FIRST PART OF FOUR SHOWING HOW TO CONSTRUCT THE YAW BEARING, AUTOMATIC FURLING MECHANISM, AND THE MOUNTING OF THE ALTERNATOR/ MOTOR CONVERSION. PLUS HOW TO FIND THE WIRES FOR USE IN THIS PROJECT. THE FULLEXPLAINATION OF HOW THE FURLING MECHANISM WORKS, AND WHY THE ALTERNATOR GETS MOUNTED A LITTLE TO THE SIDE. WHERE THE WIRES GO. RECTIFICATION TIPS IN PART. THE WHOLE CEILING FAN MOTOR CONVERSION AND CONSTRUCTION WILL BE FULLY EXPLAINED IN THE NEXT VIDEO, WITH WIRING OPTIONS FOR YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS. AND OF COURSE HOW TO TELL HOW MANY MAGNET POSSITIONS,AND WHERE TO PLACE THEM. PLUS HOW TO RUN THE WIRES, AND HOW TO RECTIFY THE TWO SETS OF COILS INTO A TWO WIRE DC SYSTEM. THE NEXT VIDEO IS PROP CARVING AND BALLANCING, HOW TO FIGURE OUT THE ANGLES. I MAKE IT SEEM EASY. ITS A LOT OF FUN TO SEE YOUR WORK TAKE OFF FOR THE FIRST TIME. OH YA IN THIS VIDEO YOU GET TO SEE THE WIND TALK BACK WHEN I MENTION IT. I HAVE TO LAUGH WHEN I WATCH IT. THE WIND AND I HAVE TOO MANY COINCIDENCES TO DOUBT FRIENDSHIP. MUDDY MUDDY MUDD MANN

vawt.tk or wrapwind.com vawt vertical axis wind turbine hawt green.
-first i lifted the silo 3 feet
-i tested the propset with blades extended
-i increased the gap bettween the prop and the FAWT bottom
-i increased the gap bettween the prop tips and the wall that covers the prop
-i tested the carbon fiber blades
-all testing was done at approx 15 kmh winds.and maybe gusts of wind at 20kmh
FAWT SILO is a fixed axis wind turbine but it uses lift based p-rops, i have playing with this idea for few years now in my head, i decided to give it a go, it is at the begining stages and there alot of mods still to be done. the idea is to take the air from horizontal to a downward direction and at the same time is to totally hide the proppeler from view.
i am hoping and predicting that it will be 60% effecient VS the HAWT.
the first step is to build one 4 times as big where the top and bottom defflectors will be 4 feet in width.
i hope you enjoy this video and not shoot me down as much. think diffrent……
