Thanks so much Bill.
I'm paying attention to two products, don't rush.
You were very helpful and, as always, kind.

I'm afraid that this type of winch is no longer available, I hope they haven't stopped producing it.
From a recent message from DuncanP on his build blog I got further feedback on this.
I hope I'm wrong.

Hi Doug.
Thanks for the clarification.

There is a misunderstanding. I didn't mean to look for that particular article.
If I find exactly that even better but it is not mandatory.

I'm looking for any winch that has metal gears and a plastic spool.
They are objects for nautical modeling, so the dimensions are roughly always the same, they vary slightly.

I saw that in this forum, although I don't remember exactly who, like me, uses these winches instead of the normal servo controls.

The characteristics may be close but not necessarily exactly the following:

Sail Winch Servo 13kg / 0.7sec (360deg) / 55g
Specifications:
Weight: 55g
Dimensions: 40.5 x 20.2 x 38mm
Speed: 0.9sec / 360deg (4.8V) - 0.7sec / 360deg (6.0V)
Torque: 11kg.cm (4.8V) - 13kg.com (6.0V)
Operating voltage: 4.8 - 6.0V
Gear train: Metal

However, to help me understand better I'll post the link to the one I looked at (but which isn't available) as Doug suggested.

Sorry Alessandro,
But that picture with no manufacturer name or type / model number is pretty useless for identification.🤔
Maybe you can -
a. take a more informative photo, showing Name and type ID,
b. find your old Hobby King bill for the ID,
c. Give us a link to the Hobby King item or catalogue reference.
Then we 'might' have more luck finding one for you.
Cheers, Doug😎
Young at heart 😉 Slightly older in other places.😊 Cheers Doug

Good evening everyone.

I've been wanting to buy this winch that I show in the attached image for some time.
To control the sails I prefer these to normal servos, the cost did not exceed 16 euros.
It's not urgent but I can't find it anymore.
I bought three of them on Hobby King, but for more than two or three years it has been in the catalog but no longer available.
I can't even find it on other e-commerce sites.

Can anyone give me some useful links?
