Hi Flite Models Two-Speed Ford Longshaft Winch ??
I noticed this item on eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1
It's a "Hi Flite Models 2 Speed Sailplane winch". It looks like a typical Ford longshaft motor.
Does anyone know how they got the two speeds?
I asked the seller. His reply was: "There is a foot pedal that you step on and activates the two speeds."

Uses a two position foot pedal switch and balast resistors. Intended to be easy on the then fairly breakable RC sailplanes of the late 70's.
