fenders for my 2 and 4wd Slashes!
I watch marketplace constantly for lightly used RC cars for a good price, then buy them and upgrade them like you do. I prefer buying them from 40' somethings that purchased an RC vehicle, ran it mabe 5 times, then decided to sell it. I enjoy working on them anyway.
Great video, i have the mojave 6s and the senton 4x4 3s blx, what's the difference in the senton 6s,just curious, lol and wondering if I should look for one
I remember before i knew there was a senton 6s this guy was selling one for 90 bucks with the blue body and the stock blx system now looking at it i should’ve went for it
Love your work my friend.. Always fair and impartial. Keep it up. I'd really appreciate a review of the new Rlaarlo Omni Terminator. It would be even better if you could get it done before Talbot. 😂 Keep bashing! 👍
This is the best car Arrma ever made. Built like a TANK, almost indestructible. I've never driven a Mojave, which is said to be fantastic, but the Senton is the perfect size IMO. I hope they bring it back one day, but I doubt it.
Hey Phil. Great review as always. Ive just ordered a Rlaarlo Omni Terminator Carbon myself, first rc car in over 20 years! Do you have a test scheduled for that at all? Should be interesting, my last cars all those years ago were a a Grasshopper 2 Super G, Madcap and Bigwig!
I keep looking at the senton as Ive heard good things about it and you showcased that 6S really well mate. Looked and sounded like loads of fun. The Mjave 4S looks awesome but will it perform as well? Another one I'm looking at..
Great video sir. I just missed out on the Senton range when they discontinued both the 3s and 6s models and I regret never having bought either. I did get a Mojave 6s EXB and that thing is a beast but maybe a 4s Mojave might be the sweet spot for size and speed.
Hi phil, there is a alternativ….Mojave they call it 😂😉 and if you want to save the motor …put a support on the rear under it, it helps the can by slamming on the ground. Thanks for that vid and have a good time!🎉 cheers buddy
Hey so I ended buying a used kraton 6s BLX I think it's a v3 but not 100% sure and I saw a cheap v5 chassis on eBay are the parts from v3 interchangeable with v5 I cannot find videos about this?
I got the Mojave 4s as my 1st RC car. It's gone thru 12 packs and been sent at least 30ft thru the air. It's a tank and imo more fun to drive than my Talion 6s.
Right before you said you were doing it 1 handed, I said to myself, "I can't even drive to handed without filming".. lol. You just made me take the 6s out again. I've been staring at it for a couple months now. It's time. That top 3 of one of best bashers of all time. Most likely the best short corse basher of all time. That 3s does come close though

Sick !!
Hello from TX Thank you for sharing the editing skills as well as the knowledge
Can you ride your ebike and control an RC car at the same time? I'm thinking about trying it this summer.
I literally built this car a couple of years back ❤ The sway bar mounts (PCRC) are Philip Calvert ones, tidy wee upgrade on the plastic ones. Definitely left me with original Senton shocks too. Has had a couple of owners since but delighted to see it in such good hands👍
Mythical legend!! That joy you felt was palpable! Love those reminders of why this hobby is awesome 🥰
Yes, so much fun! Wish I took more batteries!
By far my absolute favorite rc! I ended up buying another just for parts and ended up repairing it and now I have 2 running senton 6s blx’s and wish I could find another. You don’t realize how much of a tank these are until you drive one ( and beat the brakes off it and it keeps coming back for more)
This thing was made back when arrma/team Durango was absolutely mad and bold
I thought this truck was just a Typhon 6s with a Senton shell. Never knew why anyone would want a Typhon that parachutes but this video put some light on a vehicle I wrote off. Well done.
I think most rcs have potential. You just have to put some time, and sometimes some holes into it to get it to perform! 😂

It's basically a typhon with a hole drilled through the shock tower to mount the body mounts, with wider sideguards and a middle tower.
The Senton 3S is my favorite SCT you can buy today for general bashing. But the Senton 6S is my favorite SCT.......EVER!
So glad to see a Senton 6s video! I thought i was the only one showing it some love lately 😅 Great video bud.
It’s awesome… and I now also have a new boxed one 😇
To get the perfect pinion and spur mesh everytime take a bit of paper and run the paper through the gears and tighten this has always worked well for me.
What weight of paper?
Great video. I thread lock EVERYTHING metal to metal. Because Murphy's law, the screws you don't will come loose.
Even with locktite and lock washers stuff stills comes loose on my all metal Mojave 6s.
@@surfside75 Of course. Nothing is absolute

The speed testing was incredible! That truck handled the speed with ease! That’s one of the best riding truck I’ve seen! Good job bro
I like the Baja Rey because it has realistic suspension. The Senton and the Jumpshot Flux are pretty sweet though. Nice shots and nice rip!
Im 60%ish🤷♂️ to chase one of these down sometime soon. That'll finish my Arrma collection. Then I'm all about Tamiya kits (Yeah). And a crawler collection into the realistic stuff. (Missus reckons that means I'm getting old). Pfft. What does she know. I'll be a child FOREVERRRR.!! 😁

I shouldnt admit it but i wasnt sure those even existed! I havent ever actually seen one. Very very nice find with tasteful oppgrades!
Don't feel bad you're not the only one. I've always thought the 6s senton was the Mojave 😂
Shove a slither of cable tie in the striped hole and it's as good as new.
I think armma should do a rally car based of a senton.
I did virtually the same thing with my EXB Mojave and Scorcheds roto loc mount etc, well chuffed with the results. Especially with Sweeps Road crushers
Yes, the EXB Mojave is a beast. Sold mine a while back

Wish that Scorched stuff was available in the US without buying direct from the UK. Shipping is expensive! I want those inner fenders for my 2 and 4wd Slashes!
we have very similar taste. love you stuff dude
Awesome Phil! Don't forget to rotate those tires.
Not sure if I should get the senton cause I have the Mojave already and I absolutely love the Mojave don’t think I need another smaller version of it
Great video senton was m first ride, love that motor mount.👍🏻💯👌🤩
Great!
Thank you 🙏
12:48 Yup, great shot
For some sparks to get, should you have rear suspension way lower, even to almost scraping level??
Looked fun! She handles flight very well! Nice work. Thanks for sharing.

I have a sento 6s and i love it. I think the closest thing to it would be the new 4s mojave ?
Would love to see you do the Mohave 4S video, that would be sick!
Was lucky enough to buy the last one of these at my hobby shop years ago. Still have it, one of my favorite rc cars I own.
Nice! I managed to get a new boxed one shortly after recording this video
I bought one brand new, left it in the box for 3 weeks, and sold it, Absolutely regretted it ever since. They're based off the Durango 1/8 sct
I still have a couple of Durango DESC410 rolling chasssis.
Can I ask why you brought kit and never opened it ? What a shame 😮
I ‘may’ have got a New in box one just after finishing this video 😎🤘
Funny that i’ve got an unboxed HPI Savage 21, been under the stairs since 2002 or 03 i think.
@@SharonD369 wow 😮
I really love what you did to your Senton great job brother
This was a satisfying video seeing the senton restored to its glory
Great video, i have the mojave 6s and the senton 4x4 3s blx, what's the difference in the senton 6s,just curious, lol and wondering if I should look for one
Phil, you’re the best RC ever made. I don’t know what that means but it makes the algorithm happy.
haha
Hi tomley, where is the dirt track you are driving the car please?
Pretty sick truck, Phil! Fantastic mods and bashing!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Cheers dude. It’s such a beast
I got mine second hand. It’s mainly a shelf queen, but I try to get it out a few times a year. The sentons are awesome and so tough.
Fun to have a little rip now and again
It looked like 65 plus mph from the video...is that 7 th scale truck? GREAT VIDEO!
You should try a Tekno SCT410.3. It takes a hell of a beating despite its racing pedigree, and most of it is stock. 60mph on 3s with a 4300kv motor.
I remember before i knew there was a senton 6s this guy was selling one for 90 bucks with the blue body and the stock blx system now looking at it i should’ve went for it
Soo jealous! I ended up with a Mojave, not the same but close. Have you ever considered buying some land and building a track?
i have a senton 6s. i love it. i just need to get a new motor for it. this vid has reminded me. cheers Phil
Either this or the Mojave 4S will be my next RC purchase. They just look too cool when cornering.
Nice rebuild and bash session. Great footage
Love your work my friend..
Always fair and impartial. Keep it up.
I'd really appreciate a review of the new Rlaarlo Omni Terminator.
It would be even better if you could get it done before Talbot. 😂
Keep bashing! 👍
Another great video Phil. I do love an upgrade build from Tomley RC You do a stirring job Sir
Thanks dude
This is the best car Arrma ever made. Built like a TANK, almost indestructible. I've never driven a Mojave, which is said to be fantastic, but the Senton is the perfect size IMO. I hope they bring it back one day, but I doubt it.
Nice truck! I've been meaning to get a Kraton 6s for quite a while now. I have an Infraction, it's pretty good.
Really nice Arma. Great content as always. Can I ask you, what drivers do you use with your power tools. Thank you
What an absolute beast of a truck.
Cheers for the video dude
Now we need a shoot out with a Mojave 6s!! Great video man, makes me wanna get one of these!
Hey Phil. Great review as always.
Ive just ordered a Rlaarlo Omni Terminator Carbon myself, first rc car in over 20 years! Do you have a test scheduled for that at all?
Should be interesting, my last cars all those years ago were a a Grasshopper 2 Super G, Madcap and Bigwig!
Love these trucks,I have 2,1 brand new,still in the box.I originally bought 4,then sold 2 of them.
I keep looking at the senton as Ive heard good things about it and you showcased that 6S really well mate. Looked and sounded like loads of fun. The Mjave 4S looks awesome but will it perform as well? Another one I'm looking at..
Great video sir. I just missed out on the Senton range when they discontinued both the 3s and 6s models and I regret never having bought either. I did get a Mojave 6s EXB and that thing is a beast but maybe a 4s Mojave might be the sweet spot for size and speed.
I had one Arrma Senton 6s. Everyone turned them into speed machines 😊
Yes you do! I got my 4s Mojave about a month ago... So badass ,
(Up the spring rates tho 😉)
Hi phil, there is a alternativ….Mojave they call it 😂😉 and if you want to save the motor …put a support on the rear under it, it helps the can by slamming on the ground. Thanks for that vid and have a good time!🎉 cheers buddy
Had a Mojave EXB.. it’s was awesome. I’ve got a soft spot for a 6s 1/10 though
I’d love to see a Senton 6s vs Mojave 4s twin test. Good luck finding one in the UK though. I’ve had mine on order since October! 🙄
@tomleyrc What rc trophy truck is best for its price? And or best budget one
Where is the junp track, does anyone know??
Is the Senton 6s size of the truck about the same size as the traxxas maxx slash.... Love the channel.
I’m a huge shortcourse truck fan I have never owned one of these, but I definitely would have. great video💯✌️
Def get a Mojave 4s. I'd like your opinions and thoughts about it!
Hey so I ended buying a used kraton 6s BLX I think it's a v3 but not 100% sure and I saw a cheap v5 chassis on eBay are the parts from v3 interchangeable with v5 I cannot find videos about this?
I bought a 3S senton because of your original senton videos. I now have a Typhon 3s as well and I think the Typhon 3s is better. Is 6s necessary?
I got the Mojave 4s as my 1st RC car. It's gone thru 12 packs and been sent at least 30ft thru the air. It's a tank and imo more fun to drive than my Talion 6s.
How do you compare it to the Mojave 6s? I love mine, easily my favourite RC I own
Now this makes me wonder what a Tamiya tt02 would be like on 6s as a street basher, obviously with upgraded internals
Sweet build I I didn’t even realize they had a 6s seton
Right before you said you were doing it 1 handed, I said to myself, "I can't even drive to handed without filming".. lol. You just made me take the 6s out again. I've been staring at it for a couple months now. It's time. That top 3 of one of best bashers of all time. Most likely the best short corse basher of all time. That 3s does come close though
Haha.. I’ve been practicing 1 handed for a good few years now 👌
I have a m2c'd out notorious. My favorite 6s truck.
