KP 10:1 GEARED RUBBER WINDER

To achieve long flight times with rubber free flight models, you will need to apply many turns to the rubber motor.

The quickest and easiest way to do this is using a geared rubber winder.

This winder has a 10:1 ratio which means that for every turn of the handle, the rubber will be wound 10 times.

Made in the UK from tough acetal plastic and finished in bright yellow (so you'll easily find it when you put it down!), this winder is perfect for smaller and indoor models.

Shipping

UK SHIPPING

Most orders are shipped via Royal Mail’s Tracked 48 service.

We are in the middle of nowhere and so our Royal Mail collection is at around 1pm.

Example:

An order placed before 12pm on Monday should be with you on Wednesday.

An order placed after 12pm on Monday should be with you on Thursday.

For larger or heavier orders, we use UKMail/DHL to deliver your package on a Next Working Day service.

Example:

An order placed before 10am on Monday should be with you on Tuesday.

An order placed after 10am on Monday should be with you on Wednesday.

For larger or heavier orders, we use UKMail/DHL to deliver your package on a Next Working Day service.

Shipping is free to UK Mainland addresses for orders over £30.00, otherwise we charge £6.00 for Royal Mail Tracked 48 parcels and £12.00 for UKMail/DHL Next Working Day.

NORTHERN IRELAND, HIGHLANDS & ISLANDS

Royal Mail considers Northern Ireland, Scottish Highlands and UK Islands as part of the UK and so does not charge a premium for deliveries.

Pretty much all other UK couriers have surcharges for deliveries to the following postcodes: IV, HS, KA27-28, KW, PA20-49, PA60-78, PH17-26, PH30-44, PH49-50, ZE, BT, IM, TR21-25

If you live in one of these postcodes and the parcel size of your order is outside Royal Mail's dimensions, you will have to pay a surcharge.

Our system is not clever enough to work this out and so if your order attracts a surcharge, we will contact you before despatch to see if you would like to pay the surcharge and proceed with the order or cancel and receive a full refund.

 

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING

Smaller items

Items that fit within Royal Mail International Tracked Medium Parcel parameters (59cm x 17cm x 15cm weighing less than 2kg) can be sent to most countries outside the UK.

For example up to 3 of our smaller 18” wingspan kits can fit into one of these parcels.

A parcel like this currently costs around £14 to Europe and around £18 to send to the USA and will take up to 3 weeks to arrive. This is because Royal Mail hands over the parcel to the local Post Office service for your country who have to clear it through customs and then deliver it to you.

The Royal Mail tracking code also transfers over to the tracking for your country’s postal service.

Larger items

For items that do not fit within Royal Mail International Tracked Medium Parcel parameters, we use standard international couriers such as DHL, FedEx and UPS.

These companies use something called volumetric weights to calculate the cost of shipping.

For example, a Balsa Basics RC bundle kit that measures 102cm x 34cm x 16cm and weighs 2.5 kg is actually calculated at 14kg!

This makes these very expensive to send outside the UK - a large kit can cost nearly £40 to send to France.

10:1 Winder
Rating:
07 May 2023  | 

This was purchased with the counter (see separate review). It does the job, and makes a massive difference in time and effort; no more RSI from hand-winding! With no load it spins easily. With a load, however, it is is stiff to turn. On the good side, that means that if you let go, the handle cant spin backwards. On the not so good side I worry about how long it will last. Pulling it apart I find a thrust bearing with 5 minute ball bearing (and I mean minute!). All else other than the hook a bearing axle and screws are plastic (which is likely fine for the task at hand). I've droped a very small amount of light machine oil on these balls which helps matters considerably: I hope it wont do anythng to the plastic surfaces that these balls run on, but frankly without it I suspect it wont last long any way. The only other thing is, you may want to smooth off the edges of the winding hook as these are sharp and will cut your rubber motor without care. Is it worth it .. as long as it keeps working even after a fashion - YES.
