Is it just me or does anyone else have a problem with the tiny 1.4mm screws provided to fasten the front and rear wings? I do not understand how fastening of these can be so difficult as I now have four different PH00 screwdrivers and none of them seem to do the job. I even ordered the spare hex-shaped kit from RC-Schrauben only to find out the tiniest screws were not included in this kit! So I am stuck with the original screws headache. Any suggestions?

Screws that small sometimes have trouble "locking" on to the screwhole. You could try filling the hole with some very tiny slivers of plastic scrap. It's how I did it and it worked out pretty well so far.
