Anyone have a spare MA5 screw?

[RC_Hobbyist]

I have hit a minor snag in building my Hornet Evo.
I am missing a MA5 (3x15mm tapping screw for the next part of the build. I have looked in the parts box & looked all over the table, but cannot find it.

I was wondering if anyone has an extra one they can send me or know of any online stores in the US which carries tamiya spare parts.
Tamiya USA's website has them,. but the shopping cart is closed until Jan. 13th for inventory.

How frustrating.   I suspect you can find a match in a kit like this...

Problem solved.
Went to a local hobby shop and the owner happened to have one that he kindly gave to me.

Glad to hear the LHS got you going. That's why it's too bad they are dwindling. While I would prefer to use Tamiya branded screws you could use any cheapo 3mm self tapping screw to get by.

Heck one screw bag from an orv kit would cover most things for a long time.  I can't tell if my pile of spares are from the last kit I built or 1983

True.
The hobby shop I went to is closing their physical location and going online.
