Probably best to do a single test on one of the coils and find out what you get. to be honest (and I made this mistake) you should build the PMA and then design blades to power it, not the other way round like you (and I) have done as this limits the power as if the blades are to big they spin to slow and if there to small they won't have enough torque to turn in lower wind speeds.

Basically do a single coil test and see what you get then come back to this post or another one and tell use what you get. From this we can help more.
