Default Crab or Dig?

I'm new to crawling and I'm building a clod super. I have a 3PL, and limited to 3 channels, what is more important to crawling, Dig or Crabbing?

o dont own a super but ive seen hardly anybody use car as much as dig. hell dig even helps on some crawling up and over ledges without going side to side as if there was a gate on top and if you went side to side youd hit it. dig all the way

I only do 1.9 & 2.2, but I would have to say dig (or differential throttle) is better than crab by itself.

I have a 3PM-x (3 channel) with dual ESC's & a WannAmix to run the 2 ESC's.

To be able to compete with most supers, you'll need to be able to control each motor and each servo independently.

However, if you are limited to three channels (assuming your third is a 3POS switch), I'd go with dig first...

My only experience with 4ws is on my Class 3 scaler. For that 4ws is much better than dig. On a super I would have to say dig would be preferred though.
