I'm using ALPS ones, but can't remember the name. They only make few models
sow it shouldn't be a problem to find it. The fastest I could get was one
rotation per
second, more or less, at 12V. They are quad pots - 2x10k log and 2x50k
linear.
One taper end is common for each pair AFAIR. Fynny thing, increasing voltage
over 12V caused rotation to slow down...

They are available here in one or two shops and someone is selling them on
Polish
equivalent of ebay.
Probably not much help to you

I checked the website. Looks like ALPS discontiunued those pots. Probably
that's
why I got them so cheap. Anyway, the guy who sells them says it's RK16814MG

__Hi!
__
__Do anyone out there know of a source for fast motor controlled rotary
__potentiometers? The ones Farnell carries rotates 300 degrees in about 
__12 seconds...that's to slow! I want more like 1-2 seconds.
__I only need a few.
