Default Brake only with the rear axle

Hello, I have a modified XR10, how can I brake only with the rear axle? What radio do I need to do it?
Thanks in advance
Sorry for my bad English

Your English is perfectly clear. If I’m not mistaken, the XR10 is a motor-on-axle setup. I don’t have an MOA rig, so things are a bit different. What you’re looking for is a dig unit, and it looks like there are some electronic options for MOA rigs. You’d need an available channel on your receiver and transmitter to operate it. Just a quick search for MOA dig unit turns up some results.

Is your ESC a single ESC (1 ESC controlling 2 motors) or a dual ESC (2 ESCs controlling 2 motors)?

If its a single ESC you can use a dig switch. RC4WD makes one (Rocker Dig II), I cant really think of any others.

If you have a dual ESC you can use radio mixing to achieve dig. This is the best method. You will want a radio that can do mixing. I know most Spektrum radios can do this but most radios (that arent cheap RTR radios) should have mixing too, just check the manual before buying.

Thanks Humboldt; I hadn’t considered the dual esc mixing option.

How strange, I have not received notification of your help.
First thanks for your interest, if I have 2 motors and two ESCs, in the end I made the decision to use my classic Taranis aircraft radio, and I solved it.
