Full details
The Absima 2320136 Winch Control Unit is designed for RC enthusiasts who want to add realistic winch functionality to their scale models. It allows for seamless remote operation of any Absima winch directly through your radio transmitter, providing the ability to extend, stop, and retract your line with precision. While it offers excellent integration, please note that it requires a transmitter equipped with a switchable third channel that supports button-based input.

FAQs
Does this work with non-Absima winches?
This unit is designed specifically for Absima winches and may not function correctly with third-party motor systems.
Can I use this with a 2-channel radio?
No, this unit strictly requires a 3rd channel on your transmitter to send the control signals.
Is the cable length adjustable?
The cable is approximately 30 cm long and is fixed; you should route it carefully to avoid interference with moving parts.
Does the unit need external power?
The unit is powered through the receiver's connection, meaning no separate power source is required.
What happens if I hold the button down for too long?
It is recommended to release the button once the winch is fully retracted to prevent motor strain or 'stalling' the winch mechanism.
Troubleshooting
Winch does not respond to transmitter input
Ensure the 3rd channel is assigned to a button and that the lead is firmly connected to the correct receiver port.
Winch continues to run after releasing the button
Verify that your radio's 3rd channel is set to 'momentary' mode and check for any trim settings on the transmitter that may be causing a constant signal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the controller, connect the input lead into your receiver's 3rd channel port and the output lead directly into the winch motor. Ensure your radio's 3rd channel is set to 'momentary' or 'button' mode rather than 'toggle' for the best experience. The unit is weather-resistant but should be kept away from excessive moisture or direct submersion to prevent short-circuiting the internal components. Regularly inspect the 30 cm wire leads for signs of fraying or pinched insulation caused by tight chassis clearances.
