Just found one at helidirect. It's written 7mm OD but I've been told by a heli pilot that it is indeed 7.9mm... which is still good for me. at 3.99$ each, both are on their way.
Lucky you got them. First time, I also didn't know the thin nut drivers are required, That time, I used long nose flyer to hold one side and 5mm normal nut diver to untighten the other side using friction. However, I realised that it is quite easily find in Singapore as Esky tools are common in Singapore.
Yeah, I had help from some flyer online. those forum community are great! I nealy always get an answer from an online member wayyyy before I get support from local hobby shops
For an example, I've sent an email to my LHS on monday (after the crash) and I'm still short of an answer... come on... it's an easy question : do you have a 5.5mm nut driver with an OD of max 8mm. You take a look at the inventory, get yourself a caliper and say yes or no...
The only guy around here that is known to carry esky is out of town for 2 weeks...
Check out your local Nitro RC Car dealer. Most times their wheel nuts are 5.5mm, and the socket head has to fit inside the lip of the wheel hub, so O.D. is usually quite small.
