Default DNA Dig engagement

How many rotations should the driveshaft spin before the dig engages?

The dig seems to engage ok, and is locked up good, but seems to take a while before it actually locks up.


any ideas?

There is 4 engagment points.Should lock in at a 1/4 turn.Make real sure your end points are set right,the linkage isn't flexing,taking up movement and nothing is binding,linkage not stright,locking collar set to close to the case or drive shaft not moving freely.

Mine seems to lock with only about 1/4 of a turn. Never had a problem with it locking. Make sure that your driveshaft is not binding as it slide's back & you may want to use a male end on the dig side so the edges will not catch on anything.

Was endpoint... was just a shy to lax on it I guess, intrepid about burning up another servo
