Default RE: New to the 1/5 scale RC world

Thank you all for your replies on the firehammer...I will be checking all the info out...
Question..seeing how this is used and not sure what is all wrong with the firehammer..engine ,servos.exhaust new...so maybe should install all new bearingswheels,diff and clutch..
that way I know where I am at on this..My son found a complete bearing set for $49.95 plus shipping...as for steel pinion a must..oh yeah my son also found a think FG alloy plate for the spur gear..to use the plastic gear....
Or would it be better to use all metal gears?I would like to find a cone shaped airfilter K&N style...I know years ago you used a vol stack on carb and then the airfilter..that was on dirt bikes..
I will open up the rear diff..if gears bad will replace them....Any way my son offered to help pay for this stuff...It would take me like 3 months to get $100 bucks saved up..
Once again thank you all..If you want too Pm me or e-mail me feel free to do so..cuz
Maybe some of this would be too long to go thru in the forum...
