the traxxas tq radio is only a 2 position 3rd channel, so you will only get 4wd and dig, you wont have the neutral option. you can however mod the older tq radios to get 3 position 3rd channel, however im not sure if the new 2.4 unit is the same mod.

the 3 pos isnt that big a deal... you'd be fine w/ a 2pos...

| 1. If you are climbing and your front tires are trying to get a grip, but your back tires are trying to flip you over you'd unlock the rear and let the front drag the truck up until the rear tires got to a point that they wouldn't turn you over; with the rear locked you'd just sit there most of the time. 2. Allows you to unload the drive train without locking up the rear. |
