Use mine all the time either on offroad cars, crawlers and on my nprc cars. Mainly use it with 7mm nut driver on wheel nut to spin tire to clean and prep tires
How is this Dewalt screwdriver and batteries holding up after 1 year? Still working good like it was when you 1st purchased it? I've seen others comment about the batteries having issues and the gyroscopic stopped working making the screwdriver useless.
Honestly it's legit been one of the best tools I've had. I still use it to this day. I race , Drift, build computers etc... I use it all the time. I've had zero issues and still have the same 2 batteries it came with. When companies sell hundreds of thousands of products there are going to be some bad duds. It's easy to see a few negative reviews when there are thousands of positives you never hear about because no one cares to write about it.. Only when they're mad when stuff breaks they want to be heard. It's understandable. But they should also be under warranty! Even when you buy on amazon you can buy the extended warranty pretty cheap and you're covered regardless and amazon is just super easy to work with so honestly it's better than factory warranty for a few bucks.
Do you have to pull up on the quick release Chuck to get the bit locked in or can you just press down on the bit once it’s in the Chuck? I bought this screwdriver last week and my bits won’t click in , I have to pull up on the Chuck to get my bits to click in correctly
There is a link in description from Amazon. I have yet to see any of these in stores. Some people have said they found them in Lowes / Home Depot ( USA ) but I personally have not.
Great demo! Do you think this will also be suitable for PC / laptop repair? I.e. undoing laptop case screws. I have tried the Bosche Go 2 and even on the lowest torque setting, it is too powerful and will strip or snap the screws.
@mr_lee Sorry for late response! I actually think it would be ok. I can put it on the lowest settings and put my finger on the end and it stops it. If I ever can get ahold of a graphics card i'll use it to build my new pc LOL. I assembled one of my race buggies with it and another brand car where the screws in plastic can strip out super easy and it had no problem with those tasks as long as the settings are set of course... Just note there are 2 different ones they sell . with adjustment and without. Hope this helps!
Because my friends had them and I've used theirs. This video is 2 yrs old and I still use it to this day all the time & it's also still the absolute best tool I've had for RC in the 35yrs I've been doing it.
It's not for everyone, especially if price is a factor. The variable speed w/ the gyroscopic feature is worth it in it's own, plus the adjustable clutch w/ extra battery worth every penny *for me*. That's comparing all the other tools I've used over the years & building kits. This is by far the most efficient tool I've ever owned. Different experiences for different people, like I said might not be for everyone.
@@Blueknight1960 Same. I've been using the $20 black and decker one for about a year now. I wish it had the adjustable torque but it still beats disassembling these cars by hand.
I have that. Definitely a game changer.
They are great! Someone at the track borrowed mine and they were all about it, ended up going & buying one lol.
GREAT review!! Thanks for helping me spend my money!! LOL!!
s I usually dont pick on these things but this audio sounds like a recording from the 1950s and its funny as hell :D
I was feeling nostalgic.

Thank you for this. I was looking for a video like this for rc car tools.
It really is a great tool. It's 100% my go to tool w/ all my RC stuff. Thanks for taking the time to share a comment.
Nice tool. Got to have it. 😎💪🏻
It Truly has been a great tool!!

You should just be able to push in and lock in place. To remove you have to lift the collar up to remove .
Thank you for sharing a great video with a great car!!! ~~~^_^
Thanks so much!
Great video, where can i get this couldnt find it on the net

@@RCWithAaron Hi Aaron, Many thanks for the reply and feedback. Very useful.
I got the craftsman one but no speed control now I feel dum🤦
If it works for you though, then it's all good!!
What happen when the gyro finally fails ?
Every tool will eventually fail.. buy a new one ? I haven't had any issues with mine. Been a few years now. If / when mine breaks I'm buying another.
How can you say its epic when its brand new and not used
Because my friends had them and I've used theirs. This video is 2 yrs old and I still use it to this day all the time & it's also still the absolute best tool I've had for RC in the 35yrs I've been doing it.
$119? Don't think so. There are cheaper options that are just as good.

@@RCWithAaron It's not that I can't afford one, I'm just not paying $119 for an electric screwdriver.
@@Blueknight1960 what do you suggest? This is a cool tool no doubt but I was expecting maybe $75 lol.
@@kez850 While the one I use isn't fancy by any means, I got it from wal-mart, $20 I think it was.

Take my money, another insanely good excuse to waste more money in rcs
good tools are never a waste of money, an investment instead. Now it's even more justified. It really is a great tool. Still my #1 all time favorite!
