EcoPower WP173W Aluminum Digital Micro Winch Servo (HV) (Waterproof) w/Spool, Line and Hook
The EcoPower WP173W Aluminum Digital Micro Winch Servo with Spool, Line and Hook is purpose-built for micro-scale RC winching applications. Unlike a traditional steering servo, the 173W features 360-degree continuous rotation, making it ideal for spooling winch line in and out. It includes a custom-designed low-profile winch spool, along with winch line and a hook, providing a complete setup right out of the box. This makes it a perfect fit for scale crawlers and trail rigs looking to add both function and realism.
Proven Performance Foundation
The 173W is based on the successful EcoPower 173 servo platform, known for its reliable digital control and compact size. It retains the durable aluminum case, which not only enhances heat dissipation but also provides excellent protection from trail debris and impact. This shared architecture ensures the same trusted performance with enhanced winching capabilities specifically tailored for micro RC use.
Upgraded All-Steel Geartrain
A standout upgrade over the original 173 servo is the 173W’s all-steel internal gears. This change dramatically increases gear strength and wear resistance, making the servo far more reliable under load — especially during demanding winching operations. EcoPower plans to roll this improvement into future 173 servos, but the 173W already includes this upgrade, ensuring enhanced durability right from the start.
Waterproof & High-Voltage Ready
Designed for real-world trail conditions, the WP173W is fully waterproof, allowing it to operate confidently in mud, rain, and stream crossings. It also supports high-voltage operation up to 8.4V, enabling increased torque and performance when paired with high-voltage-capable electronics. Compact and rugged, the WP173W Winch Servo is an excellent choice for hobbyists who demand both scale realism and dependable recovery power on the trail.
