|  Scale T-case WITH DIG
SO i have been wanting a scale transfer case with a dig for awhile, Cad 2 Chrome is the only place that has a really cool shiftable t-case but it was designed to shift from 4WD to 2WD. After looking it over i helped Chuck @ Cad 2 Chrome convert this to have a dig function instead of 2WD. NOTE it can be purchsed as a 2wd/4wd or 4wd/dig I have been testing it for a few weeks now and it is indestructable, I have shifted it into dig at full throttle with a 18.5 brushless motor. (Not that anyone would need to do that) but i really wanted to make sure how strong it will be. This is still the prototype and these should be in production very soon. They will be $150 when ready   The final case design will vary slightly from what you see here.  Last edited by 1badxj; 06-04-2011 at 10:41 AM. |

Very nice looking unit  This well be a hot item for sure, Being a t-case and having dig is bad ass. Would be sweet to see a vid of it in action Is the servo going to have a mount on the tranny or on the chassis?

SO far the servo mount in on the chassis, If it is ontop of the t-case i limits your room for interior on the body. Hope to have a vid real soon, have some technical issues with vid equipment | |

The 1:1 scale rigs have Dig options in comps, The Atlas 2 from advance adaptors is a highly used t-case with dig function , Anyway all the rules i read say Class 3 can have dig I can't understand why a person would want a t-case that shifted from 4WD to 2WD in a toy R/C rig, The point of having it in a real 1:1 scale rig is so you can hit the paved roads and cruise 60 + MPH. When will you be doing this in a 1/10 scale rig comp? |

So, is it going to be a DIG/2wd/4wd transfer case or just a DIG transfer case? Kind of confused reading through this thread. | |

It is 4WD and shifts into dig , no 2WD option, you will just have to pretend its in 2wd when you want.  | |

I'd rather have a 2/4wd transfer case sticktly for scale reasons. I am sure someone would want a dig on a scaler even though it's not allowed in all but mod.

THey will be in production very soon , I am done bash testing the proto and it work great now even with brushless. On flat concrete its like having a E-brake pulled @ 50mph I don't really want it for comp purposes, just for a more scale realistic rig, but on the topic of comps: Alot of 1:1 rigs i run with around here have the Atlas 2 t-case (which this scale t-case is suppost to represent) and they are street rigs also not class 3 rigs or buggies. So i don't understand why a class 2 rig can't have a dig option? Even the scale rules read as such; Class-2 "Trail" *discription - A stock vehicle that has been MODIFIED to become a CAPABLE trail rated rig & is not neccessarily street legal Anyway, Cad To Chrome is going to be making a batch of these and would like to know how many of you would be interested in one. They are going to be $150 shipped in the Cont US. You can PM CadtoChrome here or go the there web site. SOrry i haven't been able to get a video of it , having alot of tech errors. | |
