HI all.
Iam after a titanium screw set found one on ebay but iam having problems getting 4 screws out of the chassis iam sure iam using the right size driver worked on all the others???.
Would it be worth buying a huby one???.
Also need some inspiration for a colour on a new shell???.
Thanks all.

Are they underneath? the screws on the old car were crap - the newer screws on the 501Xwe and 511 are better. If your screws aren't coming out that means you already tried - and if you already tried then there's not much chance of a better driver getting them out tbh but its worth a try. I got a 2mm HUDY driver myself just for the same exact reason as you - but I still had to slot a couple of screws to get them out sadly

The 'we' is the Worlds Edition - nothing to do with the Worlds - just an excuse to put every option part on one car with no regard to performance
I think it uses the same screws as the TRF511 - not the best screws ever but better than the original 501X screws.

I think 'Tony Screws' do a kit for the 501X - their screws are the best Steel ones you can get.
Titanium screws are a bit lighter but I'm not sure they're any stronger and certainly you'd not use them to mount the upper shocks as the'd just break.
My 501X has titanium screws and alloy for some non-structural parts - and steel for the shock mounting. I got my Titanium screws individually bagged like 10 to a bag or something - I think they were cheap Yeah Racing screws.
