Hello all! I just need to share a rather serious problem I had with my Typhon. I was running my almost new buggy the other day, when suddenly it stopped dead. I had steering control, but no forward or reverse. Inside, I popped the body, and to my great surprise, my battery cables had slipped into the small opening on the main diff gear housing, and were shredded to bare wire, and shorted out my buggy!
Off to my RC store. Luckily, my electronics survived, but my $60 baterry was puffed and fried!! The exposed wires were repaired using liquid electrical tape. So, I'm up and running again, minus $60. I don't no if all Arrma trucks have this potential problem, but Typhon 6s owners should check for this situation. I don't understand why the diff housing doesn't extend further, which would eliminate this problem. Race and learn I guess!
