Typhon Typhon 6s speed/street build - completed

[Notorious J]

What's uuuuuuup! Been taking a break and doing more crawling. After selling off half a dozen rc's, felt it was time for another build. This one is all over the place featuring parts from Custom Rc upgrades, Ram Jam Racing, Castle Creations and a bunch of parts supplied by my friends at Jennys Rc. Finally got the last parts I needed so here it goes. The motor mount, spool, servo mount and center driveshafts are Ram Jam. So that's where I started. Motor is ordered, a 1721 2400kv Castle Powered by an MMX8S esc. Hope you enjoy the show. Where i was a week ago

Where I am today

Nice to see you're still in the hobby @Notorious J. I'm looking forward to seeing this build come to life.

It’s been awhile since we’ve seen a new build from you! Looking forward to it.

Thanks. Still have the Lim, never gonna get rid of the Noto, also have a Granite and Gorgon for messing about. Plus I have the most over built Typhon 6s that might actually see the light of day at some point It's got an M2C chassis, EXB bracing, @3d-rc.myshopify.com wing mounts, carbon fibre towers and Custom Rc Upgrades suspension mounts. Everything on it is new, built from spares and Jennys RC. The orange typhon was sold as a roller. As for crawling, got the Ascent Fusion and love it!

I toned it down, but never left. You know how it is. Let the addiction take control for too long, so just scaled it back. Made great money selling which allowed me to build only what I want. Noto J is here to stay

Aloha Nate! Glad to see your still around too

What's up Arrma mother f'rs! Stage 2 complete. Waiting on some CRCU mounts to arrive from the UK before I can start buttoning it up

 

[Notorious J]

Received more parts from CRCU so I was able to get the front completed. Also received a carbon fibre wing from them.

 

[Notorious J]

Started trying different custom cut battery trays. Gonna use some very old Arrma parts to make spacers that will rest against the center braces. One battery tray still has the wall on the inside, but the other has had both sides cut out, so the spacers are a necessity to keep the lipo away from the spool.

Final piece of the puzzle. Castle Creations 1721 2400kv w/ MMX8S. This motor was pretty much designed to run on 8s with an XLX2, but I made some adapters to bring the leads down to 6.5mm bullets, and stick to 6s. This will be for sale when it's done

This is coming together nicely! Excited to see finished product.
