Most of my tools are EDS, cant complain, the only time I've had a problem is post 6 pack and rushing to a deadline.

That sounds so gay!

Price depends on if your sponsored or not. The set of four wrenches ans three nut drivers from a lical sponsored guy is like $50. Not worth it tho. They dont have spring steel tips.

Wish they would bring in a couple of wreches for the 1/8th rides.

Seen pics of them and they look pretty good to have.

EDS, MIP, Hudy, Arrowmax, most other brands with spring steel will last a long time but the best for longevity, price, looks, and quality. EDS is the way to go Hudy is overpriced and tips are more likely to break and arrowmax are easier to snap too

Anyone know where I can find these other than Amain? Infernosonly is out of stock, but reasonably priced.

Maybe check with RC CHAMP. They are in Japan but I find their stuff reasonable.

token when Yuichi Kanai came to Vietnam he brought me a set with my name on them. By far the best. I had a few screws stripped using my hudy i couldnt get them. Tried with the kanai tools was like butter. Expensive yes but the tips are nice

I found the oppsite. I ran eds exceed arrowmax hudy and kyosho. By far hudy and kyosho the best with the nod to kyosho. Eds would round quiclky as did arrowmax. Exceed did a bit better but when they rounded i replaced the tips with hudy.

No tools for toy cars should be this expensive, period. Like someone else said: They better pit for me too.

IMO and I have tried or purchased alot of tool sets. Arrowmax was the worst buy far.Tips round quick and lose shape. Ive broken 4 tips in the first few weeks of use. Now this whole case of $200 + tools sit in the pile of old RC crap I no longer use. Hudy tools are nice, but you pay for it. EDS is the same IMO as Arrowmax. Best tools for me: Dyn Red handle. Ive had these for 15 years or so and have to replace a 2.0mm bit that cost $4.00 and stocked at many LHS, or my MPI drill bits....
