3x rouned hexs already........20181020_163231 by evssv, on Flickr

when you were removing these screws were you using an electric drill?

Serously. fiddlestick hex's I have decided to swap all mine for normal screws. What is the advantage of hex's in this kind of project. None at all. They easily get filled with old mud thats as hard as concrete, they break very easily no matter what they are made from. Can someone explain to me why they are being used almost religiously in RC?
