|  Screw fell off slipper clutch
Hi all, I was inspecting my model last night and noticed of the recessed hex head screws had fallen off. I'm pretty sure they were on tightly, but the remaining two were loose as well and there was significant wobble. Can anyone recommend to me a suitable type of screw to replace it with, or will any similar sized one from my traxxas parts bin suffice? Thanks.

I believe you should be able to replace them with some in your parts bin, Just make sure to try them nice and easy so you don't force it in there stripping it out. Also, Don't take my word for it but you may want to try some threadlock if thise keeps happening. Hope this helps you out  -Tim |

Try using thread lock next time. Any 3mm screw should work, and they will all come loose over time if threadlock isn't used.
