How Strong is the Reefs 99 Micro Servo Winch?

[@kravenkrawlhobby5438]

Dude that’s incredible, great test. Exactly what we were all wondering.

[@GrimJerr]

If your breaking shit, your expensive winch ($65 for kit) is just going to cost you more money. Impressive, but overkill and wasted money.

[@ExocagedRC]

No no no, normally I don't winch that hard or break stuff while winching, this was a test to see just how strong it is and would it fail.

[@RCKnockout]

That thing is ridiculously strong! Really impressive!

[@801rccrawlers2]

You get more pull from a full drum, like your vids

[@traildevil67]

Lets see your other winches in the tester. Reef's and DIY winches like the oem/20kg Please.

[@ExocagedRC]

I'll have to see if I still have them, I've been building for DSM's for a while now but this changes things

[@Truth_Spoken]

@@ExocagedRC DSM’s are sooo last year 😆

[@reggaejunkie8642]

I’ve got Reefs 444 smart winch in my VS4-10 Pro. It has insane power! I also have RAW500 sservo in my TRX4 and 777 sservo in my Bomber. Insanely powerful, Insanely fast and Insanely quiet! Nothing compares to Reefs products AND product support. When you call Reefs RC, 90% of the time you’ll be talking directly to Reef himself. Super cool dude

[@ExocagedRC]

Awesome yeah I chat with him almost weekly about stuff. Stay tuned....

[@mrsrabbit2712]

Holy powerful servo winch Batman! That is crazy power.

[@CoeShow619]

The neutral hold with this Reefs 99 micro winch is weak. Yeah it pulls 20lbs but won’t hold it if you let off the switch. Ah, the things no one ever mentions. I bought this yesterday. Sorta disappointed. The neutral hold should be as strong as the pull until overload.

[@johnunderhill6672]

That is an outstanding little servo... “Mr. Heat Miser”! Time fer a haircut Brother! ~;+}>

[@ExocagedRC]

yeah but its getting cold and I need the insulation.

[@angry870]

Impressive......but the point of this is?.......

[@ExocagedRC]

to pull stuff

[@AAXXIOOMM]

😤 That vertical ascent was phenomenal. Truly. I have this servo installed on my 1/8 Mars motorcycle, to handle the weight from counter steer. Not gonna question its capacity again. thank you for the video.

[@kravenkrawlhobby5438]

Dude I can’t wait until there available again, so sick

[@Tacklefinlures]

Wow beast! 💪

[@nate4024]

I been on the look for a servo winch for both my power hobby lcg like your and for my trail truck. I like the size space saving. Is there any draw backs to this over the internal spool winch

[@rcclan]

That was crazy good

[@mr.sinister1279]

I need a motors like that in my excavator huina 580

[@jon98tj]

Hey, I tried my reefs winch in gt5 5 and 6 channel, works great with potentiometer type knob. Great video, thanks for sharing. Jon

[@Memeteam903]

Is it possible to adjust its speed with these knobs?

[@ryanwalter757]

I would love to test this out on my short wheelbase 1/10 scale JK that is mounted on my d90 chassis and she's going to be quite heavy a truck with the roof rack on it I would say she's about 6 or 7 kilos

[@ExocagedRC]

It should do it without issue

[@LRCR]

Thank's again Joe for another highly detailed video of optional part's, You're always part of my research before purchasing ✌🤠👍 Having Fun Laughing Playing and RCing 🙏 Stay Safe and Play Healthy Brother ❣️

[@307_Scoot]

i think this will open up winch location options on tight on space builds

[@shadow7796]

Really that's all anyone would need even with a heavy rig. I was gonna get the new full size winch from Beeftubes to match my steering servo, but now I don't know. Great video.

[@ExocagedRC]

yeah I know, theres no real need for a bigger winch.

[@imchris5000]

you should make a test bench for stress testing motors. it could be as simple as a gear with a band of steel over it with a bolt to push it down so you can progressively increase the stress on the motor to see when it lets the magic smoke out. no ones doing it yet

[@ExocagedRC]

Man I've been working on a home brew dyno but just keep getting roadblocks on making it work right. It would be a dynamic load so heat would be a heck of an issue.

[@Gmcworrior1]

All i can say is damn

[@jondoe6618]

Dang that thing is cool! I don't need one on my trx4 bronco. But if you had the blazer body I can see needing one badly! haha just poking fun!!!

[@ddavidson0404]

In want to mount a servo winch on my trx4 sport but don't know where I can mount on.. any help thank u

[@kravenkrawlhobby5438]

They are finally back in stock and got to scoop one up. If I like it and it pulls like the show you put on with it I’ll be ordering more of them.

[@billcox87]

wow impressive, curious to see how it would do compared to the rc4wd warn 9.5, i now the rc4wd one isn't the strongest winch out there but it does the job

[@ExocagedRC]

I've yet to see a scale winch even come close to any servo winch.

[@mattnauck2935]

@@ExocagedRC hey does the reefs99 need to use a controller like the rc4wd ones do? Or does it hook directly to the gt5 6 ch rx

[@teamsargentrc6399]

REEFS SERVOS is where its at! Awesome. & thank you so much for being ahead of the hobby. Tons of us go here 1st...

[@MrDan1713]

I do wish servo winch manufacturers would publish pull ratings on their servo winches instead of the servo’s torque. I do realize that if you know the diameter of the drum you can calculate an approximate pull rating, but it would be nice if it were published by the manufacturer.

[@ExocagedRC]

yeah, closer inside it is the stronger. At least we know this little thing is good for 20lbs now.

[@bobsennick7403]

Throw the 422 on there and see what that beast drags! I put my Reefs on the Ch5 potentiometer, love the adjustable rate. The integrated controller is just great. Hopefully my store gets the 99 soon. Reefs said he's giving the new servo a chance to sell at retail first before adding stock to the online shop.

[@ExocagedRC]

Those bigger winches would probably hit 40+
