| "free wheel "with DIG
My 2.2 clod has, 2x55t, rooster crawler , 9 pinion front, 8 pinion rear, micdo switch and servo. With a switch i dont get "free wheel",the wheels just drag,how do you get the rear wheels to just free wheel for climbing up hills?:-( I will wire up another switch to lock wheels when i get the rears to Roll! Cheers vip. |

You can not free wheel clod you can disengage power to motor and change pinion to stock 13t - its as close to freewheel as you can get. If you connect + and - in the motor then it brakes the axle when using a dig |

If you get a Switch that doesn't ground the Rear motor out. You can play with Pinion Mesh and other things to DIG. But also will give just enough to roll a little when pulled hard on during Ledge Climbs.

Cheers run2jeepn, I guess if i stick a 9 pinion in the rear it will help. Ive got a switch disconnecting the earth on the rear motor at the moment. |

I have a switch that disrupts the power to the rear motor but it does not lock it up completely. I am using 9 tooth pins and 50 turn motors. Did I wire it wrong?

i ran two three position switches on one servo so that i would have semi free-wheel & magnetic ( motor ) dig and it worked ok but then realized i could run the semi free-wheel switch for rear dig and found it to be much more lucrative in the big scheme of things , search sorry for sayin it berg dig thread . Once you get used to it front and rear dig is ridiculously helpful , you can drag the front end one direction then push the rear end another ... |
