scoraigwind,
Thanks for the reply.
I built the generator using the book, "Homebrew Wind Power" by Dan Bartmann and Dan Fink. They used a 20 degree tail angle,so that is what I used. But I made my tail angle adjustable.
I don't know what angle I have it set at now, maybe 7 to 10 degrees, but when it furls, I hardly notice the tail raising. In gusty winds, I have seen it go over 80 amps at 55 volts, so I am reluctant to increase the tail angle.
In the 15 to 20 MPH wind speed range, it furls and watts drop to around 800 to 1000. I would like to start furling just above 20 MPH which should generate around 3000 watts. That is why I would like a lighter tail so I can increase the tail angle. It doesn't seem like there is enough adjustment with this heavy tail.
