This is not a "normal" winch-controller.
Important parts are missing in the description - and of course it does not come with a manual.
Comes really nicely packed in a plastic box, does have a PH2.0 plug ("mCPx") for plugging in a winch or motor.
I needed quite a lot of time to work out how this winch controller works.
It does not work as a "normal" speedcontroller works.
You will plug the winch controller directly to the receiver.
But you cannot go forwards, backwards (and change speed), if you plug it to channel 2 (ESC channel)
Every time, the winch controller gets a signal from the receiver/transmitter, it changes the direction of the motor/winch turn and runs slowly. Next "signal" is stop. Next signal is "run other direction".
This has some advantages and some disadvantages, but I think, Banggood or RBR/C should tell us with a manual, how this winch controller works!
It means: You can use this winch controller with a simple push button on your transmitter, as many transmitters do have (on the handle) and most people use for switching on/off lights.
No 3-position switch is needed to control this winch controller, a push button does the job!
This is a big advantage for people using a simple 3-channel transmitter with ch-3 controlled by a push button. They can control a winch now using this controller!
But if you have a tx with 3-position switch, you cannot use this winch controller as you were used to with "normal ESCs" - pushing the switch to one direction - winch will go to this direction, center is stop, pushing to the other direction, winch will go to the other direction. This winch controller will work with such a switch, but it will change motor direction every time you push it, no matter, in which direction.
So it is always - direction 1 - stop - direction 2 - stop - direction 1 - stop - direction 2 - stop... and so on.
Nice: powerd by receiver.
Check out BG 1533777 for a rx powered ESC which works perfectly as winch controller.
