Default Vanquish Products Hurtz Shifter Dig

We are proud to release the Vanquish Products Hurtz Shifter Dig Unit for the Axial AX-10. This dig unit was designed to be a heavy duty unit for demanding pro drivers. the unit features many details that eliminate known problems for failure. ALL drive dogs are 440C stainless steel including stationary dogs mounted to the housing. Sliding mechanisms will not show galling, so only a small amount lubrication is needed. the dig has 6 points of engagement per revolution. The drive shaft output is stationary and does not slide in and out of the housing. Unit weighs in at 80 grams or .180 lbs. servo mount is located on the dig housing so most servo flex is eliminated. the Hurtz Shifter lever action give a mechanical advantage for the servo of 2.5 to 1 ratio. allowing a standard servo to man handle the shifting demands needed in competition crawling. Production units are being packaged now and all orders will ship this Friday July 3RD, and from preordered hobby stores. Price comes in at $83.99.. cheers

Thomas

Dustin gave us a demo on Sunday. He held down his tires and applied torque till the front of his rig lifted of the ground about 45 degrees then engaged dig. No problem!!!! Great job guys.

Is there any chance this dig would truly work properly with a mini servo with between 30 - 50 ounces of torque? I want to replace my DNA dig with something liter, more compact and something that can truly use a micro or mini servo. I am trying to lower my center of gravity and currently must use a Hitec 645MG with the DNA dig.

Also, has anyone used one of these with Traxxas Maxx shafts yet? Is there enough material on the output to drill through for the cross pin used on the Maxx yoke? What material is the output shaft made of? Can it be drilled through?

I got my hands on one of these units during the Axial West Coast Championships this weekend. I can't wait to get it installed. Tons of awesome features in a super compact dig unit.

As for the dig servo size. I am currently using my old stock dx3.0 servo that came in the box from 5 years ago. It should be a z270 spektrum servo. Doing a google search it comes in at 43 oz/in @ 4.8V, 49 oz/in @ 6V. We did not want to do any testing with some over powered servo. We did our best to make a dig that can work with out destroying the servo in smaller oz sizes. And also keep the total price with out having to buy 100 dollar servos.

We are ordering some maxx shafts, to check into accomadating these also, or maybe as a option, since this package is already created.
