12 foot wind turbine failure | 20 comments (20 topical)

 It looks to me like the problem isn't in what was used as far as nuts and washers, but the fact that the wood compressed under the washers.

I do believe a way to make sure the tail doesn't lift should be in order, like a bolt through the top of the tail pivot and maybe a stop that keeps the tail out of the blade area totally.

 Also was there any damage to the coils? any sign of overheating?
