Default Stock radio dig switch

Hey, i was just wonderring if there was any way to make the stock radio able to controll a dig system. I was thinking mabey if you set ch 3 to 100% and press the steer program button it might work, i tried this by just putting my servo on ch 3 and looking at it. It changes direction of which way it's going 100% with the crab walk and the front rear steer, crab goes left and the other goes right, but then you have that useless rear only one that you would have to press threw . Only issue i see with it is that when you steer it still moves the servo so it might fall off the switch or enable the motor again. I was thinking mabey there's a wire in the radio behind the steering wheel that's just for the rear that you might be able to just cut and tuck back. Just let me know what you think.

I tried it and it worked . All you have to do is beep till your in rear steer only and use a quick bump to the left or right depending where your switch is . And you also have to use a bushbutton switch that needs to be disconnected by pushing it again. So it goes like this .... beep beep beep turn beep(back to front steer) use dig , beep beep beep turn (disengage) beep drive normal . Get tired of it, buy a modded tq3 off of a member in the classifieds for $25.00 and have fun.
