has anyone tried running the 6V controller on 6.5 volts?
i know the max is 6(for liability reasons im sure) but i hate to spend the cash on the 12V version especially since i need to buy 3 of them.
just out of curiousity has anyone slightly over voltaged one of these 6V versions to 6.4 or 6.5V? outcome?

Got them on Friday, installed on Sunday, works perfect! I have two rc4wd winches(this is how I expected them to work when I bought them!) Thanks
My controller works PERFECTLY! It really opened up my 3Racing winch.
Shipping from Canada didn't take TOO long, and the price was very fair. He even worked with me on custom length leads no problem.
If you run a winch, be it servo or not, a controller from heyok is a must have IMO

thanks for the PM man. super simple fix. i even thouhgt of trying it, but you confirmed it.
Ok, I got a newb question about the winch controller.
I have a FS-GT3B that's hacked with 3 channel firmware on it currently. Anyway, I can put the 6 channel on it since I plan to run 4ws and winch.
With the 3 position controller I'm guessing it works as follows:
Neutral - channel is centered in neutral and it doesn't move (basically motor is in braking mode)
Forward - spools winch out
Reverse - reels winch back in
Is that basically it? So, all I need to do is program the thumb switch which is basically a 2 button switch to do the following:
click forward - unspool winch
click backward once - move back to neutral/brake on the radio so the winch stops
click backwards again - starts to spool in winch
click forward once - stops winch in neutral/brake again
I'll check out the GT3B thread and play with my programming. If I understand it correctly though, I can just hook up a spare servo and program it so it's pointing in one direction, centered, and pointing the other direction depending on how I click the buttons on the radio.
Am I understanding this correctly?

You have it all covered. Couldn't have described it better myself! Well done!
Hey, if you are up to it, would you post up the "GT3B recipe" here to show how you set up your transmitter to do this?
Absolutely, I'm happy to help. There are a few different firmware options out there. I've been running an older firmware that works well for me. I'll post the version and recipe. I don't have a winch yet (and my Wraith needs a lot of work still) but I'll do it for just a regular servo.
