PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Loaded with high-end parts for improved strength, handling, and long-term durability, the 1/8 scale ARRMA® TLR® Tuned TYPHON 4WD Race Buggy Roller provides bashers with the perfect platform for entering competitive racing and experimenting with their chassis to achieve the best performance.

The large number of TLR® Tuned parts and factory-finished body with bold racing colour scheme immediately set this model apart from its ready-to-run TYPHON 6S BLX 4WD Speed Buggy brother. The TLR® Tuned TYPHON 4WD Race Buggy Roller is the ultimate ARRMA® 1/8 scale buggy straight out of the box, primed and ready to hit the racetrack - and still tough enough to handle off-road bashing. Just add your choice of 4S or 6S brushless power system and the TLR® Tuned TYPHON will blast over rough terrain with ease.

The durable TLR® Tuned aluminium upgrades include the chassis plate, steering rack, adjustable upper and lower suspension hangers, shock bodies, and front and rear shock towers. All are laser-etched with the TLR® Tuned logo. The chassis also features strong composite side pods and front and rear braces. The oil-filled, adjustable shocks have machined tapered pistons and Extreme Bash stand-offs.
The TLR® Tuned TYPHON 4WD Race Buggy Roller also features a heavy-duty drivetrain that holds up to extreme bashing, with all-metal diff outdrives and gearbox internals plus durable steel driveshafts throughout. Its extra-strong wheel hubs support low-drag wheels on which ARRMA® engineers have mounted multi-terrain, race compound dBoots® Exabyte tyres for next-level grip. A Race Spec tunable rear wing helps to keep the tyres and buggy grounded, contributing to confident control and responsive handling at high speeds.

Maintenance downtime is kept to the minimum with an efficient, driver-friendly design. For example, an aluminium sliding mount gives you fast, hassle-free access to your motor.

The 1/8 scale TLR® Tuned TYPHON 4WD Race Buggy Roller is the ultimate ARRMA® buggy. For intermediate-level bashers interested in racing, it offers top-of-the-line durability and tuning capabilities to give you a successful head start.

TLR Tuned Parts

The TLR Tuned TYPHON 4WD Race Buggy Roller has been upgraded with high-end aluminium parts that increase durability and improve handling. For intermediate-level bashers, it's the perfect platform to use for racing and to gain experience with tuning - Designed Fast and Designed Tough!


Oil Filled Shocks

The adjustable oil-filled shocks are mounted on TLR Tuned 7075-T6 Aluminium Shock Towers and feature TLR Tuned Aluminium Shock bodies, machined tapered shock pistons, and EXB Extreme Bash shock stand-offs. They easily soak-up bumps over dirt, asphalt, and grass for super-smooth damping.


The suspension hangers have also received the TLR Tuned treatment. These aluminium hangers are anodized and laser etched in the TLR Tuned style. The suspension hangers use adjustment blocks that allow you to tune the geometry of the suspension to maximize the performance of your buggy.


The chassis plate has machined in pockets where material has been strategically removed to reduce weight without sacrificing strength.


A Race Spec tunable rear wing helps to keep the tyres and buggy grounded, contributing to confident control and responsive handling at high speeds. The wing is tunable using 5mm or 10mm Gurney flaps that can be mounted to the rear edge. These alter the downforce that is created by the wing.


High Traction dBoots Exabyte Tyres

The dBoots Exabyte tyres are made of high-quality, race compound rubber for long-lasting durability and feature a multi-surface tread pattern for excellent traction in all conditions. They include foam inserts and are pre-glued to low-drag, 1/8 buggy nylon wheels. The 17mm hex fitting provides strength during extreme action and allows easy maintenance.


Race Spec Finished Body

Topping off the TLR Tuned TYPHON 4WD Race Buggy Roller is a sleek, factory-finished body featuring exclusive Race Spec colours and decals. A low-drag, tunable rear wing helps keep the buggy grounded, contributing to confident control and responsive handling at thrilling high speeds.


The front hub nuts, 17mm aluminium wheel hexes and steering plates have also received black anodizing.


TLR Tuned steering rack features multiple mounting positions for the steering links. This allows you to tune the level of Ackermann in the steering system.


The TLR Tuned front lower aluminium suspension mounts use adjustment blocks to tune the suspension arm geometry. These allow the front kick-up, width and roll center of the front lower arms to be adjusted.
