a bit complex. perhaps making collapable pockets like mini parachutes that collapce once the air pressure has disapated. may be simpler. think of a pouch. maybe.
yes ive seen those i think a negative pressure effeect like a sail may be possible with that,the actual design i may use has a wing effect but the blade act as this vid shows but on a hub as a squirl cage configuration,in all truth i dont like this concept much the energy t omove the blades is mor then i thought it would be
a cam that allows consistant proper positioning is the only way this will work
eradic emediat movement is killing the concept a gragual slow to react cam assembly may make this workable magnets would cause knocking just as the springs and partial cam set up im using now,,but thanks for the comment
Have you thought of useing magnets to activate blades, mounted to the rail so you could adjust the timeing, other magnets could be put on fan tubes orented so they work right, this would reduce the friction, and use the force...
Sometimes 1 + 1 = 3 . May the force be with you... Gary
looking good man , get you one of those stepper motors out of an old old printer and put on that thing and you'll have you a small battery charger ......
yep i want to build one with a total cam set up the spring arrangement was a short cut, i think a 2 ft design would do very well with stepper motors i could align several of them using scanner belt
and the steppers in scanners or the pile of printers i have ,printers the older models have big steppers in them i need to asertain if its ac or dc a stepper generates i would amagin dc because led's are dc
did you cover the middle holes in the disks?

hmmm spring idea didn't work too well... but
llewgnal hase a nice idea... perhaps that might work :) keep up the good work :)

All the stepper motors I have produce AC when used as a generator...I have one i can light a light bulb with if I turn it with a drill..

where did you get the big stepper that lights the light???
