how to control a 3racing winch?

[brockly242]

hey, I just ordered my 3racing winch!!!(Cant wait to get it as i also just ordered a Spektrum DX3E so it should be a fun combo) And i'm not sure if i have to order another batter because I have a 1800 mah ni-mh and that is what i am running my axial scx10 tr dingo with and im not sure if i can run the truck and the winch with the single battery pack
So if anyone can give me soem info it really would be appreciated!!

depending on how much winching you do you should be ok with a 1800 but I wouldn't expect much from that battery.
Also, it's a good idea to run a BEC of some sort, I recommend the CC 10amp bec. this will help when you are winching and your esc can't supply enough amps to your steering and the winch.

No your current pack will be fine if you are using the stock control unit. (dont expect massive run time if you winch alot is all)

All you need to do it make a y-harness to put the esc & winch controller in parallel and it will be fine.

A BEC is a great idea, but no required as the winch controller doesnt draw power from the esc, it takes it straight from the main pack.

There are instructions that come with the winch, read those and it'll be fine.
