The time has come to part ways with my Arrma Typhon 6s RC car as with being a busy dad; I just don't get the time to use it. I figured I'd look at taking up a new hobby and I spent a bit of time watching RC reviews on YouTube with a few whiskeys in hand... Possibly a few too many whiskeys as when the postman knocked on my door with an Arrma Typhon in his hands... I had zero recollection of ordering it. That said, it's easily the best present that drunk me has given my sober self. 😁 Anyhow, this is a 1/8 scale, 70mph capable beast and it's in excellent condition with it only ever being used sparingly. I have only ever ran the car on 4s and as well as it being devastatingly quick... It also handles superbly. This car has never been jumped or "bashed" per se and it has never seen a ramp... It has only ever been ran in my local tesco car park on the odd Sunday evening when I had the time. However the car has sat on a shelf unused for nearly two years and although it looks incredibly cool, it's now time to offer it up for sale and have somebody enjoy it as it was intended. The car has been very carefully looked after and I always made sure it was thoroughly cleaned and properly lubricated after every single run, without fail. It's got upgraded GPM shock towers which are tougher than the stock and add a nice aesthetic touch. I've also added carbon fibre mud guards and an rpm skid plate on the rear. The underside protector decal was applied when the chassis was new and there are no scratches underneath. I've firmed up the shocks a little with 800cst oil however there is an unopened bottle of the stock 500cst oil included too. The shocks are without leaks. The car will come with loads of extras: 2 shells, 1 of which is in new and unused condition, the other used shell is still in great nick, with just two small bits of tape on the underside which have stopped some small cracks from getting any bigger. 3 sets of wheels in total - The car is currently sporting a set of Fastrax road wheels and tyres with loads of tread left. I've also included 1 set of unused Sweep Racing USA GT belted road wheels and tyres (These Cost around £50 new). The original Arrma Dboots Katar wheels are also present. Imax b6 balance charger and a power supply. Various adapters for different plug connectors. Shock oils and diff grease. 5x fireproof lipo safe bags. Front and rear LED light kit and all cables-Not currently fitted however they work great and look amazing. 'Dusty Motors' fitted waterproof cover and unused shock socks. Dedicated RC tools -Including a set of Makerfire tools which are still in the packet. Loads of arrma spares, and screws etc... I'm clearing out all of my remaining RC bits here so there will be the odd bit within the spares lot that will be from other arrma models -However they will still have resale value... Such as an infraction /felony diff and spur gear (These sell for around £40), aswell as skid plates, bumpers etc. The original Arrma manual, unused sticker sheets, bind plug, unused speed pinion and wrench tool are also included. Basically everything it came with new except the box. Please study the photos to get a proper idea of the condition. The only noticeable wear is a small amount of discolouration in places on the threads of the red shock bodies. However this is, a very, very minor issue and I'm only mentioning this in the interest of being 100% transparent. Listed on ebay with no reserve.

Looking into the absima stoke 6s. Information about the vehicle is hard to come by as I dont speak German and all the videos are in that language. Does anyone have any first hand experience with it? Can it really handle 6s power? Is it worth getting the 6s version over the 4s version? Is it worth getting at all or just go with an arrma 3s? Thanks
