Dig is used essentially to allow the crawler to pivot around its rear tires. Dig can have different positions - the first is 4wd, the 2nd is locked rear driveshafts, and sometimes there might be FWD. When locking the rear driveshafts there is front wheel drive and the steering from the front. This results in a much tighter turning radius which can be helpful for getting around obstacles. The FWD/open rear driveshafts also yields a tighter turning radius, but isn't as useful for avoiding obstacles.
Shaun, you gonna bring it by Hobby People soon? I'm working tomorrow (Saturday) and will have my crawler with me... Marvin might have his with him as well.
