So I like the ones that are gun style . I just feel funny about buying a $100 screw gun to use on what are essentially toy cars. Well thats what my wife would say. lol. To me they are therapy which is why its so expensive .Thats what I tell my wife .lol. I'm still really liking the M12 . But that $28 Genesis is what I'll probably get . First I'm going to tinker with my Craftsman one and see if I can put a better battery in it . Seems like everything runs a 18650 battery now days .

All of the three international companies are best in power tools industry and are used worldwide. Power tools can be understood as the tools which are used for construction purposes as well as some household chores. Its a massive industry all over the world and to choose between these three huge power tool brands can be slightly difficult but we can give it a try.
First, Makita which is a Japanese company completely devoted to become the best power tool company in the world. They really offer the best products in their field by using the best materials possible and providing satisfaction to customers with their work. Makita drill has an immensive force, decent amount of power and great speed in its product with great after service benefits also such as easy availability of spare parts for the product. The products of Makita are of decent amount of money compared to the top companies.
Dewalt is another massive American power tool company which is also providing the products worldwide. The products of Dewalt are slightly high priced compared to Makita and like its competitor it is also solid with its products and can pack quite a punch with its high speed, massive power in its product and its durability.
Now comes one of the best companies in power tools Milwaukee with its massive growth in the past decade. This American company has everything going for it regarding the products which can make the work really easy to do as it is smooth to handle and work with because of its massive power, amazing speed and high durability. But compared to other top brands or with Makita and Dewalt it is really expensive which can be a huge deal for many people who use power tools for themselves.
According to me the best power drill among these three companies is without a doubt Makita as it is the best in its price and range of products in power tools and is worth spending your money on with its endurance and power.

At the time, I needed a electric driver and didn't have $100 to spend on one. Previously before the Skil driver, I had a $15 Craftsman that lasted four years before the battery wouldn't hold a charge anymore.

Agreed. I love the Makita stuff as well. With the $20 Skil driver I use, I've never over tightened a screw. You just have to be smart when you're driving a screw. I did spend the money on MIP hex drivers for the drill as well as all my hand hex drivers. To each his own.

I bought this Dewalt and its been great

I was hesitant about the motion control but its really cool once you get used to it.
I think this one is enough but I may also get a Dewalt gun style as well.

I have used this one for a couple years now and it is awesome! great clutch and the gyro is actually pretty cool and helps you control speed once you do it a few times.

If you happen to be looking for an affordable option, check out the Hyper Tough at Walmart. Amazing reviews/feedback on Facebook car forums and is definitely worth the shot at $15 at Walmart. This coupled with some MIP hex driver bits is probabaly what I will end up with

I've been running this drill for about a year now, comes with a nice carry case and 2 batteries so I never have to worry about a fresh charge or not. It has a lock to prevent the trigger from actuating while in transport and the clutch is the softest I have seen... never once stripped a plastic diff using the softest clutch setting
The trick is to drive all 4 screws within 1mm, let the threads cool for a few seconds, then finish off the last few turns with the clutch to avoid stripping threads

So I bought that Hyper Tough at Walmart for $15 and it’s not bad at all for the price! The lowest chuck setting doesn’t strip the screws on my TLR 22 4.0. And it also has a light on it, although the light only turns on once you pull the trigger and get it moving, which by then you won’t get it in screw head so it’s not as useful as the light on my Craftsman drill I have where you can pull the trigger half way just to activate the light first
But just finally watched that video about the Genesis and for $10 more I kind of wish I went with that. I like the mechanical chuck on it to lock the driver bits vs magnetic on the hyper tough. I have pulled the bit out on accident multiple times because the MIP’s are so snug in the screw heads. Otherwise the Hyper Tough has been awesome so far.

I don't use power tools regularly on RC stuff, but the small USB driver offered by Muchmore Racing and other non-RC brands may find its way into my toolbox. It is strong enough for wrenching on a buggy and you can use it to tighten yor screws by hand without switching tools, and does not take too much space.
