Barry,
  Run it on a 12V battery.  Use double ball bearing swivels, do not use a
parachute on the winch line.      Use a 1" nylon neon colored strap with D
rings on the strap in place of the chute.

Subject: [RCSE] Rahm retriever


CSS has a Rahm retriever that doesn't get much use.  I tried somewhat
successfully to get it going.  It does, however, put a lot of twist
in the line which leads to some problems of snarls.  Swivels are in
place on the harness now.

Does anyone use a Rahm retriever successfully?  If so, what line is
in use, do you use something to work against the twist, eg. prop or
spinner, any recommended techniques?  We're running ours on a 6 volt
battery and it still goes waaaay fast.

Any help appreciated.

Barry
