Sorry told you im new to this, yes grub screw as its rounded of but may change the pinion, as well

Grub screws: M4 x 4mm for pinny:

I wouldn't use stainless for a pinny screw, the head goes quicker.

 

Also, As with all grubs I found that if you look at the pointed end on them it kind of goes like an inward point in the center. This causes not enough surface on the motor shaft and results in pinion slipping all the time. If you have a dremmel then carefully take a bit off the end to make it flat like I do, I've never had slipppage since due to having more contact area and saves the head as you don't need to tighten as often. :thumbsup:
