This is a short note to Jerry and friends. The below image is of a wood tower available for testing some of the designs that were mentioned in your posts and shown on your images. This tower will be used also for testing of small "verticals", which seem to be getting some play here. The tower is about 15' tall. The wind is good and steady at this location and a hand held wind meter is available.

It might also be mentioned that a thin bladed 3' diameter experimental free-wheeling device is pictured on the website that ran super fast with its flat, doubled, offset blades, implying that your four-bladers could be tried with two doubled-blades instead to gain reinforcement in each from one blade behind the other with a strut between.
