Real working Scale winches for $30.00

[outcastrc]

Yup Stephan's do go for that $ and they work great(don't have 1 but couple guys here do) the only thing i don't like about the copies is they only can lift 2.2lbs so more for looks than real function. my 0.02

There's already been tests of 3racing winches, the best number yet I have seen was stalling out at 9lb 7oz. Not the 2.2lb that everyone was guessing at from the video...

Yo, Outcastrc! It's good to see you around these parts:tmb I have no real use for these, but I gotta admit it's tempting to get a few sets for my projects. Nothing finishes off a truck quite like a winch.

Haven't been on the site much in awhile. Too little time anymore for anything it seems...

here it is lifting a CR-01 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1MWOIk0bQ4

you know I'm going to do this with a bruiser before I put the truck on the trails

Its unbelievable that those little winches can lift so much weight. Awesome!

Doesn't the controller have a push button on it? you should be able to manually "play" with it...

 

[Electrohacker]

yeah but I dont have any batteries, I might have to go get a DC adaptor

 

[Electrohacker]

they dont like 7.5 volts... lol

but the controller is resilient, I got it working under 6V

the line isnt tied in its only held by its own wraps.

I just lifted my lunch cooler which had 3 cokes in it. it weighs 4 lbs.

could smell the motor being stressed, but it still ran and runs afterward, so I say it was a success

How is it that you got yours already and I ordered mine a day before I posted the thread?

My 2 arrived a few minutes ago and I ordered on the 27th. I'm in Canada.

These things are 10x more impressive in person!!! :tmb

uhhh, the post man likes me?

 

[team3six]

That makes no sence at all? I live in Montana and they were shipping from Cali! RRP screwed me...:spaz

 

[outcastrc]

I think you'll find most of us getting them ordered from Hong Kong. RPP had to order from there just like the rest of us. So he'd be a week behind with his customers.

 

[outcastrc]

I quickly took off my old bumper with farelead and hogged out the space I needed to sit the winch in. Now that I know what I need to do I can make a new bumper to fit it better.

 

[team3six]

Very cool, does it come with the decals or no?

 

[Electrohacker]

no decals, and I ordered through RPP, not hong kong. unless he sent direct from the distributor

 

[outcastrc]

Nope. Going to have to get some vynil and laser print some.

 

[Electrohacker]

yeah print up a ton and sell us all some for like $9.99999999999 and make a fortune off the fractions of a cent.

man, I'm going stir crazy waiting for 5pm...
