I have been watching Chris Olson's youtube video's. I must say ive become a fan of his geared 12 G turbines.
My question relates to setting the furling resistance on his or any other members designs. Chris spoke about a conservative furling resistance and an optional `power` setting which is not recommmended.
If the furling system had an actuator or screw type of device, which could use weather warnings or wind speed predictions from Meterology sources to either
a)fully furl during storms
b)conservative setting in high winds
c) `power` setting all other times
This is of course over complicating things, but for low-medium wind sites it may yield better results or not.
Ive never built a turbine but look forward to. This is the newbie section so just thinking out loud.....
