So I got my clutch, brakes, and kill switch all in today. So... I thought they would come with instructions... They did not... I searched YouTube quite well with no true luck. I need to know some good links for replacing all these parts however the kill switch did come with decent instructions. Also will I need that piston stop tool for the clutch replacement? I also got one of those gas vents that a lot of people have. Heres pictures of what I have/have coming. Still waiting on the transmitter/reciever and roto starter. I did get a impact driver that will spin it plenty fast enough (over 2100 rpm). You all are awesome and I appreciate all the info you all have shared.

The tank vent I used a brake caliper bleeder valve from a car. I tapped threads into the center of the fill cap, threaded the bleeder down it then ziptied the vent valve hose onto the bleeder. I cut the center out of the rubber inner parts of the fill cap leaving the outer ring for the cap to seal.
The clutch is straight forward. Use a piston stop can get it from amazon, ebay, ddm racing etc. Then pay attention to where all the washers go when removing the clutch. Any hpi or losi 5th scale video will be the same

Oh and I don't think I'd use an impact driver with that roto start. It is made for a drill only. The impact driver will sit there and hammer on it when you really want to spin it, and spin it fast. I use a milwaukee m18 1/2" drill with the killer rc drill starter system
