Needing to by a scale winch for a full metal jacket wraith.
Any recommendations (good or bad) would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using the RC4WD Warn Winch. It's a good looking, powerful winch and can run on unregulated 3S LiPo. I had a hell of a time getting it mounted on my Wraith and ended up buying a ScalerFab bumper to get it to my liking. Also, the stock fairlead is a bit too wide which allows the line to come off the spool. You can replace it or add some plastic tubing to the side rollers.

Most winches I've seen are too weak to lift any real weight. I have trucks with servo winches. They are capable of deadlifting the entire truck and the weight of a second. 10-12lbs ish
I use Solar D772 servo's converted to be winches. I like the one I have powered by my HeyOk winch controller the best.
They can handle 8v with ease.

My warn 9.5cti winches are powered by heyok wireless controllers...huge improvement in operation over the junk stock wireless controller....it will pick up my 10lb+ rig easily and hold it. I did get the crawl space fairlead with led for it though as it will tend to run off the end of the drum as stated earlier
