In this video we are going to design and built a verticle axis wind generator using an old hoverboard motor.

Previously we have built a horizontal axis wind generator using a brushless outrunner motor from an old hoverboard. The project was a sucess and we were able to get 150 watts of power with wind speed of 7m/s.

Later we came across another intresting design that offers rotation arround the verticle axis. The output power was way more than what we have expected for such a small generator.

So in this video we are going to design and built a verticle axis wind generator using a permanent magnet brushless outrunner motor from an old hoverboard. The rest of the turbine is built using comonly avliable hardware such as PVC pipe and metal tubing.
The schematic, gerber files and the list of components for the rectifier circuit is avlaible here:drive.google.com/open?id=13J0mqBVomIx8cV9ERI-wQ…
