I would think some cork that is spring loaded it worked fine in the old motorcycle clutches.

Make a disk out of copper 1,5 mm thick and use a pair of hard disk magnets just like it was a disk brake caliper as close to the copper as possible. you will bee amazed with the drag it creates. I think some "vent" holes around the disk also changes the amount of drag. This is caused by eddy currents generated with in the copper when it moves in the magnetic field.
