Went to put high speed gearing on xmaxx and rounded a screw then rounded another tryna access the other one...tried the rubber band...trying super glue now waiting for it to set as can see screwdriver hanging out in picture. Can't get to them to hack saw and remove with flat head...also don't have a star set which I no i should and are much better to remove Allen key head screws..and also no I should be using the dewslt impact to remove them...also what

Try heating the screws slightly with the tip of a soldering iron. Use lots of downward pressure. You might even try tightening them slightly to break the bond. But the best advice would be to get some torx bits and try pressing them in the sockets.

If these pics are hard for you to see, you can do a google for Traxxas X-Maxx exploded views, and be taken to the pdf files on traxxas.com
