The above is all correct except that the pole pcs.
on the rotor are laminated steel and the mags must be buried beneath them

They used a five to one gear ratio and three
blade with a nineteen foot dia.
The blade were hollow aluminum with louvers at
the root and exits at the tip to evacuate
the wind piled up at the center.
They claimed higher efficiency, however the hollow
blades broke and were not very efficient that way.
<Lastly, what will you be doing with the <br>

I hope to sell it to recoup some of my cost in
purchasing the inverter.
By the way, I need the service manuals for the
inverter and the schematics if anyone has any
info.
