Motors have losses so as a motor the rpms will be less than some theoretical and as a generator the rpms would have to be more than the theoretical. My motor has been documented as running no-load at 2000rpm at 100V but needing 2800rpm to generate 100V.

I just tried cutting the existing pipe to 24" long 1 5/16 at tip and 4" at the root with the same bolt holes and it still wont move! BUMMER!!
Is the 4" the way to go or is it cogging too much to do anything??
Help!!
