Such negative comments from grown men. Lol. Anyways, I was out in the field and didnt have my garage of tools to work with so we were kind of stuck doing a repair. Stumbled onto this video and tried the loctite super glue method and it actually worked for us lol. Allowed us to make a repair and keep on driving our tiny cars until the end of the night! Thanks for the information.
I'm about 6 years late to this game. I realize the author is young, and likely inexperienced. I'm also sure in 6 years, he's learned much better ways to handle this. - Try using a backout bit. - Dremel a slit and use a flat screwdriver to remove screw. - Carefully use vice grips. - DON'T use torx drivers in hex screws. Always use good quality, properly sized hex drivers. - DON'T use hammers. You risk damaging your driver, or the car itself. - DON'T try to use super glue. If it runs, you risk permanently gluing the screw to whatever it's attached to. Some commenters mentioned this as a track fix. If you must fix, take it home and do it right, lest you cause unneeded frustration and cost.
Is it just me or would it make more sense to use an allen head instead of a torx bit in an allen head screw? That would reduce the amount of stripped screw heads....
I think he tried to use an Allen screw and it never worked so he used a torx screw to hopefully get some grip to pull it out. I've don't the same, when Allen screws are stripped put in a torx screw of a bigger size, if the screw is plastic, hammer it in a bit and then unscrew
Allen are the worst screws. I have issues with them everytime when I do my maintenance, (Sometimes I need to repleace all the piece for only one stripped allen screw) I never had this problem with the Tamiya kits that use philips
Mine sucks cause I have 2 going into the frame I got it as a present 8 years ago and never needed the parts they connect off until now I'm thinking I'll just take a grinder to them
Ok guys and this video is to show you "how not to take out a stripped screw". All three had the possibility of a dangerous out come. Luckily nobody was hurt during the making of this video. 1st you shouldn't use glue on your tools to break something loose. 2nd a child shouldn't be using a lighter without parental supervision. 3rd you shouldn't use your hand as leverage that close to a flat head screw driver. You can easily slip and stab yourself. I strongly suggest learning how to use your tools.
Okay mommy. BTW, women really shouldn't run around with the name 'eddie.' Try Edwina. It would probably terrify you to know I, a woman, allow our children as young as five to use machetes. And guess what, my youngest is now eight and he's brave, skillful, and strong. And, God willing, won't be a man who's scared to let a kid use a lighter. If you can't trust a kid with a lighter, you have some serious parenting problems.
Just want to throw this out there.... A Stainless Steel screw or bolt would have not been cut by the saw very easily... Stainless is hardened rust and oxidation resistant metal. You want regular aka mild steel or iron screws and bolts.

bro your glue trick did the trick for me!
No heat needed to dry that super glue. Next time Sprinkle baking soda on the super glue and it will harden instantly. Keep up the good work

your advice was better than all the videos i watched i stripped a bolt on the bottom rear frame and cant swap my control arms until its out😂
I drilled through mine in 10 seconds and it worked like a charm
Great video. Used the size up method and worked. Thanks!
your welcome, glad to help!
Thanks for the help and one other thing is thats you can cut it with a dremmel
Dremmel for the win
For easy to access scews, you can just use some needle nose vice grips.

@@avi.d04 my ones doesn't even get out with torx but I don't use his trick it is stupid

Persistent good job
Genius
Holy shit thanks man life saver thought I had to replace my transmission
A good tip is hit the area with a spritz of water before hand hardens super fast
Mine sucks cause I have 2 going into the frame I got it as a present 8 years ago and never needed the parts they connect off until now I'm thinking I'll just take a grinder to them
How do you do it with a countersink screw that is even with what it screws into?
dude mine is a countersink too and it's into a hinge pin holder. the worst part is I put locktide on it
FYI baking soda instantly dries super glue
Dedass the only Einstein comment here
torx bit in an allen fitting. no wonder they're stripped
Great info and video 👍👍
Just so you know...Stainlesss is alot harder than regular steel
It's actually the complete opposite
Thanks helpt me out whit my rc car
It’s like this never heard of vice grip Pliers I was like wtf when I seen the saw
Rather go the dremel route, cut a flat notch into the screw and use the flathead to remove it.
Bro you cannot grab anything. Holy moly I thought I had buttered up hands haha
Right?!
smart
Someone tell this dude it is tool steel not just steel.
1 x word "Dremmel". 👍🏿

Get a cheap drimmle
Is it possible to use a knife instead of screwdriver
Ya, I'm sure that would work!
I guess it’s cheating but I just use a screw extra set and I replace with stainless so I don’t have a problem next time.
