|  Dig?
Ok, No I know that this is probably the most NEWB question ever asked, but can any one PLEASE explain what a dig is?  I have looked all over the forums talking about them, and I have yet to figure out what it is...Oh, and plz forgive me for asking this stupid question in the first place, its just driving me nuts to see all these people talk it about them, and have no clue on what a dig is. Thanks again. |

DIG....to put it as simply as I can...front dig is when you disengage the rear axle, rear DIG is when you disengage the front. The most common is front dig, locked and free. When in a free front dig its like having front wheel drive, locked front dig is the same but the rear wheels are "locked" from turning. Doing this will make you turn very sharp. I will let you find out how and when to use it on your own.

| Dig is a special attachment that turns you rc truck into a backhoe. HAHA just messing here is a video showing what it is used for. Basically just like in real rock crawling dig is used because 4 wheel steering is outlawed. And in most comps it would be impossible to get through without it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PV-8O2UnnA |

Ok so something that was said just sparked my interest. You said you had a front and rear dig? At the same time? if so can you post a pic. I had no idea that was possible.
