chimera

Got a question Why is everyone buying the wheel adapters? See below the picture of the wheel hexes that came on my Chimera EP Pro I just picked up. It looks like a standard 24mm hex, no?

I read through some posts to try and find my answer and never really did. So....i want to adjust the stiffness of the shocks on my redcat chimer. I am just not sure if i need new shocks or if i can increase stiffness with different shock oil. Im just starting to look into this so any tips will...

I was just curious if I broke a diff cup while romping my Chimera, could i just pull the dog bone out and keep romping? Considering it is 4 wheel drive. Not sure if it would put any stress on the differential, only spinning one tire . I don't plan on doing this a lot, i was just thinking if i...

Well my steering servo is going out, i lost most of the ability to turn right. I was ready for this and have my steering servo on hand. I started looking into replacing it and it looks like it is a pretty serious tear down, and it involves removing the throttle servo. I was just looking for...

So just picked up the Chimera EP pro. This thing is pretty awesome. Having some trouble with battery selection. I picked up a couple 6000mah 3S batteries since many of the high mAh 6S batteries wouldn't fit or were crazy expensive. My question is gearing - what is the stock pinion size? I...

Hello all! Been lurking and searching this site for awhile. I just bought myself an EP Pro a week ago, and aside from a little slop here and there, I am pretty impressed with this thing! First of all, a little about myself. New to the Chimera, but have been an RC modeler for a long time. I've...

So I bought a none running chimera sr gas model a few months ago and found out the engine was bad. After looking into engines I decided to convert it to electric. I like that the electrics can go through some water and played in the snow so that's another reason why. I bought the motor mount...

Running like a champ. This Redcat impressed a lot of guys today. There was a Baja with a race motor and my Son was right with him race after race. This car is a beast with a Jetpro pipe. Replacing the servos though. The steering one is getting weak.

Well i was out running my Chimera. Found some sweet spots to get some air, then i found a tree. Lol. Looks like the front differential cup broke so i am tearing into it in the next couple days. I ordered upgraded front control arms, considering i will basically taking them off anyhow. I...

I'm installing dual shocks on my rear but need longer screws. Any suggestions? ?

Well i have gotten my new chimera running. I am doing the break in process now. I have done some reading and feel that my idle speed is set up well and i need to start looking into tuning the high speed needle. I currently run it and have consistent blue smoke from the exhaust and the engine...

Well i just got my new Chimera yesterday. I wasn't able to get it running last night. So today i get to check the spark plug and things like that. If there are any tips for a new RC/Chimera owner i am all ears. Looking forward to getting it running.

I was wondering if anyone removed the inner roll cage on their Chimera? The plug and engine is easier to get to. Anyone? Thanks

I have Carry Bags For My 1/8 Scale. ... Are there are bags out there for Carrying 1/5 Scales?

Tell ya what these cars are rock solid. This weekend on the track, my Son burnt thru a little more then a quart of fuel and never let up at all. He ran the Chimera into the ground. By the end of the day it was hard idling and was driving me nuts due to stalling on hard braking and idling for...

Anyone have any pictures of a x-can on a chimera needing to look at some clearance for some custim exhaust

After a hard day of racing the Chimera, my son was noticing the steering was lagging. I figured the servo was checking out. Upon a closer look it seems the front swaybar links are bending allowing the swaybar to bend back pushing the swaybar end link into the steering links, stopping the...

Ok this box is 1/5 scale and looks like it has a little bit more room but I do like the switch placement and its metal so we'll see how it goes in!!!

Hi, im new on the forum and in the next days i will be buying a Chimera, my first 1/5 scale. Right now im deciding on the air filter. I read here on the forum that many guys recomend the hpi filter, but it has clearance issues with the linkage. Then i saw on DDM the DT1 dome filter...
