Is there a better servo?
#1
I run a servo winch on my Wraith and currently have an OLD Cirrua CS80. It's very strong and will pick my weighted truck up off the ground no problem. My problem is, it's slow as dirt! I can't find any budget servos with similar power that are faster although I don't believe this one is as fast as it says.
Servodatabase.com rates it at 343oz @ .14 on 6v
Here us a short video showing just how slow this is.

Can someone point me to a servo with similar power and faster?

I'm not entirely concerned with price. I didn't buy this one, I got it in a trade and when I decided to experiment with the servo winch, that's the one I picked.
I know .14 isn't bad but there is no way that's what I'm actually getting.

I don't think it was to do with the servo being slow, more-so as the servo being overworked. I don't know many servos that are made to lift a 5-8 lbs vehicle off the ground. I would stick to cheaper servos for your winch, as with that type of abbuse, you will be running through gear sets frequently.

Amain sells a Protek servo that would be similar in torque but much faster speed rating.....granted you have to run it in HV but even at 6V, the specs are pretty good.
