essential 5th scale tool:

Don't buy any tools with alloy handles, they will just destroy themselves. the "power tips" from EDS are awesome when married up to a small ratchet handle.

Ive snapped a couple of them ddm ones. Not when the bolt is tight either. They are too long and wobble too much.

Tryed bondhus with success, and have a set of eds power tips from freeprawn on their way.

Bondhus allen keys are what I mainly use.

Dynamite rc do a large scale deluxe driver set. It's perfect for the losi. The ball drivers are crap tho and will snap. Also get the Bosch Ixo electric driver, it will make things way easier.

is this the sort off driver you suggest
