Winch Controller for Radio with 2 Position Third Channel - Part no. 2PW What do you do if you want to run a winch but your transmitter only has a two position third channel? My new winch controller makes this easy. Just attach it to your servo winch motor or to your 3racing winch and you will be able to work it from your third channel. Each time you press and release the switch on CH3, the winch does the next thing in sequence.

Here is a very short video showing the circuit controlling a winch plugged into a Traxxas TQ3 transmitter which comes with a two position third channel: Winch Controller for two position channel transmitter - YouTube This winch controller installs the same way as my winch controller circuit that works with a three position channel: No Drift Winch Controller! (using 3 position transmitter channel) - RCCrawler Winch Controller for Radio with 2 Position Third Channel Part no. 2PW $30 Need a JST connector included? Order Part No. 3PWJST for $32 * Note that the maximum voltage is 6 volts * Need to make a servo winch? http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/elect...-tutorial.html |
Hey, all. I got one of these from heyok and its on this Ford in this video.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=emDmFPvcF7U The main notable thing... why you need one of these... this controller is small but must let through twice the amps of the stock 3racing one, because using this one the stock 3racing winch on this Ford has NO PROBLEMS dragging this truck up a sheer cliff, as you can see in this video. This controller has tons of power and I've been abusing it for a couple of years. Can't believe it's this cheap!! Best thing I ever installed in my Ford. |
Thanks for the comment Chris! Glad you are happy with it. |
sure...and I just ordered a new radio just for this reason... cool product and nice vid...might be picking one of these up for the wifes rig. |

I just purchased one of these 2pos 3rd channel winch controllers. And I works very well with my dx3s. Heyok has fantastic customer service also. |
Thanks Tom! Glad you like it. |
It was pointed out to me that I don't have a close up picture of the winch controller in this thread. This is what it looks like: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...e/DSC_4548.jpg http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...e/DSC_4547.jpg It plugs into your receiver and the grey wires solder onto the servo motor or can be connected to a 3racing winch in place of the factory controller. http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...e/DSCN0646.jpg If you are installing it on a servo winch, you can tuck the new electronics inside the servo case. http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...C/DSC_1870.jpg The circuit at the bottom of the picture is the original servo amplifier that was removed. There is no longer a connection to the pot as it isn't used any longer. |
Does it mater which gray wire is hooked up to the black or red wire?????:lmao: |

By the way, I built in a safety feature. It will ignore the first time you try and activate it, but will respond every time from then on. |

Right. Not sure how to help with that one! |
Really intersted in one of these. I toasted my sending unit that came with the winch. I can only get it to come in. when I press the botton. Works on another guys hook-up. I do have a question. My aux spot already has my BEC plugged into it. I picked up a y adapter to run the original set up. Let me know if this will still work and I'll take one. |
Quote:
I take it that your third channel is the two position type? |
I already have the y adapter so no problem there. How do I buy one of these from you. I have a paypal account so just let me know. |

If you are asking me if that controller will work with the 9300 Bulldog Winch, sorry, I don't know. If the motor has three connections, then it will probably work. |
Just letting you all know that I've had to raise my prices slightly. I don't do this lightly, but at the same time, I can't build these for free. My time does have some value. The new price for the Winch Controller for Two Position Channel is $30 Regards, Al |
Do you still have any winch controllers for a 2 position 3 channel traxxas radio? I've got a traxxas 2239 2.4 HO. Will this work? Oh and I've got a 3 racing winch 1/10. Can you run the regular winch controller with 2s on stock AE-2 esc and be fine or do I need the high voltage and a BEC? I've got paypal like everybody else too lol Thanks! |

Thanks, Al |
I'm going to start building a TTC Truck. This would be great to use with my 3pm setup. Still have any in stock? |

Just send me a PM with your email address and I will send you a Paypal invoice and get a winch controller out to you. Thanks! Al |
Feed back about Al service... Hi all, I bought the winch control from AL few months ago and had some electrical problem with the winch, when communicated to AL, he immediately replaced with the new one and again had the same problem with the second control, which was again replaced FOC. And to my bad luck, the third control also did not work. For this Al asked me to send the winch and the control to him. I sent it to him by post and AL noted some problem with the winch. AL worked on the winch and replaced the control and posted the working video over to me. (below) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuxhWf363nw I m narrating this story to let you all know the amazing service commitment Al had and his persistent approach to ensure that the product he sold me did work. I really appreciate his approach and attitude towards service. I live in Dubai and has not seen this commitment towards "service". I strongly recommend Al and you can blindly, without a second thought can buy products offered by Al. Thanks Al and appreciate your help for my winch. |
Thank you for the kind words, Maneesh. |
Just bought 2 of them 2 weeks ago and they have been out standing! Al is a great guy to deal with and I will be buying few more in the future"thumbsup". |
Trail ready Couldn't be more stoked. Just installed one on a SF-50 and this thing is a man. So easy to hook up too, just soldered right onto the servo motor and replaced the guts with the new controller, presto. Working high torque winch with no "hacking" my FlySky FS-GT3b. Got exactly whats advertised and it did exactly what I wanted. Im kinda rough on stuff so i waterproofed the servo case and first test hauled up about a 5lb propane bottle on some 10lb test effortlessly. Ill ruin the servo before the switch but Ill be back for more anyways, thanks. |
heyok, do you have any of these 2 position switch controllers on hand i could use one |

Send me a PM and we can work out the details. Thanks, Al |
i know its been said already but i am going to say it again. great product great service. "thumbsup" Thanks again Al |
