RC-Cox have introduced three new screw sets for the Destiny RX-10S touring car kit. First up is a 90-piece set of 64-grade titanium and black anodised 7075 aluminium fasteners. The durable titanium screws are mainly used in the lower parts of the chassis while the black alloy fasteners are used for the upper parts of the car. Also new is a 89-piece all-aluminium black screw kit for even more weight saving compared to the mixed titanium and alloy one while the third set, containing 90 gold-plated steel screw, is for looks only as it does not give any weight savings.
