What hex drivers does everyone use? How do you like them? How much did you buy them for? Can you possibly have a link?

I've had a few of Integy's drivers from when they first got into business (early 90's). I couldn't afford a whole set back then. I suffered with "L" wrenches and then "el cheapo" soft hex drivers for the longest of times. I loved the Integy drivers I had so much, I broke down and got me a complete set : Integy Hex Wrench Set, Ti-Nitride (6), INTC22301 I wish I would have done that in the very beginning .

That set, that I linked, is a bit cheaper than what I paid for them. They have helped me put together many kits and maintain them through the years with no complaints here. I still use my Integy .05", 1/16", and 2.5mm hex drivers from the 90's and haven't had a problem with them yet.

I'm not a huge fan of those Ti-Nitride coated ones. They seem to break a lot easier in my experience. As far as I go for hex drivers, its machined Dynamite Reds or nothing! Lol. You will most likely never need another hex driver in your life.

Thanks collector and rusty

I concur, I also like the Dynamite hex drivers, even the less expensive rubber handle drivers work well and if they round out you can grind the tip a bit for a fresh surface. I also have a set of the Duratrax drivers with exchangeble bits and they are great too. Any hex is going to wear over time. Your best to use deep well heads on your screws, will prolong the bit life of the driver.

I bought both the metric and SAE (Evader takes 3/32" ) sets back in like 2012. Been using the same sets since and have only broken the 1.5mm once and the 0.05" three times (sucks so much that the replacement shaft is like an inch shorter than the original ). Great set though at only $40 for all six common sizes!

How about the team associated or Losi 8 in 1 kits? How durable are they? How about EDS tools or MIP?

Generally the more you spend, the better they are. The MIP sets are great from what I've heard.

Those 8 piece sets with the bits that store in the handle are nice, but I can tell you that having separate handled hex drivers is way better when you have a lot of vehicles to do maintenance on. Even just "wrenching" on one RC will require different sized hexes and switching bits/shafts is a pain IMO.

On the other side of the coin, you could "chuck" them bits/shafts up in a power screwdriver to speeds things up when disassembling and reassembling.

I have the MIP tools. Great tips, but I'm not a fan of the plastic handles. I much prefer the rubber handles on the cheap Dynamite sets, but the tips don't hold up. The better Dynamite set Collector linked uses higher quality tips. And I like the knurled aluminum handles.

Getting MIP Speed tips, thanks everyone

I just got some Wiha German steel hex drivers and they are amazing. The handles are a little small but I am going to plasti dip them. The steel is super hard. will be a good time before they are stripped out.
