In the realm of RC buggies, the Arma Typhon 665 Mega storms onto the scene as a budget-friendly option that doesn't skimp on performance. With a price tag over $100 lower than its 223S counterpart, this buggy packs a punch with its responsive handling and impressive jumping capabilities. Sporting a classic TYON body with three color choices and a user-friendly push-button body mounting system, the 665 Mega exudes style and convenience. The addition of a large double deck spoiler, heavy-duty wing mount, and sturdy bumpers further solidify its durability during intense bashing sessions.
Underneath its sleek exterior lies a well-engineered platform shared with other Arma models, ensuring a robust and versatile design. From the oil-filled shocks and independent suspension to the reinforced drivetrain components, every detail is meticulously crafted for a smooth and resilient performance. The drivetrain enhancements, including oil-filled differentials, ball bearings, and an overload coupler for 3S capability, showcase Arma's commitment to durability without compromising on power. Paired with black dish wheels, deboots two ho tires, and a waterproof 665 motor with an internal fan, the 665 Mega is ready to conquer various terrains with ease.
In the electronics department, the 665 Mega doesn't disappoint, featuring a 9 kg metal gear servo, Spectrum 40 amp speed controller receiver combo, and a robust 665 motor with a cooling fan. The inclusion of the Spectrum SLT2 radio with DSC compatibility for the 223S system adds a layer of versatility for users looking to customize their experience. Overall, the Arma Typhon 665 Mega stands out as a solid choice for entry-level RC enthusiasts seeking a perfect balance of speed, durability, and performance in a cost-effective package.
