MOA is a motor on axle type rig

is there a abbreviation for a driveline type vehicle. I'm looking for a new chassis for my r2/tlt sportsman. All I can find are MOA chassis.
Usually "shafty" or "shaftie" (for rigs that have drive shafts), a scaler chassis could also be used for a drive shaft type rig.
I'm sure there are lots of other terms to be used.
 
newb question. Whats a bully? I know its a brand of crawler or platform I should say. But is it a m.o.a, shafty, scale?
 
What is mixing in terms of rc radio?
It is where the TX (transmitter) combines 2 seperate channels as a ratio.
An example is 2 ESC's on a MOA, dig would be one ESC at a time, mixing (or proportional) would give a % of speed to one ESC and a different % of speed (as requested by the throttle trigger) to the 2nd ESC.
This can overdrive one end of the rig compared to the other end. Both ends/ESC's are driven, just at different rates.
 
I have a Futaba 4pl so I can channel mix. Is there another brand, besides Futaba, that you can do dual ecs channel mixing and not just steering?
 
Thanks. Its just a shame that spectrum, jr, and others don't make anything to compete with Futaba. Like I said i have a 4pl but honestly I have never cared fo the looks and feel of Futaba radios.
