wtf

i think maybe its want to find...

[mave]

not sure if it is the Gforece version. But the one that I bought has carbon fibre extension to hold the neckstrap. Please see picture.

Also, I think I owe you an answer to a question you ask many moons ago.
The tools that remove a screw with a strip head is called a impact driver. Here is how it looks.

The tools that remove a screw with a strip head is called a impact driver. Here is how it looks.

I do not know what the original question was, but looking at the 2 posted pictures, are you saying to use the impact drive on the screw that looks like the hex slot is worn out on the TX? Well, to use impact drive, you have to hammer REAL Hard on the drive to even have a hope of getting the screw to start turning, and even then, the screw needs to have some semblence of a hex slot still available. By the time you have finished hamnmering the drive, the TX will be in many pieces, and removing the screw will be the least of your worries.

If you are thinking of removing a mushroom head philips screw that has the hex slot completely rounded off, like what I think the first picture seem to show, then a simple way is to carefully cut a slot right across the head of the screw then use a plain screwdriver to turn the screw. Don't cut too far down the head or the head will just break off when you turn it.

A tool we use in aircraft maintenance to remove screws with rounded off slots, a very frequent occurrence, especially with those idiotic offset slotted screws used by a certain European aircraft manufacturer , is called "Easy Out" (actually a misnomer, cos it's hardly ever easy to remove the screw with this tool!)

To see what the tool looks like go here: http://www.toolprice.com/c=FVefJUYqE...sy+out&x=0&y=0

The tool comes in various sizes to suit various sizes of screws and bolts to remove. It looks a bit like a tapered 4 sided rod which has been twisted in the "Opposite" direction to a normal screw thread. To use it, first you drill a small hole through the center of the screw you want to remove. Then you insert an "easy out" of the appropriate size such that the tip of the tool fits in the drilled hole. Now you turn the tool in the "unscrewing" direction. Since the tool is twisted in the reverse to normal direction, the tool wants to screw itself into the stuck bolt, and, due to its tapered shape, jams itself tighter and tighter in the hole drilled in that bolt. At the same time, the tool will try to twist the stuck bolt out.

That is the theory, practice is much harder, and not always successful, especially when removing smaller screws or bolts.

Good Luck!

nah, the Tx is to show the neck strap balancer that CKS was looking for in this thread.
The first pic shows a good button head Hex screw.

the impact driver is used in my heavy industry.
But I guess if we can moderate the impact, we can use it on lighter application.
Cheers!
