REVIEW: ARRMA 1/8th Scale TYPHON 3S BLX 4x4 Brushless Buggy

When we got started on this review, we thought we received the 1/10th scale 3s brushless Arrma Typhon buggy, but we were bamboozled, in the best way! It's actually a 1/8th scale buggy. We will show you the differences, side by side, of the 6s versus 3s Arrma Typhon. This is a 1/8th scale 50 MPH BUDGET buggy. There's only a 10 MPH difference between this and the tougher Big-Brother 6s Typhon. Also includes Quick Tips for: - the center shaft - the 3s body set up - simple conversion from buggy to truck option We have this buggy in stock, come in and shop!

Making your move into 1/8 scale brushless buggy bashing has never been easier — or more exciting! ARRMA powers the TYPHON 4X4 3S BLX with its BLX100 brushless system, featuring a 3200Kv brushless motor and 100A ESC. This 3S LiPo-capable setup has proven its speed and toughness in the GRANITE 4x4 BLX monster truck and SENTON 4x4 BLX short course truck. As in those machines, the transmission and chassis have been beefed up to allow this buggy to take full advantage of the electronics’ power. The low center of gravity, with wide arms and narrow buggy wheels and tires, improves handling over all of your favorite bashing terrain — race tracks, trails, muddy courses, skate parks, and more. The body is the same size as that of the TYPHON 6S BLX model and captures the same sleek look, with body mounting points tweaked to match the mounting points available on the chassis.
