chimera

does anyone know if the chimera wheels and tires will fit right onto an XT? thanks

Anyone else wish that RPM would make some flexible Chimera parts? Apparently if you show them evidence of enough interest from users they consider making the part/parts in question. I wish the rear wing mounts were made of their plastic since I endlessly seem to be buying them (not cheap when...

Toying with the idea of getting one of these... http://www.oneillbrothers.com/rc-car/engines/full-mod-engines/6274-7-5hp-full-mod-zenoah-30-5cc-4-bolt-losi-engine.html Just wondering if it will move the position of the exhaust manifold, will my JetPro still mount to the frame OK? Also do...

#1 07463 - the new upgraded sleeved cups #2 710021 - The not new upgraded cups #3 07145 - The original not up to task cups Mine is newer so assuming it had the 710021 from stock, which cracked. I would like the 07463 or a comparable aftermarket, but after searching 7075, DDM, LSRC...

I bought a new Chimera and before even running it I decided to upgrade some parts. My current parts list is as follows. 7075rc Items Front and Rear shock towers. Front and Rear Diff Housings. Gear plate (Closed not open style) And lay shaft. 7075rc Chassis. (Waiting for it to show up.) Other...

I recently purchased a 7075rc diff housing set. My question is on the stock Chimera there is a bracket that fits under the rear diff housing that the cage bolts to. How are people attaching the cage with this diff housing?

the tires on my Chimera SR are locked up I can manually turn one tire and the opposite tire spins opposite. It will not roll on the ground as none of the tires will spin. the engine still runs and the throttle still works it just wont go anywhere what can cause this?

I gave it a good farm bashing over the weekend and a dogbone disappeared??? Are there any aftermarket options with that extra mm or 2 of length? Or are they known to break and fall out? Seems silly to replace with stock if it is just going to happen again. Thanks. BTW, truck is holding up...

Hey does anyone have a link from ddm or anywhere for new tires front and rear. I'm ordering the hpi wheel adapters from rampage. I have the 8k spring, 990 carb and the jetpipe. The stock wheels are OK but they seem to burnout a lot. Im looking for something with more bite. Thanks

I have been playing with and even working in rc for almost 40 years, I gravitate to nitro and gas, so I have several lol nitro and large gas cars/buggies. I picked up a second Chimera ( used, nice ) and it will serve as a base for a custom project, I want to do a car that while not a copy...

So my gasoline chimera had an accident last fall.....broke both 31 and 29 steel gears, the diff cover, front shock tower and part of the roll cage. 2 week ago, I finally decided to fix it all. I turned the engine before doing any work, and it turned on right away.....although I could tell all...

Just managed to bag a ridiculously cheap Chimera SR up from ebay.. **IF** it turns up from china, :eek: :D What should I be looking out for / Be changing from the off? Diff oils ? Shock oils ? Driveshafts etc? Any major weakpoints to address? Not new to 1/5 scales, just never had a...

Found a video of a Chimera racing a DBXL, just shows how underrated the Chimera actually is... I think the lower CG and flatter tyres are allowing it to corner better. The Chimera looses are the end after having lead the majority but driver error is to blame

Why is there only a single set of spider gears in the differential? Is the design such that a cross bar and another set will not fit? Also, I have looked over the manual a couple times looking for the bar and spider part numbers in anticipation of adding them if possible, and I can not find...

I did a hello post for some background if interested: http://www.redcatrampageforum.com/showthread.php?p=153776#post153776 Here are my thoughts and questions after mild tear down and a couple break-in runs: Only real things I did on tear down were remove body panels, chassis plates, white...

Just got a EP. Has anyone come up with a good way to modify the inner cover/ fake drivers to get to the electronics easier. It is ridiculous to try to swap packs with it in place. I've been running with it removed but it takes away from the look a little.

Do Redcat make any tyres that are marginally taller/larger than stock, how about the XSC ones? I am after a tiny bit of extra ground clearance and maybe width however I am mindful of the extra load that could potentially be placed on the gears. Additionally I don't want to loose the cool scale...

looking for the set screw for the drive shaft its only running in front wheel drive i cant find the part number thanks :)

I ran my chimera sr, and the gears melted! Missing teeth etc. I was wondering where to buy some high performance gears that won't wear out so quick. Thanks

Hello my name is jordan I am new to the site. I am going to purchase a chimera on this Friday and wanted to know the "list" of the important things I need to do. I know I will need to put some tubing over my drive cups, possibly "vent" the fuel tank, and was told I should get the 7075rc diff...
