Desire RcRacing will be doing screw kits for all the popular metric cars in the next couple of weeks.

They will be torx headed so you are very unlikey to ever strip he heads out.

I will post details when I have a firm price and date.

Kit screws are something i do not have an problem with, make sure you are using a good 2mm driver.

I do individual kits as I have changed mine to cap heads. I will do them for £20 and that is all the screws for the kit. Steel that is.

Thanks for all the reply
I use good tools, but found that on the x pro some screws, mainly once going into chassis were hard 2 screw in, i ended up using a small bit of grease just 2 make sure they come back out, but found that after a crash(which happens sometimes) that some heads just rounded!

Ive got a Ansmann 3mm thread cutting tap (part# 203000078) ready for when my Mad Rat X Pro arrives Which will hopefully help
