The Traxxas Pro Scale Remote Operated Winch (TRX8855) delivers powerful, realistic recovery capability for scale trail rigs. A high-torque motor and automatic brake provide confident control, while the fob-style remote puts precise Line In and Line Out at your fingertips. With a 10-pound maximum capacity, reinforced line over four feet long, and a rugged metal hook, it’s built to handle demanding trail recoveries.
Convenient features make operation fast and reliable. A free spool release lets you pull out line by hand when you need rapid access, and the two-channel remote can control front and rear winches independently. The winch’s waterproof construction and overload protection add all-weather durability and peace of mind. Power is taken directly from the vehicle battery via the XL-5 HV accessory plug, avoiding receiver current draw. Built-in electronics, single-wire hookup, and adaptable mounting options simplify installation on a wide range of scale builds.
