Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Project Aeolus V2.2

DescriptionPDF

This is the third version of my vertical axis wind turbine. (V.A.W.T.) 

This third version is completely inspired and modified by the Aeolus project. 

In the future I will publish other changes after carrying out the first tests of operation in wind.

The project requires many hours of printing, during printing I always used supports.

I will add more photos with support as soon as possible.

Try printing this and let me know if you have any suggestions for improving the project !
