Servo winch!

RCCrawler.com- Your #1 source for Radio Controlled Rockcrawling! is how to make one.

Mount it on the chassis across from the steering servo (like far on the other side... thats where the mechanical speed control servo went on XC01's)

Then mount a fairlead where you want.

Since I cut the brick off, you can see where I ran the winch line right under the front bumper.



I also installed a toggle switch inline with the power wire to the servo winch so that I could disable the winch for when I don't need it. It looks like a shifter in the interior. So its double duty.

Its smaller then the 3racing and it will drag and scaler all over the place.

Wow thats expensive though.

My servo winch was $20 plus a REALLY nice (team 3 six maybe??) one piece aluminum spool plus a hook was $25 or so more.... it can lift the truck vertical.
