I'm looking to replace the flat head screws on the bottom of my B4.1 with phillips head flat heads. Anyone know what degree the flat heads are (82 or 100)?

Stupid question, but do you have to buy special drill bits to countersink for Associated (or any) screws? If so, what's the source? My countersinking sucks.

If you are using a CNC router then the answer is yes ( kinda ) because it drills and then countersinks with the same bit. If you are doing it by hand, then no- all you have to do is drill the correct size hole and countersink it with the correct degree bit ( to get the head to fit flush)

So I was looking around at making a custom order for a screw set. I remember a while back asking about screws in another thread because they werent fitting properly. well I finally figured it out. Older sets had a 100 degree flat head vs an 80...

If it's an aluminum 8-32 screw in an rc application it's almost always 100 degree unless it's metric , then it's 90. If it is steel there is a good likelihood it's 82 degree. You won't find 100 degree in black oxide easily, sometimes in stainless....

I finally got a 10T S&K AIRS body after years of searching. It's not perfect and is missing the AIRS duct, but at least I found one. :D

Hello all,
It seems to be generally agreed that the long-arm Rc10 does best with 25 degrees of caster. Unfortunately, the 25 degree caster blocks are discontinued and hard to find. There's currrently one set on ebay, $30 shipped. Ouch.
What's the...

Last post

Nobody?
Maybe I'll just order the 30d blocks and see how they work for me.
Edit: Is there any way to get proper track with b4 casters and JC Racing wheels, or will I need new wheels?
I may just go ahead and try the Custom Works caster blocks....
