"My VAWT, there are many like it, But this one is Mine"

Hello everyone, I am back!
i just want to inform every one that i have restarted my VAWT project with a twist.

after creating my Column VAWT design, i realized that i could not control the shake.
you will have to watch vid Column R 20 to see the issue.
shortley after, i did loose control of it, i tried to rebuild it, but still same issue.

SO, i sat on it, and I had many though experiments unitll i got it.
i created a vawt that changes shape based on air speed.
it will compress so the blades will tilt away from the wind to slow it down.
I tapered the blades to maximize efficiency,

the way it shift from the wind is to have the lower disc rise up.
i am in the process of controlling the rise of disc.
3 options to control the rise and the rise is based on the future PMG VS RPM.
option#1 weight on lower disc
option#2 springs on my tube arms (you wll see it in vids)
option#3 a twist in my tube arms, so it struggles to go up but easy to drop, so far i am using the twist.
please go here and give me your support.
it took over 36 blade design to come up with the correct one.
I cant seem to be able to stop, i know by know i could have bought myself a very well done turbine, but where is the fun in that!, besides, i know most of you likes to see different approaches.

please see my Quantum2020 VAWT

regards
Sam

I note its unloaded.

As per all other similar designs, you'll likely never see much more than a few watts out of it, unless there's a hurricane blowing through .... you might see a 20w peak before automatic disassembly occurs.

my calculation based on blade area i should get 100 watt to 800watt @ 180 rpm and up starting at 15kmh wind

i sure have to still prove it to you, i totally respect your opinion, just keep in mind that this is a lift not a drag system.
