Methods and apparatus for spooling a flexible member onto a drum with a spooler assembly. In certain embodiments, a spooler assembly comprises a spooler arm operable to guide a flexible member onto a drum rotating about a drum axis. A first actuator moves the spooler arm in a first direction that is parallel to the drum axis. The first actuator operates in a first mode wherein the flexible member is allowed to free movement in the first directi on and a second mode wherein the first actuator controls the movement of the flexible member in t he first direction. The spooler assembly may also comprise a second actuator that moves the spooler arm in a second direction that is perpendicular to the drum axis.
