i hear the DNA is a great dig, but i run the hot racing dig with great results! it works fairly smooth if you grease it good and run about a 60+ oz. servo for it

I have used 2 dna digs and they are very nice, one of them sticks a tiny bit, but the other one is butter smooth.

I really like my DNA but I am starting to look at the Eritex. The DNA needs alot less modification that others and the Eritex dig just came out but looks very promising

| The digs shipping now have them. There is also a thread in the A10 section showing assembly and setup. Since there are only 6 major parts, I got mine together in about 2 minutes, it's pretty easy.

That eritex DIG looks like a very nice compact unit. Anybody familiar with it and the DNA. Can you give us a list of pros and cons for each? Thanks |

This thread More Dig Questions but with research... has a great pros and cons list of most of the digs offered for the axial. The only one missing form that list is the Vanquish Hurtz dig Vanquish Products Hurtz Shifter Dig, which is because it wasn't out yet. |

The VP dig will work in an AX10, and should fit in any other chassis too. It is an excellent unit. Here is a pic of mine in a DNA SSS chassis: So far, I have not had any problems with it, and have subjected it to many full throttle shifts, works every time. I fabricated a mount for use with a mini servo, and so far that servo is also working the dig well: The VP dig thread: Vanquish Products Hurtz Shifter Dig |
