They can be replaced. To get them out, you can use a Dremel device with a thin saw part to make a cut on the top of the screw head. Then you can use a flat head screw driver(the minus shaped head, not the plus) to unscrew it. You can get replacement screws from places like Tower Hobbies. I ordered two packs of phillips screws that hold the transmission to the chassis because they would pretty much strip every time I took them out or put them on.

get good tools thats the key. I use snap on tools and don't strip anything. the dremel is the best bet for you like Ewanni said.

Which I still have to get. I think they're $60 at Home Depot, Dremel brand.

Is Snap On a brand of hand held tools or something different? I heard the name before but I'm not familiar with those.

Snap on are very good hand tools. Im not sure if they make any power tools or not. I know there wrenches and stuff are in the top 3 best brands to buy.

Snap on tools on for trades people like auto mechanics, autobody and air craft mechanics. You can buy on line or if you see a big truck with snap on on the side you can buy from him. they do make power tools but are very overpriced but there air tools are some of the best.
