Learn how to install the Redcat 50006N receiver/battery box on your Rampage Chimera SR, MT, or XT. Step-by-step guide with common mistakes to avoid.

Quick Answer

Installing the Redcat 50006N receiver/battery box is a straightforward swap for single-servo Rampage models. Follow these steps to avoid damaging the plastic box or misrouting the wires.

What You Need Before Starting

The 50006N receiver/battery box is a direct-fit replacement for the Rampage Chimera SR, Rampage MT, and Rampage XT. It also fits the legacy Rampage Dunerunner. You will need a small Phillips-head screwdriver and a pair of needle-nose pliers to remove the old box. The part comes as a single piece with no included hardware, so reuse the screws from your original box.

This part is designed for a single steering servo configuration. If your Rampage uses dual servos, the 50006N will not fit properly.

Installation Steps

  1. Remove the Old Box: Disconnect the battery and remove the four screws holding the original receiver/battery box to the chassis. Gently lift the box and disconnect the receiver and servo wires from the receiver. Use needle-nose pliers if the connectors are tight. Label each wire with tape before disconnecting to avoid confusion during reassembly.
  2. Prepare the New 50006N Box: Inspect the new box for any flash or burrs on the plastic edges. If present, lightly sand them with fine-grit sandpaper. Place the receiver inside the box and route the antenna wire through the designated slot. Do not force the receiver into the box—if it does not sit flat, check that the foam padding is positioned correctly.
  3. Mount and Connect: Position the 50006N box on the chassis and align the screw holes. Insert and tighten the four screws evenly—do not overtighten, as the plastic can crack. Reconnect the servo and battery wires to the receiver according to your labels. Test the steering and throttle before securing the lid. If the steering servo moves in the wrong direction, swap the servo wire to the opposite channel or reverse it in the transmitter settings.
