Default Tools needed for assembling new model....

I just placed an order for the HPI RS4 Super Nitro. What tools will I be needing when I install this kit? Thanks

Is it RTR? If it is not much. Your going to need a screwdriver if its not I think thats about it since the allen wrenches should come with it.

if those allen wrenches do come with your kit do yourself a favor and through them out and go spend $10 on a decent set from home depot.
those crappy ones they give you are just that crap.
ive broken a few trying to remove some heat sink screws and once i bought a new set (husky brand) i havent had a problem.

dont make a job harder than not the right stuff.

They aren' bad for what you need to use them for, although they won't do good things like taking off engine screws, but they work ok.

Actually the opposite happened to me when taking off the heatsink screws, the screws broke and not the wrech (it was close to it though).
