- Where would I use each hex driver size on my RC model? — The 1.5mm driver works with delicate servo fasteners and control linkages; 2.0mm and 2.5mm drivers handle small suspension bolts, electronics tray fasteners and servo mounting hardware; 3.0mm drivers work with mid-sized suspension components and chassis fasteners; the 4.0mm driver tackles larger suspension bolts and structural chassis fasteners, making this five-piece set comprehensively functional for complete RC vehicle maintenance.
