The Ultimate Wrenching Tool For RC Junkies: The DeWalt DCF680 Gyroscopic Screwdriver
Рет қаралды 89,429
Күн бұрынIt's no secret that I wrench... A LOT! In the past year especially, my business constructing large multirotors has allowed me the pleasure of building dozens of large drones, each comprised of a few hundred bolts each. This leads to lots and lots of wrench turning.
I've always been one to prefer a good ole fashioned hex driver hand tool, as I can control the speed quite easily, feel increased resistance to prevent cross-threading, and after 15 years of wrenching, let's just say my hand torque is well dialed in to knowing how tight is appropriate but won't break a bolt. It does take a bit longer but has always done the job for me.
So... when I came across this tool recently, I was so impressed that I had to share! I have been using this on all of my builds in the last few months and it is really holding up nicely and increasing my workflow.
Here is a completely unbiased review of the DeWalt DCF680 Cordless Screwdriver. Hope this can help you with your wrenching!
BEST FEATURES:
Gyroscopic enabled!!
Built in clutch
Swappable Batteries (2 included with the combo!)
Bright LED on the front
Standard 1/4" Hex Receiver
Folds from straight to a right angle driver
Light weight
If you turn wrenches for your hobby or job, I highly recommend this! Would be perfect for RC helicopters, drones, cars, boats - you name it.
I bought it here on Amazon:

In addition, these bits from MIP are great! It's a set of 1.5mm, 2.0mm and 2,5mm hex wrenches (perfect for metric smaller screws):

I started using this because I was a basic printer technician and this was great for that. Light weight, powerful enough for the small screws I needed to replace sensitive parts and greatly increased my repair time since some replacements required so many screws and doing it by hand was taking forever. Plus it’s good enough for doing other basic needs around the house.

Finally a review I can use, All the other video's are of people who actually sell this machine.. and only screw in a screw in a piece of random wood..? Thank you very much for taking the time and showing it (Also my purposed use is pretty much the same as yours only more for small assembly runs).

There's nothing more annoying than having to hand-screw something together kzfaq.infoUgkx1McjgiqTNcTjrhvRvJWcrk5bzTeQW-Wn except for the pain in your wrist that is. This addition to my tool kit is great and I can get a lot done without all the pain and annoyance. The battery last's a long time and I have yet to run out of power when doing a small project (granted I am saying small project because I'm no construction worker). The only thing that I wish it had was an LED or pair of LEDs to indicate when it was charging and whether or not the charge was complete (or full).

I picked up one of these and really like the operation of the tool but the whole end assembly of mine wobbles side to side not just like the slider chuck piece but the whole shaft and everything is that normal for these to have some side to side play?

Great review, just got one today for working on rc cars. What's a good clutch setting for small screws into plastic? (Rollers and stuff) wondering if lowest still has enough power to strip the plastic? I think they really should have listed the torque settings. Anyway good review and seems like a great must have tool for anyone in the hobby.
@mcbrite 3 ай бұрын
You just feel the torque setting... I start low and just increase it until it's JUST enough to do the job... For small screws in plastic I'd literally start at 1 and take it from there...
@gunit3333 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your review! Bought this screwdriver and MIP bits based on your recommendations, what level do you set your clutch on to make sure you don’t strip any screws?
@BobbyWatts 3 жыл бұрын
Awesome! Depending on the bolt head size and the size of the actual screw, I use anywhere from 9 to 15

So it doesn't have a drill setting or "no clutch" option? Can you manually turn screws when you let off the button?
@BobbyWatts 4 жыл бұрын
It has a MAX setting which does not have a clutch, it just gives everything that it's got

So basically you press the button and that is your zero, left or right rotate from there is your speed? It is a gyro driven potentiometer?

Hello from little island of Singapore! Great quick and brief review! Would like to ask if the gyroscopic function can be turned off as I wish? Can I stop the rotation halfway by turning it the other way? When I turn it the other way, will it stop or will it start rotating the other way? Can it still operate like a normal finger-triggered driver instead of using the gyroscopic trigger? Oh and does the LED turns on with light press of trigger even before rotation begins and turns off a few seconds after rotation has stopped? Thanks in advance! 😁👍

when you are in midle position, does the tool just shake?

it "hums" but does not shake, just a humming sound.

Can this be used in a gentle way, like in other words is the trigger pull like and on/off similar to a light switch or does it respond well to trigger pull depression. So if you wanted to ease a bolt in or out.
@BobbyWatts 3 жыл бұрын
The only way to adjust speed is based on how much of an angle you rotate after depressing the button. It is extremely accurate
