Do you use Locktite (thread lock) and let it "dry"?

yes, it did happen to me. unscrew them a little , and make sure they aren't bent first. then, when you replace them, put some red locktite on them. i got a big bag of them from www.grainger.com (http://www.grainger.com) they are THE most replaced item on this heli

I second that. Only good thing about it is it forces you to do post and pre flight inspection.

Blue Locktite will do - at least it does the trick for me.
But yes, you will need "back fulls" of those soft screws - but hey - something has to give, and I do not mind that it is a 10 cents screw that needs replacement. :YeaBaby:
