Yes, plenty of power for flips now. I have the HRB 2200mah Graphene 2S pack I mainly use and also the HRB 2200mah Lipo 3S pack. Yoowoo and some other brands make the same spec battery, may well come from the same factory. I tested them against a CNHL battery and noticed no difference between them.
I haven't found the HRB in 3S and Graphene, but I have heard that these work really well and are made by the same company www.amazon.com/Graphene-Parkzone-Airplane-Quadcopter-Helicopter/dp/B08QDFGKRW
Just picked up a typhon grom for myself, it looks like so much fun. I plan on upgrading the motor and esc, it looks like a challenge but worth it when i see vids like this. tough lil bugger, those were some good tumbles. cheers
Arrma is out currently, but a lot of local shops have them or if you hunt by part number you can usually find some online in stock still. ARA311193 This place has them as of this post www.gallimods.com/shop/c/p/118-HD-Differential-30T-08Mod-3000cSt-Oil-2pcs--GROM-x79192113.htm
Hi RCKIller! This is a FANTASTIC video… well done and thank you so much! A couple of questions: 1) Where did you get the little legs for the direct servo mounting? 2) Where did your package of motor mounts for different pinions come from? 3) Where did you get the motor screws from?
Thanks! 1) The ESC mounting 'feet' are from the Hot Racing kit hot-racing.com/?partnumber=GRM2401;c=1909 2a) It is the Arrma mount set www.arrma-rc.com/en/product/motor-mount-set-8pcs/ARA320744.html 2b) Pinions are various tooth counts from LC Racing, I bought several from www.hobby-addicts.com/products/lc-racing-l6032-motor-pinion-gear-set-17t-18t-19t-for-3-175mm-shaft?_pos=1&_sid=d8fc1550b&_ss=r 3) Motor screws I have a large spares box I keep. I think the new motor needs M3 screws, if you don't have any handy you can get a starter kit of spare screws from Amazon (or Jenny's for the larger scale RC's)
Thank you VERY much for what you’re doing for our RC community and for such a fast reply! Very helpful! Another question… do you know what motor temps you were getting on 2s?
@@ringo101079 yeah I don't get the gatekeeping some do, it makes no sense. I haven't used my temp gun so I don't have an exact to number give you but it doesn't get warm/hot unless I'm pushing it on 3s. Even then it's still within the limits. Off road may run a little warmer, I will be doing some more videos soon hopefully
I go over it in more details in my other videos but XERun 2848 4600kv + 10BL60 ESC . Perfect bashing 2S and speedrun 3S setup, and will outrun a lot of other 3S setups on just 2S.
Oh dude....might want to get that battery all the way up and receiver behind it. Almost positive the balance is too far back causing the torque steer. Verry nice build , attention to detail . nice'
My mini Revo and Vorteks both have insane motors in them and have to ramp them up slowly at 50% to keep the left front wheel from torque lifting the tire up.....that causes the tire to balloon completely throws the suspension off then darts to the right. Add some weight in the left front and that should help . Belted tires and softer rear springs with 70 wt helps too. Good luck.
Thanks for the tip! That is kind of the same conclusion I was coming to. I'd like to stick with stock tires for now but going to play with diff and suspension to see what can be improved
Motor and ESC I ordered direct from Hobbywing www.hobbywingdirect.com/products/xerun-2848-motor?variant=41360976445555 www.hobbywingdirect.com/products/quicrun-10-sensored Radio and receiver are Radiolink RC6GS V3 and RF6G, from Amazon.
Very nice. I have a few Tekin mini rage esc, they go 4s! I wonder if this thing could hold up with my 6800kv on 4s! HAHA I have not been impressed with minis for a long while, this thing looks good.
I have seen a few fit (or working on fitting) the Castle Micro X2 into these. That can also do 4S! I can't even get full throttle on 3S with this setup though so maybe with a tamer motor. With a few upgrades these are really great.
@@Killer_of_RCs Man, I am so out of the loop in rc, I thought the Tekin mini rage was the top dawg. I have 3 of thes esc, apparently they are rare, I had a few castle setups in mini t pros back in 2004. Castle makes great stuff.
Yeah this setup is really meant for 2S, 3S is just for speedruns because it is too much. I would get a nice 2838 or 2845 size motor, 3500-4000kv. Should get you 40-45mph on the stock pinion on 3S. Still recommend the 10BL60 over the 16BL30. Definitely don't try the no-name ESC combos from Amazon. They are all junk.
This is the new XERun 4600kv sensored motor. With the adjusted timing it behaves more like a ~5600kv motor up top. A normal unsensored 4600kv motor with the same pinion would probably be around ~43mph on 2S
Awesome bro ! 👏👍. Happy Easter . 🐣🐰 . I m working with a hbx 16890SA with 3s batteries and she smokes with that 3700 2840 . I don’t understand the throttle thing when I start it . If the red light is on the car by the throttle thing the center knob has to be adjusted until it goes out . I thought that was my throttle control to adjust the power . It’s around middle but the car won’t work all the way up and goes forward .
Another plastic mobile that needs 300$ Worth of upgrades to be suitable for a seasoned basher. How about getting the part's that have been on backorder for months for the Grom. Horizon Hobby stinks.
Out of the box the only thing it needs to make it reliable would be the diffs. Hardly $300. I don't know any RC that you can literally triple the power and not expect to break things. Once you want to go that fast, of course you need more upgrades to keep it reliable, and that is going to cost money. Show me on the doll where HH hurt you
@@Killer_of_RCs yeah right a crappy brushed system suitable for a 12 year old kid. You may be on that level. I am not. My Grom has sat on the shelf for months because HH hobby has everything on backorder. How about HH putting out a truck that already has all the upgrades. Oh wait Then you wouldn't be able to continue to line there pockets with money. HH hobby sucks . There costumer service is horrible and there website is horrible as well. Diffs on the Grom junk driveshafts junk shocks junk tires junk Bell crank junk. Brushed system junk. Do the math after all those upgrade replacements around 300$ .
As you write that, diffs are in stock now (again) and I've had no problem getting 4 sets. Just have to pay attention. They obviously either underestimated demand or overestimated the stock diff strength. Maybe they'll learn from it or maybe they won't. Either way I'll be enjoying my Groms and other Arrmas.
Another plastic mobile from Arma that's needs at least 300$ of upgrades to make it suitable for a seasoned basher. Instead of coming out with a new truck how about getting the part's for the Grom that have been on backorder for months. HH stinks.

@@benwilson2420 it's an RF6G radiolink receiver, has it built in. You can also get a standalone one that goes between the servo and receiver but that is more wiring and space needed
Not needed but definitely helps, especially with the small scale stuff like the Grom. I'm really close to 70, will be posting another video when I crack it!
@@Killer_of_RCs I am fairly new to rc, and the grom is my first small car. I didn't see or hear you say where the gyro is and what kind you used? is it seperate from the rest or part of the esc? I like the gyro on speed runs.
@@MrGonzoify so normally the gyro is built into your receiver, but you can get them separately. However with the space constraints, it makes sense to get it all in one unit. An example would be a Spektrum sr6100a paired with a dx3/dx5c/dx6c radio. Or in my Typhon I am using a radiolink rf6g paired with the RC6GS radio.
@@Killer_of_RCs Thanks for taking the time to answer. I did some research on the web, and ended up ordering a radiolink combo with the built in gyro. I also picked up a brushless set up that should fit in the space. Thanks again for all the help, cheers.
Would have to go in front of the motor/heatsink on that center stack. It is possible but then it messes with battery clearance and battery install/removal as it is overhanging or blocking (for tall batteries) the tray.

That may be an option, but it's not a standard body post since it is a clipless body. If you had a plastic rod you could probably just make it work with a dremel or file and then just space up the rear with some washers.
That is the Arrma mount set. I forget which letter mount it was but they don't come individually anyway they come as the set for like $10. Since this is 21T it was the 21/59 mount I used.
