HobbyPark 500pcs Universal RC Screw Kit Screws Assortment Set

In this review the HobbyPark 500pcs Universal RC Screw Kit is evaluated for hobbyists who work on 1/8 to 1/16 scale RC cars, trucks and crawlers; the bottom line is that this is a practical, budget-friendly spare hardware set that keeps a wide variety of small fasteners organized and ready for repairs. The kit's single biggest selling point is the sheer variety and storage box: with 500 pieces including M3 and M4 screws, washers, lock nuts and clips, it removes the most common downtime problem of missing small parts when rebuilding or maintaining RC vehicles.

Key Features

• 500pcs assortment: A large selection of screws and small parts reduces the need to order individual fasteners when doing routine maintenance or repairs.
• Multiple screw types: Includes M3 and M4 flat head and round head screws with hex drive so common mounting and body applications are covered.
• Accessory hardware: Comes with M3 flat washers, 3mm and 4mm lock nuts, body clips, E-clips, pins and O-circle pieces to handle suspension, body, and drivetrain fastenings.
• Transparent storage box: The compact clear box (approx 175x100x21mm) keeps pieces sorted and makes it easy to find the part you need during field repairs.
• Wide brand compatibility: The assortment is stated to fit many popular models including Traxxas, HPI, Axial, Losi and Redcat, which covers most 1/8, 1/10, 1/12 and 1/16 scale projects.

Who It's For

The kit is best for hobbyists, club racers and casual tinkerers who own multiple RC models or who regularly service a single truck or buggy; the variety minimizes trips to the hardware store and speeds up roadside fixes. Its organized box and common sizes cater well to people performing routine rebuilds, body mounting, servo installs and suspension work on scale RC vehicles.

Those who need very specific metric lengths, hardened or stainless steel specialty fasteners, or precise size matching for high-performance racing should look elsewhere, because the kit focuses on broad coverage rather than certified material grades or rare specialty sizes.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Large 500pcs count provides a useful variety for many common RC repairs and upgrades.
• Clear, compact box keeps small parts organized and accessible during field repairs.
• Includes a good mix of screws, washers, lock nuts and clips that match popular model brands.

Cons

• Some users report variation in screw sizes and perceived durability compared with premium fasteners, so it may not replace high-grade hardware for performance builds.

Our Verdict

The HobbyPark 500pcs Universal RC Screw Kit is a smart value purchase for hobbyists who want a ready supply of common fasteners and an organized way to store them. It is especially useful for owners of multiple scale RC models and for routine repairs, though those needing high-grade or precisely measured specialty screws should supplement this kit. For general maintenance and emergency fixes it represents solid utility at a reasonable price.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these screws fit my 1/10 short course truck?
Many of the included M3 and M4 screws and accessories are compatible with common 1/10 scale mounts, but check your model manual for exact lengths before replacing structural fasteners.

Is the storage box sturdy enough for transport?
The transparent box is compact and practical for organizing parts, though repeated rough handling may shuffle small quantities between compartments so consider additional padding for heavy transport.

Are these hardened or stainless steel fasteners?
The product description does not specify material grade, so if you require hardened or stainless steel parts for corrosion resistance or high-stress use, purchase those separately.
