Overview
ARRMA builds the Typhon as a four-wheel-drive speed buggy that arrives ready to run with Spektrum Firma electronics, a brushless motor and a heatsink already fitted. A front brace is included.
Spektrum Firma parts, a front brace and a sealed receiver box make it a bash-ready buggy once it is powered. The limits are the missing battery and the top speed figure, which assumes an optional gear.
Who it's for
Hobbyists aged fourteen and up who already own LiPo packs and a charger get a ready-to-run speed buggy. Newcomers without charging gear, or buyers wanting a first beginner car, should look at lower-powered models.
Pros and cons
- Brushless motor with installed heatsink
- Waterproof receiver box
- Ready to run once powered
- Battery not included
- Top speed needs optional gear
- Charger not mentioned
- Heavy for casual play
Performance notes
Four-wheel drive and a large brushless motor deliver power to all wheels, while the heatsink handles motor heat. The top speed figure assumes the larger LiPo pack and an optional pinion gear, so stock speed will vary with the battery chosen. A sealed receiver box protects the electronics from water.
