"Ripper!!!" NEW ARRMA Typhon GROM 4x4 Stock vs Brushless Power 

UPDATE 😱. The Hobbywing Quicrun setup is smoother, more powerful, and cheaper than the Spectrum 6000kv motor/esc combo in this video. Have a 2nd Typhon Grom in the family running the Hobbywing 2435 6500kv with 16BL30 ESC and it rips with an 18T mod 0.5 pinion. Used a 3D printed ESC mount from RCB off eBay to mount it. In a nutshell, thanks to everyone that recommended the Hobbywing setup!!! 🍻

This is definitely the best running most fun to watch video ive seen for the Arrma Typhon Grom hands down. Excellent thats so much fun watching you surf the bowls at the skatepark. This little Typhon Grom RIPS man. I have to get myself one. I was looking at the 1/8 scale but the Grom is damned AWESOME 👌👍💪

Now that's how you drive an rc so we can see how it really performs. Thank you

That's a WHOLE LOTTA FUN that everybody can afford!!! Wicked in the bowls!!!! Great bash! thanks for posting!!!

Nice to see you get one and have tons of fun

So awesome. Glad you featured this little fella!

I got into drifting (RC and then in real life lol) so I’ve been away from bashing for awhile. A guy at the track mentioned the Grom today and I immediately went home and checked your channel. Awesome to see that you’re still killing it! I just ordered two Typhon Groms. One to build into a brushless basher, and one to see how it does on our drift tracks. We have plenty of 1/10 scale options for drift chassis, but the 1/18 options are fragile or expensive, or both lol! If I can make the Grom slide well with some retrofitted drift parts and a gyro then it might explode in popularity in the drift scene for the chassis alone. Can’t wait for the UPS truck!

I will say out of all my Arrma RC cars their Grom lineup is the most durable lineup yet

That thing is killer another awesome run bro thanks Rich!!👊🤟

Hello rich,man as always a great bash,the best one I've seen on it,as always you put em through the paces,be waiting for the next video good day!!!

Great action! I can't believe how well the Grom performs. The information on the pinion shaft size was very helpful. Great driving skills my friend. 👍

Yo brother I enjoy your videos you were the very first RU-vidr I started watching when I started this awesome hobby in my eyes I think your the best you do some awesome things with rc cars number 1 driver definitely the best in jumping keep it up your awesome dude

Such a cool platform! I hope the aftermarket takes to ‘em. I can see lots of cool custom stuff being built by the talented dudes out here, grom Outcast would have been cooler than the granite but they nailed the Typhon! thanks for the share 🤘🏼🤘🏼🚀🔥

Great Video and driving 😊I want one for my collection.And Yes brushless Really good ESC And Motor Combo.Keep the good work up my fellow Rc friend 😊

I converted mine to brushless with the Hobbywing quicrun. I found at the skatepark it was so much more fun running the 1/14 scale Hoonicon street tires. Better grip but can still slide. Give them a try. It makes for a fun street basher. Also any 1/10 touring car street tires with the smaller hex work great too for the skate park. You are an epic RC car driver.

Great content, Rich! Awesome review.

Incredible session 😮

Reminds me a lot of the old Losi mini 8ight when they first came out! Super fun little cars, I haven’t got a Typhon grom yet but definitely will when work slows down and I get time to bash again 🤘🏻🤞🏻 epic video, feel like the skatepark is my favorite place for the small scale stuff!

I want one ❤ I put that hobbywing system in my granite grom and it's crazy. Quad backflips all day on 3s.

Glad you picked up one of these and threw a brushless system in it. The granite grom is cool and all but the Typhon + skate park is where it’s at! The handling on this rig is pretty damn good for its size compared to the granite. So much fun to rip around! 🤘🚀🔥🔥

Awesome with the brushed off the hook with the brushless love it

The skatepark is growing bigger and bigger😉

I was hoping you would pick one of these mini typhon's up. The fact that it not only geld up in that insanity of a park but was able to hit the same lines you normally hit which is no easy bashing but did it in style qs always! Gotta get myself one and I like that blue body(good ol tribute to the OG Typhon that we all know and love ). Arrma really has diversified quite a bit over the last few years now I just wish they would make a 1/5 typhon!

WOW 😳😂. That mini joker is super agile and quick! Impressive to durability and speed for a stock setup. Definitely gonna one up for my son. Stock electronics are adequate and plenty to rip around and have Fun. Awesome run brother. Very noticeable difference going brushless. What a ripper 😂.

Epic rip as always!! 🎉

Legendary

Rock on brother 🤘

I was so close to buy one brother Rich❤, have motors and esc at home. But not sure bout the rough G-Pit..as a Skatepark killer youbdef showed it will take a LOT. ❤❤Looks super dialed❤❤❤❤

What a great video brother.... I ran mine stock and got 23mph I've since went brushless with the 16bl30 and the 4500kv motor 18t Robinson pinion.... and I also thru on the granite grom tires to give it that truggifed look and feel and it does it perfectly hope I get it out today for a bit of fun.... Keep being a rockstar rich love all the videos

here i am with all my big expensive large scale and fast bashers, little did I know the Grom Typhon would be my go to basher that's safe enough for my 6 year old nephew. great running footage, this park was made for the Grom!

These Groms are so cool for what they are. I herd that Arrma is going to do the to the Kraton Grom soon and some EXB versions down the line. I definitely have pick up this mini Typhon for sure 😂…

What an awesome fun ripper. I put a brushless set up in my granite grom and it's a blast. Against my better judgment tho I didn't swap out the diffs so they didn't last long lol but I'm gonna get the upgrade. I put the 1/16 redcat volcano tires on it and they are fantastic. Still not foam filled but better rotational mass. Would be a great option if you were to wanna make a truggified typhon grom. I do want to grab the typhon next especially after seeing how great it is at the skatepark. Thanks for such a fun video🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

Dang, bowl skateparks look incredible for rcs, when doing restrained freerunning since trying to do tricks. And the good thing is, with these small scale rcs, are extra durable since small scale, is light, usually flexible plastic.

Damn. Even stock it looks like a lot of fun. I might just pick one up! For when I travel around 😂

nice video!

Not bad for the price, I kinda like the little thing, seems really fun at the skatepark.

That thing is fast Rich 😃!

13:10 legendary proof 😉

That micro-machine scoots like a bat out of hell!

Absolutely love your channel!! Just subbed up! Are you still running stick diffs? I just put a 3s brushless system into mine and you will definitely need upgraded diffs if your going 3s with your hobbywing setup.

I missed this whole Grom thing 🙄 Not sure if I’m a fan Bra. I just don’t get it 🤔 In saying that it looks like fun. Keep it up my man love your work ✊🏼

I really want to see you truggify this and take it to your big area with the mounds and rip it there to see how well it does. M2C I understand has made some upgrades as well as arrma, so I can’t wait for that video. Thanks.

Question. How did you mount that heatsink on the Firma motor? The factory one is to big.

Really fun to watch. MT tires next?

Blew the tires off of my typhon 6s on first battery. Got parts in yesterday to redo the tires. Managed to get all tires off etc etc. put m2c extender 8mm shaft +15mm on the car. Put 8 screws in each tire for the bigger hex adapters. Go to toss the 2.8 proline tires on….. don’t have a tool that’ll fit into the new tire rim to tighten the nuts. Sigh

Did you have to use different size screws for the motor mount on the spektrum setup?

Do you still have your talion ? I am picking one up the EXB tomorrow I can't wait

I just picked one up yesterday, a lot fun in the house , I thought the 2/1 6000 were to small , maybe guys were using 2.3 pinions and why breaking shafts

You’re a pretty good driver. I guess all theses guys breaking diffs and other parts must be do to bad drivers 😅

Did you have to do any modifications to get the brushless system in there? Or direct fit?

How did you mount the new spectrum motor to the motor plate

I'd take my team associated reflex 14mt. It can from the factory brushless. Not having to rebuild it like the groms

Wondering how the Spektrum Firrma motor/esc is holding up?

Awesome video, Rich. I just got the new Mini-T 2.0 V2 in the mail yesterday and haven't had a chance to run it yet with the rain today but it has the Spektrum SR315 in it and I'm going to throw the same receiver in my Typhon so I can just use one transmitter. What transmitter do you usually use for bashing?

What receiver will work with the stock transmitter?

Did you use the stock receiver plate?

Have you tried the hobbywing setup yet? I’m about to order the same one but gonna try the 6500kv motor out since that 6000 looked like fun

How is the motor holding until now i seen alot bad reviews about that motor frying up thinking on doing it mine with the same set up

brotha! how is goin the grom so far with that set up firma? im about to do the same set up with mine!! same set up!! i see is a clean mount and its looks almost factory.

what tires do you like the best on the truggified 6s typhon?

I live in your area, what are the locations in the video?

If you had to own one rc, what would it be and why?

link to the store please :-)

Rich I was watching your video on the fireteam basherqueen cage upgrade. Could you or would you be down to sign the stock talion body and send it to me for my daughter. She absolutely loves your RU-vid channel. I will pay for shipping and body. You would make her day.
