I use a little impact driver (the kind you wind up and smack the end with a hammer) and it seems to work well. It will most likely ruin the screws, so you'll have to make a trip to the hardware store.

Needle nose vise grips. Clamp them down tight as hell on the side and turn them right off.

True dat. I used a new screwdriver on my 6 month raptor and wound up using the ghetto-faboulous vise grips as well. These screws were one of the disappointments with this quad.
