Radio Shack tool

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,  

Has anyone seen one of these before?  I found this interesting little trinket in a parts box I purchased. I initially thought it was Radio Shack's version of the Tamiya 4 way tube spanner, but it's too large for a standard 4mm wheel nut.  Maybe it's not even RC related?

No idea what that is, I'm from the RadioShack era.  lol.   It almost looks like a servo horn, but it is definitely some sort of wrench as you noted.

Maybe you can make it into a keychain and use as conversation piece..

Hi Willy,

It would definitely make for a good keychain, I think that's where it will end up.

It's probably from one of their RCs that's a rebranded Nikko (Nikko tool set for reference)

Probably something based on the F10 chassis as two wrenches are needed simultaneously to remove the bar that holds the front suspension arms on and the bar that holds the rear gearbox on.Screenshot_20220206-161148_eBay.thumb.jpg.beed805f9b728bef31e942f2c32901f6.jpg

Thanks nowinaminute, 

That's what I've been looking for!  I do have a Radio Shack Golden Arrow, I'll bag this up and keep it with that.

Thanks again for your help!
