Have had the VAWT test rig in the air since last Sunday. Quite disappointed honestly. Oh, it whirls on a whisper of air, but it's speed never reaches anything approaching usable. This may be due to the blade width (not wide enough) angle of blade (incorrect/excessive stall angle) or any number or combination of factors, … Continue reading R&D, or how failure is a learning tool
