The drive mechanism, is self contained, and has 2 wires direclty to the 
motor, and 3 wires connected to a small PCB, thic contains the 
optoreflector that is used to determine when the end of travel has been 
reached.

This drive mechanism does indeed seem to be similar to  several others 
(as you might expect). We've already seen at least one other example of 
the same mechanism in a different housing, I also understand that the 
max! unit is a similar derivative.

  It shouldn't be too hard to get an atmega driving the mechanics. From 
there choose your desired RF platform.
