I have often wondered the ability of these new "expensive" little pieces of machinery.. and in no way do I want to break mine. But I am curious.. if my 14lb RC Truck was stuck in mud.. would this winch help pull it out with actual power? Well todays test should tell me.
I am dead lifting my "Traction Hobby 1/8th Scale Cragsman JEEP" () with an RC4WD winch that I have been using for close to a year, or more. I have never really tested it's power.. and after recently adding wheel weights to my jeep - I think a test is in order.
I have strung 10' of 100lb Fishing Line to the Winch. It looks like a cable, and is certainly very strong. I think a wireless dead lift test of this truck - at full winch line extension - is an excellent test. As the winch is 1/10th scale in size, I will multiply the 10' Lift by 10.. to get 100' scale vertical climb.

(OR - you can get a Winch controller that is wired into your receiver if you have an open channel on your programmable radio (Aux 1 or Aux 2) This is the most cost effective method.
