Hi all,recently bought a micro magic to build ,my first sail boat,i might add just come back to model boats.the kit up to know has two missing parts.the part that concerns me most is a small pulley wheel which goes on servo arm.it is a 3 part piece and i,ve got the pulley wheel missing.the suppliers of kit have told me the company went bust so cannot get a replacement.i,m hoping someone can point me in the right direction for something similar from another model.thankyou.neil

Try Radio Sailing -Mike Weston.
Unless you bought it from him %)
He still has a few spares

Micro Magic kits are available again from the new resurrected Graupner company,
I have built 2 of the new generation kits this year, supplied by Anglia Model Centre -
if your kit was a recent purchase I would be getting on to your supplier !
Mike Weston does have many spare parts available, guessing a Dragon Force RG65 part would be similar size,
failing that try 'Pekabe' fittings - vast range of blocks and pulleys etc but pricey.

Dragonforce uses a winch as opposed to a sail arm.
Pekabe fittings should have what you need.
