You can overdrive the axial ax10 - it has a front and read diff and they offer difference gear ratios. Perhaps you're thinking of dig where you can run the front/rear axle at different speeds to keep from having the back push the front too much on a very steep incline (it may offer other advantages but that's teh gist i get from dig)
your description of clamping it to the rocks makes perfect sense. best explanation I've seen yet.
Axial offers different ratios for their diffs now? I've been out of it for a while.........In that case, yes, overdrive would be beneficial, then!
The dig is only good for certain applications, whereas overdrive is constant, dig helps in tight turns (burn turns).
I'm glad to see someone actually thinking before just buying option parts willy-nilly, not knowing what they are after.
You're on the right track!
