Yeah, I'm just saying it's not something I generally recommend.

I used to use one on my Pro2 & RS4 Racer2 without any problems, but I wouldn't tell someone here, or walking out of the hobbyshop to use one unless they know exactly what they are doing, which I'm sure you did.

From my time working in a hobby shop, I've seen quite a few kids using dad's electric screwdriver and stripping the heads, the threads, or the plastic.
