Their gears require a 2.5 driver right?I've switched to Tekno gears as they use a larger set screw. Even then I use isopropyl alcohol to clean them first. If its a used gear that has seen locktite a couple time I will get them warm with a mini torch and burn it off. Then clean the residue with alcohol. Always let it sit for 24 hours otherwise it's going to come loose.
Nice. I'm gonna make the switch for my bashers at some point for that reason alone.2.5 or 3, I can remember but the actual bit size but it's an M5 set screw.
Yessir, 2.5mm driver it is for Tekno pinions. I recently replaced all of my M5 grub screws with Torx® grubs and they have just been excellent. Can recommend.Their gears require a 2.5 driver right?
I'll see if they make them in Torx plus. I believe I have drivers in that size. Torx plus is the best thing since beer.Yessir, 2.5mm driver it is for Tekno pinions. I recently replaced all of my M5 grub screws with Torx® grubs and they have just been excellent. Can recommend.
Took me a bit of searching to find M5 Torx grub screws so if it's of any help, mine are made by FG. It doesn't say Torx plus specifically, but I've been exceedingly happy with these.I'll see if they make them in Torx plus. I believe I have drivers in that size.

I use my mini torch, a wire brush, and a pair of needle nose pliers to hold the screw.How you CLean off loctite....with a Degreaser?

DON'T lay the hot screw on the wooden dining room table!
DON'T lay the hot screw on a good towel (Also, DON'T use a good towel for anything RC)!
DON'T lay the hot screw on the carpet!
I also use Robinson Racing pinions and as of today are now on all three rigs, no more stock pinions or grubs for me.
You would be correct! Although this was one incident, the hot screw was on the towel to start, then the table and finally on the floor.I feel like you are speaking a little bit from experience here
Hit the trifecta, did ya?You would be correct! Although this was one incident, the hot screw was on the towel to start, then the table and finally on the floor.
Or ask the wife to hold it lolYou would be correct! Although this was one incident, the hot screw was on the towel to start, then the table and finally on the floor.
My Tekno pinions have a 5mm grub screw with a 2.5mm socket. I’ve never felt the need to go to Torx grubs because I’ve never had issues with them coming loose.2.5 or 3, I can remember but the actual bit size but it's an M5 set screw.
