The hand brake is with cable in the tower so it is possible to attack the variable pitch by hand

this system is also motor driven so at a pre calculated rpm the motor starts also to pull the cable and the system will come to a full stop

I made a drawing of this idea for years ago and now this company has it in production
:nuts:

in normal operation the pitch will work on the force of spin
as we know it from the windspot and the enair

but as a fail safe the brake motor comes in and pulls the cable , and also we wil sync this with the dumpload
