Been out of rc cars for almost ten years. The kids wanted something to play with in the park so i picked up a gen1 typhon last week super cheap. It came with a 21t pinion installed and an older 4s 5200 25c lipo. I had full intentions of replacing the electronics and putting a smaller pinion in when I bought it.
Figured I'd tear it up a little before getting a new esc and motor.
Well. Almost 10 packs later and temps aren't even getting close to 170. So.... wtf. Now I can't justify upgrading anything. Lol.
I did try putting a higher c rated 6s battery on it and temps got too high real quick.
