Sorry Roger,
This is not what you asked for, but I think the best thing you can do if you wish to ply this route, is to follow the works of others... rather than reinventing the wheel.
These things are pretty big, there is no little one worth building (due to gearbox losses, you need big just to get going)..... with this in mind, any design shortfalls will be expensive boo boos.... in material and time and probably money as well.
When I considered this style of mill, I bought the book from Breezy. They have made all the mistakes, have a shed full of failed blades to prove it, and solved enough of the problems to come up with a practical useful unit.
They are apparently happy to help with your project, and the book, and their controller will be the cheapest part of your project. (the book is detailed enough to not require much help I should think)
They seem to have happy enough customers, and are the only people on the planet I have found that persue this style of machine, and are happy to share it.... I don't know if they have the best design out there, but they're unit works... and that's a good place to start.
As you are aware, I also have first hand experience with bigger (50kw and up) units, and can verify that they are simple. But so is the dual axial flux, and motor conversions...and it seems a common thing to mess these up... even with all the information available on Hughs site and this one.
It is matching things up that is important, and building it strong where it needs it to be, and as the Dans have done for us..... solve all the little things you don't think about till they fail.
So, I know it is not what you wanted to hear, but it is the best thing I can think to offer you.
Best of luck with the project, mine will be starting when I finally get hold of a motor gearbox that will fulfill requirements..... Their blades are the key I think, as they solve several problems with a "fixed speed" head to a variable wind.... all the rest is open for modification.
A few analogue inputs and a few op amps will solve the control problems, but their pic solution is more elegant... and tested, which when you have that sort of mass up in the air is comforting.... I guess.
Remember to design it to go up pretty high to make it worth while... these ain't toys.
