NEW from Precision RC Works In partnership with Deadman Off-Road, we have released a 1:10 licensed version of their earth anchor.
This unique, lightweight and fully functional anchor can be used as a tree saver, a rock anchor, or buried as an anchor. Good for one functional scale point in your rig, and something completely new and different in the tiny truck world.
The Deadman Earth Anchor
We created the Deadman™ Earth Anchor™ (patent pending) because we wanted to explore with confidence. We often found ourselves venturing solo, and with very little room to spare in our vehicle we needed recovery gear that was at once lightweight, small, and adaptable to different terrain. The Deadman was our solution to this need. With this single device, we can create a winch anchor point out of almost anything Mother Earth throws our way -- without breaking the bank or taking up precious cargo space. For us, this opened new avenues to adventure and the freedom to explore. We believe in having many different recovery tools in our recovery kit; the addition of something as versatile as the Deadman gives us options -- and since every recovery is unique, and conditions are never ideal, having options might just be what's needed to get us home.
WHAT'S AN EARTH ANCHOR
Ok, anything you bury in the ground as a winching anchor point is defined as a deadman anchor. So yes, we named our product The Deadman in honor of this, however its versatility both above and below ground has led us to refer to it as an Earth Anchor. You see, the Deadman is not simply a ground anchor: it can anchor to a tree, a rock, or the ground unlike anything else. Most anchors only work in one scenario, meaning you must carry multiple anchors to ensure preparedness. The Deadman’s unique design allows it to be extremely capable in all three scenarios, making it the most versatile off-road anchor ever.
THE DEADMAN EARTH ANCHOR
Our primary design objective was to create something small and lightweight that could be easily buried - and be retrieved without more digging - for self-recovery in areas where there is nothing else to attach a winch to. What we came up with surprised us! It weighs less than 5lb, fits underneath a seat, and works to anchor to so much more than just the dirt. Because it’s a soft product, it can also be used around trees and rocks with increased safety relative to traditional anchors… and we keep finding new uses for the Deadman all the time. For instance, because it's made from industrial grade, non-stretch polyester webbing (same as a tree strap), it can also be used as a 15' winch extension. We've also found it useful as a ground mat, a fluid catch, a shade, and more - we're looking forward to what ideas our customer community comes up with as well!
