this is my first model cycloidale wind turbine
with this model ,I have can raise 217 kg to the ground ,to make that I have placed a pulley from 7cm under the axis from the rotor and with another pulley and one cord ,the turbine have raise 217 kg at 2.5 meter hight in 3 sec.
the dimention is 192 cm diameter and the five blades is 84 cm large /96 cm hight.
the problem for a good test is that I don't know how much wind there was.
