Pulling Power! WPL C34 Winch Install & Test. Little Winch Big Power!

Hello KZbin.
Today's video is very kindly sponsored once again by WPL. This time they have sent me a winch to test on the kit C34 we built in the last few videos. This is a genuine WPL winch and is fully compatible with there RES-V3 ESC and receiver. And there's even a switch on the compatible controller which makes using it a breeze! Whats it like? Spoiler alert BRILLIANT!!

The winch works great it will lift complete vehicle of the ground, now you need a 3 way fishing hook to make an anchor 🙂🙂👍👍👍👍👍

Great piece of kit from WPL. Thanks for the video.

No worries thanks for stopping by. 👍

Sweet 😎 definitely got some ideas for that bit!! Thanks for the vid!!

No worries glad you enjoyed. 👍👍

You actually had the winch instructions featured in this video, folded out and in plain sight, but you ignored them several times. A good comedy of errors 😄... ..however, you showed us what to do and what not to do. I like how this winch is scaled well and is not a "monster winch" like you might see on a top of the line 1/1 vehicle--I think it is designed to look antique or from the same era as the C34 {which is a mid to late 70s FJ40}.

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

Hahahaha. Real men don't need instructions they just wing it! Anyway I got a fully functional winch at the end which is all that matters 😄! Yes it's a nice scale piece, doesn't look out of place like you say. 👍🙋👍

[@Pezzapoo]

the winch is very cool, I got one for the B36 but will put it on another build later

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

I was quite taken aback how good it performed. Does actually help! 👍👍

É muito legal amigo as peças da Wpl até parece um carro de verdade como é que agente não pode deixar de gostar deste Hobbes.

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

Olá! Sim, o guincho realmente parece a parte! E funciona muito bem também. Saudações do Reino Unido.

[@ArmanRC]

well that was very great winch, can able lift its own weight

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

It's surprisingly powerful to be fair! 👍

[@grrfy]

OO! NICE! Do you fancy fitting one onto the rear of the UMG?

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

Sounds like a challenge! 👍

[@grrfy]

@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 am thinking on the roll frame,time to make it a working truck! I also need to find out the length of the fuel truck backend from the wpl ,and see if can make it fit widthways on the UMG

[@edwardlove4300]

Hello, question for you ok. On the winch mount did you trim the two rear facing plastic arms ?

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

@edwardlove4300 on the one I have, they slot between the bumper mounts. And I've affixed them with some screws and washers. 👍

[@edwardlove4300]

@@theminiatureconstructionco4556 thanks I'm definitely interested. 😸🐱😹

[@burtgnejs1924]

When changing to deans plug. Is it just to switch the plug on the same cable as the jst was on? Just cut of the old plug and soder on the deans ? Thanks for your videos. Just got myself a c44, and I want to put deans on it as well. Have a great day.

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

Yes Burt. Just cut the old battery connector off and replace with your deans. Obviously making a note of the polarity! Job done! 👍🙋👍🙋

[@johncirri]

How's it wired up, do you need a remote switch please explane.

[@theminiatureconstructionco4556]

The WPL esc board has a three pin socket for the winch. And the transmitter has a toggle switch built in. You can also do it with a multi channel transmitter. 👍

[@johncirri]

Thanks you saved me a few hours of fiddling for nothing, I just ordered the same radio and esc cheers.
