thanks!
do you think the 3racing winch will run fine at 7.2 volts. I have read SOOO many threads and responses with different answers on what people are running as far as voltage through these things

Sorry, I don't know. When I run them from the controller I make, they run at the receiver voltage.

Yeah the winch & stock controller will run fine on 7.2v.
3r recommend max 2s lipo input which is 8.4v max, 7.4 nominal so no issues at all.

The max voltage the winch will run with life to it would be 9.0 volts.

I have seen them run on 3s lipo voltage straight and last awhile, but you could set your bec to 9.0 and be good to go.



Nice diagram.

I am still a newb, and this was an awesome diagram! BTW I'm proud to be a newb, at least I'm crawling! Thanks for the info, now just waiting for my winch and bec to show up, then it's wiring time.
