For this video, I show you how to install a Reefs 99 Micro Servo into the new Capra 4WS by Axial to enable the DIG feature!
The Capra 4WS edition is an incredibly capable rig right out of the box-but adding the DIG feature by installing a Reefs Micro Servo gives you that much more of an edge in competitions. If you're interested in enabling DIG in your new Capra 4WS edition, but you don't know exactly how to do it, keep watching to find out!

Video is awesome man. I have a 4th Capra with a winch on a front bumper and I wanna run dig. Got the reefs coming along with a dxc 5 pro to operate all my goodies perfectly

Very nice!! That setup is going to be fantastic for you-I'm excited to hear how it all comes together! But I've always thought that two winches on a Capra would be rad-you may have just inspired me to do something similar... Cheers! 🤘🏼🤙🏼🍻🍻

Good video Bro. I used the Savox SH-0255MG servo from amazon. Better price than the Reefs and a lot better quality than the POS Spektrum servo Axial recommends. The Dig engages/disengages perfectly without the need to reverse the truck. Subbed✌

Total nubie here. Based on reviews, I have a Capra on the way. While my skills may not warrant it, would like to have all options functioning. Your video made it seem simple. Thanks. Your efforts earned a sub

U said to just take out the capacitor for the dig servo, but didn’t say anything about it needing to be plugged back into another channel, or if it can just be ditched entirely. Which one is it/did u do?

@sreissing 11 ай бұрын

Great video! So, the “neutral” dig mode allows the rear wheels to spin freely and essentially making the Capra front wheel drive only?

@highnoonhobby 11 ай бұрын

Much appreciated!! And that's correct-neutral dig is essentially just the space between DIG being locked in and out, giving the rear wheels the ability to free-spin. 🤘🏼

What was this servo horn. I'm in canada and so far my only options are the reefs micro horns

@highnoonhobby 6 ай бұрын

This was actually just a random servo horn from the hobby shop, but I'll see if I can find a link!

@alanaucote3259 Жыл бұрын

Hi, I’ve just watched your video on dig setup on the Capra. One question, removing the capacitor to free another channel, will this cause any damage now or in the future? Great vids by the way 👍

Hi there, great question! Removing that capacitor will not cause any issues, now or in the future. Much appreciated, thank you!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

I have a question if you know, will the dig unit work/mount on another axial transmission?

@highnoonhobby 7 ай бұрын

It will only work on this transmission from Axial!

I’m planning on installing a brushless system when I install my dig servo what transmitter would you recommend

@highnoonhobby Жыл бұрын

Oh nice! What brushless system are you thinking about going with? The new Hobbywing fusion prices are enticing 🧐 but I use both Flysky and Spekrum and love them both, but I'd go Flysky GT5 for the value and easy ability to run rear steer on a potentiometer.

Where did you get the custom body panels or did you make them yourself?

@highnoonhobby Жыл бұрын

These are actually just the stock body panels with a gold vinyl wrap on top!

@davidmedley5970 Жыл бұрын

Did you install that with the factory controller? I bought a Flysky and had to order a ESC to pair with it. What is that capacitor for that is factory installed?

@highnoonhobby Жыл бұрын

I actually swapped over to the Spektrum Rugged and have since swapped over to the flysky GT5 for easier control of the rear wheels! And not sure on the capacitor-it was from the factory but I have no clue what it was doing; maybe storing a little extra punch for the steering servos if they demand more power in a bind?

Do you have to remove the spacer in the transmission for dig to function or is it just to get that spacer for the eyelet

@highnoonhobby 2 жыл бұрын

You do have to remove that spacer from inside the trans to enable dig functionality. Great question, thank you!

So if using a Flysky controller do you have to replace the esc? Or just bind it to it?

@highnoonhobby 2 жыл бұрын

As far as I can tell, you'll have to get a different ESC and an RX that works with your FlySky. Someone could come along and correct me, but that's what I could figure with a bit of research online and around the hobby shop.

@timhunter1678 2 жыл бұрын

If you buy a Flysky it comes with a 6ch receiver but you'll need a new ESC. I used the Hobbywing 1080 and it works great.
