I've had a dynamite pinion driver for 5 years or more thats had plenty of abuse & the tip is still like new, would hope & expect the quality is still as good now :)

I've been using my set of dynamite imperial nut drivers for a couple of years now. They've been great, only problem is that the shoulder on them is a little thick - means very strong, but some wheels don't have a large enough gap to fit the driver, only a problem if you have a Losi!

I keep meaning to dremel a little off as there is plenty of metal there.

I agree with Peetbee - they are strong and solid.

But the extra material makes it less accessible than say the Losi Nut drivers.

The Losi Nut drivers are made of a material that can obviously be cast thinner. I don't think the Dynamite drivers would take a lot of dremeling as that would make the supporting material thinner.

I think the difference is represented in the price. You get what you pay for.

I use the Dynamite tools, but would swap them today for the Losi ones, if they weren't so damn expensive.
But the Dynamites do a very good job. If you are on a tight budget, I'd go for them.

I have one Dynamite tool, a 0.050" allen driver. It's the only one that's not snapped off after a couple of years use. I'd buy more. HTH :)
