What is it and why do I want it? When do you guys use it the most in your rigs? Front dig vs rear dig? 3 position dig vs 2 position? Inquiring minds (building a clod based crawler/basher) want to know.

Yes, you can freewheel but thats a lil trick that I will take on my grave.I can't tell you everything I knowChip what about freewheel, does it not exist with a berg type rig?
For this, you have to have a three position third channel. This is for 2WD with freewheel, 2WD with dig, and 4WD. The Nomadio and DX3R systems have three position third channels, and you can very easily mod a TQ3 with the correct switch.
-brushless is not the answer for everything a good handwound motor will be fine btw 35 to 45 turn. Belive me I love brushless speed demons.I now understand the function of the rear dig but what would be the situation where a front dig is required? What are the drawbacks of running dual brushless motors/escs since running a single esc with two brushed motors seems to be more common? As Lessen pointed out, I should be able to mix the channels and lockout the esc powering the rear axle with my 3PK.
Yes you are correct, a radio such as a MX3,DX 3.0 or STOCK TQ3 only has a 2 position 3 channel. Guys you WILL need to be able to adjust the E.P.A or you will fry your dig servo.maybe I'm confused about this "3 position" 3rd channel. Is it a sequential 2 directional switch in which there is a "left", "center", and "right"? Meaning you have to pass through "center" if you're going from "left" to "right"
After studying the diagram I think I understand the concept of how the rear gets locked. The switch essentially shorts the motor causing it to lock up the axle. It's all starting to become clear now.

Yeah if you can set the 3PK to have a switch or dial and switch to left, right,and center, as well as adjust the endpoints of each, then it should work.
