Windforce 906MG Fast Digital Sail Winch for RG65 RC sailing boats

The Windforce 906MG Fast Digital Sail Winch is a particularly fast and powerful digital sail winch in a standard servo size. It has been specially developed for the RG65 RC sailing boat racing class and is ideal for ambitious regatta sailors who value precise sail adjustment, high torque and fast response times.

With a holding force of up to 88 Ncm at 6 V and a speed of just 0.16 seconds per 360° at 6 V, the Windforce 906MG is significantly faster than the Windforce 1406. As a result, the jib and mainsail respond to control commands with virtually no delay – a clear advantage in regattas and changing wind conditions.

A distinctive feature of the Windforce sail winch series is the encapsulated winch drum. It guides the sheet securely and reliably prevents it from coming off the drum. The maximum sheet travel is programmable: depending on the intended use, 1 to 6 revolutions of the winch drum can be set. This results in a possible sheet travel of approx. 7.5 to 45 cm.

Thanks to its metal gearbox, high holding force and fast digital control, the Windforce 906MG enables precise and controlled sailing – even in stronger winds.
