Tajin

Unwinding speed is not linear but instead automatically accelerates at the beginning and slows down at the end.
The speed also only seems to have no effect when pulling the rope in. (unless the end of the rope is not attached to anything)
High unwinding speeds (over ~250) can cause your cargo to get stuck in midair.
