Gearbox problem
Hey guys!
I just took my kyosho DBX for a spin and I hit a bump at medium speed and the car flipped. When I flipped it back I noticed that pushing the throttle increases rpm but car does not move and I heard clinging in the gearbox. I also noticed that the air filter poped out. I stalled it (accidentally pulled out the fuel pipe
) wiht pliers and took it home. here is a vid after taking the gearbox on and off:

Please tell me if there is still anything wrong with it.
P.S. Any1 know how I could have gotten fuel/grease/oil on the flywheel and air filter?

ok I figered it out. It was the back brakes, the screwes shifted so that the brake was apllied at idle. QUICK QUESTION though:
With the brake adjustments as in the manual, the back brake locks at full brake, but the front only slows down the diff. is that supposed to be like that or should I tighten the front to make it lock?

ok thx. I am having to adjust the brakes by hand anyway. I'll make sure I apply more to back but I want them to lock since I enjoy drifting.

ok I just can't figure this out!!! 
:flam ing:: flaming:
So adjusting the brakes does not solve it! I take off the engine/flywheel and the noise stops (btw noise only when throttle applied which isn't in the vid so vid is usless), I test the flywheel and it doesn't make the noise either by itself (and anyway how could the throttle affect the flywheel when the car isn't running). WHAT IS UP WITH THIS?
