Testing Out 300k Diff Fluid In The V5 Arrma Typhon 6s
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
#Arrma #rccars #rc
In this video I swap out the stock center diff fluid for some 300k and take the typhon on a test run. The Typhon is a whole new RC with 300k fluid.
Because I know you are going to ask, I used Mineral Spirits to clean the gears, and I just used a paper towel to wipe the fluid out of the diff case.

Personal injury over RC damage...that's a true hero right there.
Just changed mine using stock weight. Mine too had very little fluid in the diff. Thanks for the video! The other 6S Arrmas call for 100k fluid. I'll definitely test this too!
Very noticeable, that would diffinitely be worth the fluid change! Thanks for sharing! 👍
Man! Every time I watch your videos I see a genuine contagious smile!!! Thanks for the great videos! Please keep them coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent demo of 10K vs. 300K oil in center diff. Easy to see the different performance.
That's a very happy man with the results of 300k. I had the same problem with the kraton so I changed my diff fluid to 500k and I had that exact smile😁

Im doing the 500k as well. wish me luck!
The Notorious is wonderful with thick fluid. My v4 is currently 30k front, silicone earplugs center and 30k rear. After watching your vid and my bash session today, I'm going back to 1million cst in the rear. It was such fun at the dog park/baseball fields with that setup
If you do blow the front/rear diffs, there are 2 easy fixes: stronger cross pins (people use 2.25mm or #43 drill bits or drill rod) and larger shims to better support the sun gears (which can fracture from time to time). As you know, nothing is perfect out of the box, but I've found these 2 improvements to beef up the durability of the diffs.
That thing looks like an absolute ripper!! Awesome video by the way! 👍😉

Bought a 6s typhon roller a from a friend along with 2 2050kv, metal gear servo and a DST3 transmitter and a clear shell. Painted Black and yellow so can see better at a distance. Still adding decals as ik see fit. Not wanting any red on it.
I changed myV4 Typhon centre diff to 300k oil today but haven't run it yet to test. There was only a tiny amount of thin oil in there so I expect a huge difference. I actually would have preferred to go around 200k but I have no 200k oil so it was between 300k and 500k and 300k was the safest bet. I have 500k in my Kraton 6s and that made a world of difference.

Lol, nice tip!!.... I wish I had seen this vid like 2 weeks ago cuz I literally just redid the fluid on my center diff with the stock 10k fluid. And I have also noticed that it does burn the front tires a lot faster than the rears with the factory setup. I am however thinking about getting rid of the center diff & replacing it with the Limitless spool. I'm getting a titanium spool for my Limitless so I may drop the stock one into the Typhon 6S. The Typhon 6S is so far my favorite buggy to bash with, thing has serious ballz lol. I have been bashing it for almost 1.5yr now.

I discovered your channel a couple months ago. I love your enthusiasm for trying out new vehicles. Now on the differential fluid, did you change the front and rear also? The center looks like it improved the performance. I’m looking for a differential fluid that can kind of accommodate speed runs, bashing (nothing hardcore) and drifting. I have the Hoons DBoots for the on road stuff and took a worn out set and taped them for drifting. My Typhon will probably be used on road but still want that flexibility to be able to do a speed run off road (grass or dirt). Thanks for sharing your thoughts and ideas on the Typhon.

@@outsourcedrc if I was just doing speed runs, I would set it up like my Arrma Limitless (1million in the front and rear-34 tooth spool and 27 tooth pinion ). That thing is a rocket for that application. I wanted my Typhon to be “Jack of all trades and master of none”. My reason for using it on the road is because it sits higher than the Limitless because Michigan roads are terrible and I still like going off road (swapping to the OEM off road tires).
I need to do this. But I just put new tires on mine
My stock typhon does double backflips.... thats with the 2pt speed pinion. Top speed was 72mph with the 20t. Tried a 25t yesterday and only maxed out at 74. Super disappointed to be honest. Still stock 50t center diff. Might try the infraction v2 center 46t diff and try again. Now after watching, I want to take apart the center typhon diff and check the fluid!
