Hello, I hope this is OK to share..
This is a video of me testing my new experimental dual rotor wind turbine for the first time,I cut it down to 16 minutes I had hours of footage just from yesterday.
Verdict....
Due to something that I need to improve
It took the high winds like an absolute champ, this is the only wind turbine I have ever made that I will gladly leave up in 40/60/80mph winds.
It needs improving no doubt and needs 20mph + to get it going but is as storm proof as they come , this is primarily due to the chain always having a slight drag which will stop over speeding.
I put some early conclusions at the end of the video , today I am taking it down to make some improvements and we have the back end of a storm coming tomorrow where we will have 60-70mph sustained gusts, so please stay tuned my video's, they will get better , also I answer some questions that some people had about the tail, any comments are welcome.
Big shout to anyone climbing towers and getting stuff done , Gavin.
