i got the CKRC i have not got to run itt much. i will say there are some little thing here and there but if you spend some time with it you will be happy. but i went with it because it is the only one that got smart and put it on the right so you can get the motor in front.

I have now had both home made and F/T digs. I think I liked my home made one the best. The F/T worked great at my comp this weekend, but on my home made dig, the servo was lower than you can make happen with any of the other two. I would say that if you like tinkering, you would eventually be satisfied with the F/T. |

go with the dna-great product, great customer service if you need it. havent tried the ckrc dig, but read about issues and from my personal experience dna cust. serv is better. spend the extra $30. im sure you can buy it direct from dna-just email or pm them. |

does the dna dig lock up the rear tires so they don't spin when your digging?
