Thanks for the comments. I was just wondering how well this would work. No intention of purchasing, a bit pricey and no place to fly it.
Ok so it would start making power into 12v at low rpm. How many amps could you actually draw it is only a 7.0 armature?
It would seem to me a better match would a gear up of 3:1 to get the voltage in the range of a SMA Windyboy and use it for direct grid tie? Then you stand a chance of using the full 1.5hp rating.
