| 3Racing winch wiring HELP
I just got my winch in and wanted to install it tonight. I was wondering what the best route is to go with this. Should I use the Two plug method if so how would I go about doing this. Or should I just use the one plug. If really like to only use one battery. But I suppose I could use a small nimh hump pack for this one. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I clipped the battery connector off and soldered those wires inline with the ESC power wires. plug in battery, good to go.

Are you using a lipo? If so, how many cells?

| It's a 2s so it's good. But i have a tf40 tx on this one and when I plug the winch in it just spools by its self I think I have it hooked up wrong or sonething. Is this right?[IMG]http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/09/ u3ysu6a8.jpg[/IMG] I cut the tamiya connector off and soldered like that. I see what the problem is now that I thought about it. It's constantly getting power but how am I supposed to correct this? |

I run a 3S lipo to mine. The motor takes it like a champ. The two main reasons why I use an ESC for this purpose; One, I use a MT4 radio. The lever is my winch control. I have a variable speed line rate. Two, when I do not need my winch, I turn the ESC off and never have to worry about line creep. There are several great ways to wire your winch up. This is what works best for me. Remember when winching, use the Official Land Anchor of the RECON G6, the Pul Pall RW60. Don't get stuck without one! | |

Is the trim on 3 set correctly? I had the issue at first as well. My radio, the DX3R, 3rd channel had to be switched in the programming to 3way position and then my trim was off. Once centered it works fine. But yes mine is wired as in the pic above Sent via Pocket Command |

For much cheaper than a new radio you can get this and wire it in. Winch Controller for Radio with 2 Position Third Channel Planning on getting one myself soon so I can use my servo winch with my 2pos 3ch radio. |

Yeah but it's so much easier just to have the remote. I wanted a new one anyway. I'll probably end up getting a heyok anyway. | |

unless you really really want a new radio... Like I mentioned, the DX3R has 2pos, 3pos, and others available for each channel, yours is probably just set in one of the others. | |
