| (...) Hi Tobbe The functions aren't 'digital like", I know because I too have a digger just like Jennifer's. You can move the sticks slightly and get a proportional output. I built my model to test the dual axis control mechanism I came up with that (...) (21 years ago, 25-Nov-03, to lugnet.technic)
