Add-a-channel

ADD-A-CHANNEL

Easily add a three position servo channel to your project.

This circuit lets you add a three position channel with it's own remote control to your project.

Plug the power connector into a spare power port on your existing receiver. The ADD-A-CHANNEL receiver runs happily with anywhere from 5 to 9 volts and will pass that voltage along to the servo you plug into the servo connection.

The receiver has full centering and end point adjustments via screw driver adjustable controls.

Going to be picking up one of these very soon! Thanks for taking the time to change around the original design to become this!

Yes, it would work a winch. Provided that the winch has some sort of three position channel winch controller.

This part would be another way to go as the winch controller part is integrated into the wireless receiver:

I think that it is great that Al has taken the time developed all of these switching devices for some of us that don't have the electronic know how you may have. And I'm willing to pay for his time. I THINK it is very rude of you to dis him on his thread and imply that he is ripping people off.

Al's labor isn't free. I don't need and extra channel but I have bought things from him in the past and every time I feel like I got my money's worth.
