Default Hex Drill bits

I got an electric screwdriver type tool for xmas. It fits your average bits, not the kind a chruck is required to use - you just pop them in and your ready to go. I have been looking for some bits to fit the screws for my SCX10, like the hex's. Problem is I cant find any. Someone please show me the light

Is it like the Craftsman quick coupler or something like that? Got a pic or link to what you have. If it is one of those or similar, possibly try Sears, or the like.

HTH

Good Luck

Intdegy makes a set with two handles that I use in my driver all the time.

Dynamite has them in single bits , something like $7.69 each. Losi's seem to be best bet for the money at about $5 each if you count them seperate.

still going up here. got a 1.9 rig ready to rock, and my sportsman went tuber.

somebody on another forum was saying that OFNA makes a killer hex set that goes into 1/4" drive quick change drills.

my dynamites seem to round things off pretty well, or they round off equally with the hardware.

These are really good. I have been using them in a Black and Decker electric driver for probably 8 months or so and they are still working good.

Spend the extra money and get a good set. I have an Integy set and a EHeli set. I wouldn't advise using the tips in a drill though... I know for a fact the 1.5mm driver in the Integy set is really weak. I've snapped it twice. I have not broken and of the XHeli (EXI) drivers yet. They're a nice blue/silver machined aluminum with long tips. I think they are 10 times better than the Integy set, but the Integey set is good as well.

DO NOT waster your money on those 50 piece sets....trust me they are junk. They'll round off and round out your screws...

Remember.....you get what you pay for.

I too got an electric screw driver for Xmas...then i went out and bought these, http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXNXM3&P=SM. Everything you need in one set.

I found them on Amazon cheaper, but not there anymore.
