Our description

The Arrma Typhon 3S 4×4 BLX is a 1:8 buggy that, according to the manufacturer and owner reports, is clearly built for bashing: metal-geared differentials, telescopic driveshafts (which can't be lost in crashes) and waterproof electronics. The BLX100 brushless system (3200 kV, 100 A ESC) is 3S-capable and reaches over 80 km/h. In buyer reviews (AMain Hobbies) the durability is praised – many report hard crashes without damage; on 2S it stays easy to handle. A drive battery is not included.
