Notice the mention of a planetary gearset.
The trick is to getting the desired output in watts.
This is where Thermodynamics comes into play. The amount of heat in the conductors is acceptable for the expected power output.
Small alternators are also useful.

That's a great spot for you mill.
How much space will you put between the ground and the bottom of the rotating body ?
That depends.
The rotating body might be dig in so no no longer require guy wires.
But My eventual goal is to have the arms rotate close to the ground/structure that holds them.
So we can have them floating if all is engineered out enough.
But in direct answer to your question in this specific scenario it is a little more than 120CM above grass level.
---
Even though that the rotating body does still spin on the grass at like 10 CM elevation.
Hence my idea to dig them in or submerge them somehow. These columns
But in the end of the day the level of the arms should be situational. For me it is as high so long they to not cut my other projects.
#2That's a great spot for you mill.

I would like to debate what is the difference between a mill and a turbine?
I think I know. Please let me know if I am mistaken.
A mill is a wind/ water turbine driven machine that mills something. usually grain or the likes.
Hence we are no longer milling anything I think we should be able to call it turbines yes?
Or at the very least chargers(of batteries)
Please just accept my emotional response because I feel about these things. As my country "invented" mills (that is probably not true at all)
So I just am a bit of a strickler regarding that.
#3Lawn mowers have used a magnetic clutch system for decades. Your answer to torque at a certain point might use a similar method to kick in a bigger load or to brake.
Yes brother, I have no idea what you meant there. Please elaborate and I will be sure to do the same.

Please let me get this out there!!
Should anyone know how to create a 1:30 drive. then please do not be shy..
I can maybe get to 22, even more perhaps 24 x!! and that is including knowing that the drive will become the weak point and break down rather fast!!!
1:30 stable? any ideas gang?
are we sure that a 2m rotor diam is going to be useful?
Adriaan do you concur?
If so then I think we should all be updated on a new way of calculating as then it seems that this omincalcularor I refereed to is useless.
Quotemore than you asked for.Sure, every system that evolves long enough develops prehensile things like gall bladders and wisdom teeth.
I was pretty sure you operated off-grid, but wondered if there was occasional support from an existing supply.
Thanks for the extra detail.
My house is already on grid, so I'm looking at an existing pump, stove, heating and other things that pull many thousands of kW each. And it's trivially easy to turn them all on at the same time. Replacing them all would be very invasive surgery. While I could save energy that way, I also expect such changes would not increase the value of the house, nor have anything but a negative effect on reliability or ease of repair. For all of the modifications I've already done, I'm the only repair man. I've whittled our consumption down to less than 8000 kWhr per year. Probably terrible to an off-gridder like you.
These considerations make choosing a grid-tie inverter pretty complicated.

@ Brandnewb,
Our government is increasingly positive about wind energy.
Big issue in my city everywhere... Mary got it right, spikes are the only viable solution.

9 coils / 12 magnets.
According to the Bavaria Winding Diagram Table, 9 coils / 10 magnets would be a better combination.

Here is why I needed to overhaul the Azimuth drive to begin with.
Need to revers engineer the circuit, easy enough to repair as just the rectifier module that blew but over all circuit is functional still.
