Default which radio to operate winch

hello,

im working on my first rig which is a axial scx10 tr that ive already replaced all the electronics on for waterproofing besides the reciever and radio.

my problem is i ordered a 3racing winch but i dont want to have to use a button on the truck.

what is a good radio/reciever combo that i could get to control the winch with just flip of a switch on radio. like a in/neutral/out switch.

i still want to be able to control the steering and motor while being able to turn on and off winch at same time.

does anyone make a setup like this?

My Futaba 3pm-mx works dandy for this, very crawler friendly radio with tons of adjustment..

What do you think about the traxxas TQ 4 channel that has the 2 position ch3 and 3 position toggle switch ch4

then i would just plug in winch to ch4 and go right????

then the 3rd channel could be used for lights or something?
