The stock ARRMA Typhon brushed is usually around 30 mph-ish , with real-world reports often landing in the high 20s to low 30s depending on battery, terrain, and tire size. For the newer Typhon MEGA 665 brushed , ARRMA says the 14-turn brushed motor is faster and more powerful than the old 550-size setup, and community speed-test discussion still puts it in that same general beginner RC range rather than brushless territory.

What affects speed

A brushed Typhon’s top speed can change a lot based on:

  • Battery voltage.
  • Surface type.
  • Gearing.
  • Tire wear and size.
  • Wind and driving style.

A flat road with a strong battery will usually show the highest number, while grass or rough pavement will drop it noticeably.

Real-world expectation

If you want a simple answer: expect roughly 25–35 mph for a stock brushed Typhon, with some setups landing a bit above or below that. That makes it quick enough to be fun, but still clearly slower than the brushless versions.

Brushed vs brushless

  • Brushed Typhon: cheaper, simpler, slower.
  • Brushless Typhon: faster, stronger acceleration, more upgrade room.

If speed is the main goal, brushless is the better path. If you want easy entry-level fun, brushed is still a solid pick.

TL;DR

A stock ARRMA Typhon brushed generally goes about 30 mph , give or take a few mph.
