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 importing them from the states). Anyone that else share my views then I will collate this thread and make them aware in the hope they knock one up. If not I make seem if I can getting something 3D printed in Nylon.

RPM has never been able to justify any Redcat parts.

1000x yes. I actually have asked a fellow forum member to make them out of metal. I am on my 4th one.

He said he would be looking into it, as well as a full roll cage.

You should post interest there, might help progress.

I will work with Brian and see if we can make them out of machined aluminum while he make the tubular roll cage.

Thanks Rob, that would be excellent!

I would definitely spend the money for a real roll cage and wing mounts!

Which of the 3 wing mounts are you guys breaking ?

 

[FMcamaroZ28]

Mostly the curved section. Then secondly the flat part that holds the wing.

The X brace against the truck has not been broken for me, at least.

The curved section takes the beating.

I keep breaking the peice that holds the wing and the lower bent section this should be curved instead of bent it would make it much stronger. I would defiantly buy some aluminum ones if would make them.
