We phased one of the wings 90 degrees from the other to see the effects on the motion. It seems the bottom wing is acting like a wind vane as the top wing is in a "stalled" or no lift condition. The airfoils used in this test are based on the NACA0012 design, which is employed on several vertical wind mill systems. Winds were around 15mph at this time.
