Default Drive shaft set screws

Anyone know where to get some extra set screws? I have two wraith kits, one finished, one under construction. First run, lost a set screw. I know, loctite, my dumb ass mistake. Well I am going to order MIP today. I just want to have some extra set screws for backup.

Never mind, I figured it out. I looked at the axial part number from my instructions and found them at ckrc.

The MIP's use a 4mm set screw, not 3mm that Axial uses.

On RPP site, the description says it uses the 3mm axial screws...

After I loctite mine in I also wrap electrical tape around the collar...that helps if they loosen off even with blue loctite. Just a little extra insurance. Maybe I am crazy but I think I read this tip somewhere before.

The wraith Spec Mip's use the axial M3 size .
The rest use the 4mm revo style ones .

I tried blue lokt tight with no luck. Just had to check them every ounce in awhile.

I've switched to tmaxx and revo drive lines and they never back out.

Shrink wrap (adhesive lined) around them works too and wont come off as easy.
