Prototype Horizontal Axis Turbine

I did testing on this 2/15/07. Not much wind that day around 1-5 knots, the wind turbine had issues upon issues with a poor gear box at the time. I just did this to observe the turbine and see what the matter was. The airfoils had to be rebalanced and shaved a bit more since one of them was .035 grams off from the rest. Which, took awhile until I found out. So don't take this as complete turbine, hence the name of the title.
