Excellent link thanks
You seem to be the site oracle, has the idea of using a ducted fan arrangement to enable higher tip speeds with less noise and vortex losses been discussed. I got no hits from a site search.

Thank you for the link, it helped a lot. It would appear that the right tip can significantly increase performance. Now I just have to figgure out what im going to make it out of, and how to duplicate.
