RC10 screws in stainless steel

Found a great supplier for the aircraft-spec countersunk 8-32 screws on original rc10s. They are availabe in small quantities in a variety of aircraft-grade materials.

beware of being tempted to buy ordinary 8-32 screws like those used on current Losi cars since the countersink angle is different and the screws will protrude. (I learned this the hard way...)

Basically, most countersink screws in the American standard have a countersink angle of 82 degrees. this includes the currently avail Losi items.

Screws used in the aircraft industry, however, have a 100 degree countersink. The RC10 chassis is aircraft spec.

For a full set, you will need (all 8-32):
16x 1/2 inch (one more if you still use the front bodymount)
1x 1/4 inch
2x 3/4 inch (the originals are actually 7/8 but 3/4 is fine if you've got a ballraced setup)

Cheers,
Ty
