Well I put up a poll about Punk RC dig units.......Now lets see who the dual ESC drivers are.......I just build my Berg this way and love it! Running a six channel radio with lots of options on how I crawl when the goin gets tough.

Dual FX-R's with 4PK.......I swear I drive better with this set up. The 4PK feels smoother than my DX3R and the ability to vary rear wheel speed is nice. You don't have to use it often, but when you do, it is usually a huge help.

Dual FXRs controlled with a 4PK, HR axles. I am not sure if I take full advantage of the setup, but you can set up the mix to climb without stall.

2 Mamba Max, DX-6, couldn't imagine doing it any other way.

oldhippie · 06-24-2009, 08:40 AM

Dual fxrs/3pk/kk 4.0 zero/45t/3s/rovers. Maybe not as good as a 4pk/stick but way better than my shafty and more rig than my driving ability.

SACCO · 06-24-2009, 08:48 AM

single mamba. I see peeps running duals having to think too much.

Agree. Single Sidewinder, Punkrc Dig switch, and plenty of brain power left to think while i'm cawling !

bigflex · 06-24-2009, 09:16 AM

single FXR! I don't wanna pay 500 for a radio and refuse to go stick. My punk dig and 1 FXR works just fine.

TURBOFEST · 06-24-2009, 09:25 AM

Dual FXR / DX6i

It's the only way to truly get everything you can get out of a MOA rig.

The people who look like they are thinking to much just need some more stick time ;)

Maybe so. We had 3 guys that I know running duals at our MO crawloff last week. I saw 2 of em for sure have probs with their duals.

Ditoo. I had problems last week but I had not reset my trims so the front ESC wasn't kicking into reverse properly.

Used to run a dx7 for dual ESCs, but the 4pk is much nicer to use. For a super with dual steering I would probably go back to a stick radio.

Only in yhe xtm use a singl in the bergs

I was one at that comp running duals that had a problem. I thought at first it was a problem but it ended up bieng more of a finger in the wrong spot. My pinky finger somehow found my 3rd channel trim button sending my rear motor to 80% throttle shooting me off a ledge costing enough time to dnf on that course. That in turn cost me first place at that comp. Lost by 2 points with a dnf on one course.

Looking back at it i had no reason to have it bound to a button still and was just a programing error. It has since been moved and i am still loving the dual esc setup.

I like the advantage of being able to adjust you drag break independently also. I can fine tune my rear to have exactly how much roll I want. That is another advbtage of the FXR setup, they have MUH BETTER drag brake than the CC stuff.

I have riven the single ESC setups since I switched and wouldn't consider it again. Control over the rear motor is key. I really don't even have to think about what I want to do.

Yeah, between driving my super and my Berg with the DX6...its like second nature now. I'll say it again...it's all about seat time!

dpdsurf · 06-24-2009, 04:36 PM

I run a single FX-R with dig switches and a DX3R. If I could swallow the $600 pill to upgrade to a 4PK and extra FX-R I would in heart beat. However, I don't know if it would be the difference between winning and losing in comps for me. I just like as many bells and whistles as possible.

cato · 06-24-2009, 04:43 PM

Like several others...."I" don't have enough active brain cells to run a 4pk and two esc's
