Scx24 Winch Test! // Quick run test and how to install winch for mini crawlers!//

[@VetteWay2Fast]

Nice, those little retractable things have a ton of applications in RC. I used to attach them to the end of my dining room table and on the bottom of the eflite vapor for an "aircraft carrier launch catapult" lol. Was actually pretty fun flying around the room and having a string across the table and hook on the rear to catch the landing vapor as well.

[@UpperLeftRC]

That’s an awesome idea! 😄👍🏻

[@jeffreypursley1914]

Such a great idea and inexpensive to implement. Thanks for sharing.

[@UpperLeftRC]

Thanks for watching!

[@luisgranados2545]

Thanks for the hack just did this last night with the C10 you literally just stick it with a double ended adhesive under the hood make a small hole with the drill on the hood and boom took like 30 secs will try with my other axials

[@UpperLeftRC]

Glad it worked for you 😄👍🏻

[@joekirk114]

You did what for the c10 ?

[@Mikey1962]

Fantastic idea and showing how to do it is just icing on the cake. Thanks.

[@UpperLeftRC]

Glad you enjoyed it 😄👍🏻

[@law7116]

That's such a sweet hack I like that it doesn't pick the truck up it just helps a bit from flipping.

[@V8chump]

Wow I’ve got these little retractable lanyards comin out my ears, what a good use for em! 🤣

[@carolinakayakadventures270]

Thanks for sharing this!!! I’ve seen other people do this but was a little skeptical as to how strong the spring was. I’ve been trying so hard to make a servo winch but they always wind up too heavy. Definitely gonna try this!!! Great video!!!

[@UpperLeftRC]

Yeah I was skeptical as well but they work so great I’m upset I didn’t do it sooner lol 👍🏻

[@brandonreid4511]

I literally use a heavy duty one for the rear winch on my 1/10 competition truck 👍 has saved me and alot of others behind me many times 💪

[@brandonreid4511]

You can actually get chain ones if you can find them! I had one when younger but unfortunately have lost it before I got into RC 👎 hahah

[@jdsrcs8061]

If he doesn't get back to you bro, I will give her a loving home!!!!🤘🤘🤘 What a cool place to mount it. I might have to order some.

[@philip4x4guy]

Just finished this on my son's, so fun to make an impossible line doable!

[@offgridrc245]

That’s an awesome idea, An automatic winch! Thanks for the video 🤘

[@DFDuck55]

Nice! I had seen these retractable ID things used on 10th scale trucks, and it works well for them too. Gonna have to pick one up for my Deadbolt.

[@johnnyfearlesszrx]

Great mod and video. Definitely the next mod on my SCX24 Jeep. Many thanks.

[@chaddavis513RC]

I was looking for a better place to install mine. I had it above my servo and it was not allowing my suspension to work its best so im going to try your advice in my C10. awesome video man!

[@skribzonwhalz8007]

I ran a slightly different setup on my C10, but this is definitely a mod worth adding to a build 🙌🏼💯 so much fun and surprisingly useful.

[@joekirk114]

What did you do for the c10 differently ?

[@BasicRC123]

Brilliant idea, great video! 👍

[@UpperLeftRC]

Thanks 😄👍🏻

[@jasonslezak150]

Great video and very helpful took my winch setup from a 9.5 to a 12

[@Sean-nb4bn]

Love it. Quick easy install, easy to use and it’s effective. Such a great cheap mod

[@Ruckus_Crawler]

That's awesome man, such a good idea!. Thanks for the video

[@UpperLeftRC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lylekehrer6159]

I've seen this too, SoFlo RC he used cut out plastic for the hook. Never even thought about fish hooks. Like the idea! Maybe use pliers to smash the eye to narrow it, might work.

[@chrisoverbey7232]

I did the exact same winch but I used a necklace clasp for the hook. Hooks perfect on the d rings. It definitely works and worth doing.

[@3DRC]

These work killer been using one for a while nice vid🤙

[@bcochener]

Nice little addition there!

[@JaysensRCs]

Nice!! That is sweet. Definitely going to get some. Great video. 😎

Hooray congrats 🎊🎉🍾

I would say give the person another week and if there is still no response draw again. Also, I have to do this on mine! My wife is a nurse and has a ton of them sitting around the house.

that is awesome keep the good work up

[@TR850]

Pretty amazing! Super simple but brilliant idea. Can you please comment on which bumper you are using on the deadbolt that is already designed tho route the string through it?

[@UpperLeftRC]

Yes it’s the hot racing bumper, I don’t have a part number for it anymore but you can find them on Amazon or also at local hobby shops probably, but for sure Amazon has them, they should be easy to find and I’ve seen other off brands that make small route through holes cut in them 😎👍🏻

[@DialupGaming]

Congratulations!

I got both the wheels and tires on eBay, here are two listing I found for both but look around for better prices on eBay or Amazon before you buy them just incase there are better deals 👍🏻 Wheels: www.ebay.com/itm/115043475813?epid=1678785423&hash=item1ac9202165:g:iW4AAOSwU0JhZhSz Tires: www.ebay.com/itm/402618393170?hash=item5dbded2252:g:jfMAAOSwTzpf4RZY

[@SeamusMacMattain]

Thanks for the info and tutorial! my Baby Avenger needs this... it is so top heavy with the diecast body and has an 18mm shorter than deadbolt stock wheelbase, it is a %^&*$&^%$ of a learning curve.... I just got some rocks cleaned and inside the house so I can finally start doing some filming again....

[@UpperLeftRC]

Nice! Can’t wait to see the content 🤘🏼😄

[@brandonfloyd6321]

Could a ring be glued on top of the servo an the string run through it to keep the double barrel shocks from over extending and letting the vehicle hump up and not climb like you made a video about? I forgot about them doing that and I bought a set and gonna have to make a limit strap.

[@mariusskaiaa8900]

Phkkhhkk

[@mrbutchee1]

Heck yeah, could probably use a really small servo too and double side tape it to the bottom of the servo tray too.

[@pmm4177]

That's an awesome idea!

Missed this that blows

[@UpperLeftRC]

All good buddy, check your comment on the live giveaway video

You should do this on each and every one of your trucks and do a tutorial for each truck's winch

I might just do that

No problem, the bumper is “Hot Racing” brand and you can find it in Amazon 👍🏻

Works as long as truck is not too heavy.

[@BraydenWolframe]

Lol, this is the exact same thing I have my swipe card on for work. If it was just a bit bigger you could mount it on the back to look like a spare tire and route the cord through the frame. Maybe I'll open er up and 3d print a fake spare tire to hold it in

idk but i feel like this defeats the purpose of casual crawling. i would never use this but if you guys find enjoyment in it go for it!

[@philip4x4guy]

I know it's an old comment, but you should give it a try, when you try a line 20 times and it's just not doable you pull the winch line and drive it! obviously some people will use it too much, some people will have their machismo threatened by using it but my son and I are having a blast with it, it's just another layer of fun! (I'm seriously surprised by how fun it is to have as an option
