RC Winches  From a modelsailor To a modelsailor

More than 30 years of model sailing are behind me.
As technical engineer I was working in the Aircraft Industries at a research laboratory. My job was investigation into the properties of high-tech materials. Of course I had to know if these materials were applicable for my Marblehead. I was one of the first using carbon fibres for fin and rudder. I produced a lot of home-made carbon fibre (shroud less) masts.
I build my own transmitter, receiver and developed a self made winch.
Nowadays all these items are easy to buy.

But just when Graupner stopped the production of there famous Regatta winch, I needed one. That was the reason I tried to modify a servo into a winch. The result was so successfully that I decided to take this high voltage winch in production.

Today I sell two fast and lightweight high quality winches. They are applicable for IOM, M, Ten or A class boats. Several types of drums are available and a cable switch with voltage regulator. For RG65 there is a small winch (32g) available.
