Just remember you get what you pay for. You skimp out you'll be working with junky stuff.

With rear steer I would be able to crab walk on rocks/ With dig I would have an amazing turn radius. I'm curious to know if dig uses up a channel on the remote, if not, I could do both rear steer and dig. If it does use up a channel I'm undecided. I'm trying to figure out which one I want to spend my money on when I get something.
Yupp.
Yupp.
Dig uses a channel. Digs are activated by a servo to lock the rear differential. You can either built this yourself or you can buy a dig unit (~$100). Not sure how much building your own will cost, never done it myself.

Axial's the way to go, but stay away from RTC and RTR. They're full of flexible plastic garbage. Buy a kit.

Crawling is probably one of the most expensive RC I have seen besides flying, just a forewarning. Nothing's cheap. New shoes will even cost you $50.

Cheers,
Kyle.
