Default Metal Gears

As I understand it the metal gears are in the works. Paul said recently that he had finally found a manufacturer for them and that they are forthcoming.

The nitro version has to have gears better than stock electric does. I don't think plastic would survive nitro, alteast the exsting plastic gears.

you are def right sir. Now please direct me to the nearest machinist lol

I played a joke on my buddy. I copy and pasted a description of some stock plastic gears and added "metal" to it all lol. I changed the part number and through him the link... he typed in the part number in and it came up as "item not found" he said they wern't comming up. I told him thats because i bought the last 2 sets... he hung up the phone. lmfao
