These are tow release mechanisms for R/C model gliders in the 1.5-2.5m size range.
There are 3 models:
1. Just the release mechanism (8mm dia)
2. Tow release integrated into a 50mm long x 48mm dia nose cone
3. Tow release integrated into a 65mm long x 60mm dia nose cone
The tow release mechanism is a "pin in tube" style release, so you will need a length of music wire to act as the pin, and run back to your release servo. They are designed for 1mm wire, but anything from about 0.8-1.5m
