Overview

Loaded with high-end components, the TLR Tuned Typhon 6S RTR brings race-bred tuning and strength to an RTR platform. Its heavy-duty drivetrain uses all‑metal diff outdrives and gearbox internals with durable steel driveshafts throughout. Low-drag wheels wear race compound dBoots EXABYTE tyres for confident grip, while the tunable rear wing helps keep the buggy planted at speed.

The Spektrum Firma 4074 2050Kv brushless motor and 150A Smart ESC deliver punch on 4S for the track and blistering performance on 6S for big jumps and stunts. An aluminium sliding motor mount provides fast, hassle-free access for maintenance. Ergonomic control comes via the SLT3 2.4GHz radio paired with the SR315 receiver, and precise steering is handled by the high-torque S652 metal-gear servo.

Can it run on two 3S batteries instead of 1 6S
Jeffery / 6th October 2025

Yes you can but they need to be low profile.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Could you run this car with a 3s battery instead
Ethan Brown / 6th May 2025

It will operate on 4s-6s lipo , 3s would not supply enough amps or power and may cause issues.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Hello are the Arrma rc cars better quality than the hobao vs2 . Thanks Andrew
Andrew Tunnicliffe / 2nd January 2024

They are verys similar quality but the electrics in Arrma cars are better.

Steve @ Wheelspin Models
Hi I had a typhoon 6 v5 but was wondering can you fit 2 3s Lipo in the battery space
Mark / 14th August 2023

You will fit 2x 3s 11.1 lipo batteries in this car but you would need some lower mah ones to keep the sizs down to fit the car.

Something like these  VZ0341EC5

 

Si @ Wheelspin Models
Would this car be a good contender for 4WD 1:8th off-road buggy racing if not what would be. Thanks
Frank / 15th May 2023

This would be a good car, but you could look at things like  these # AS80946  TLR04012   K.34116B
