Robert Murray Smith does some good videos, even if he does seem like he's done a load of amphetamines before recording

Indeed, his videos are interesting in that he shows a lot. His laughing makes me impatient sometimes. Also I wonder with an airturbine like that, how does it perform under load. And a flywheel attached would be interesting
Yeah, it'd be great if he attached a dynamo so we could see how it performs when it's actually driving something, but still, it looks awesome.
I found his laugh charming.
He reminds me a little of Stanley Unwin
Preview object looks like a round Stevenson screen
This is a very cool idea. I agree with others here, needs a flywheel and would be interesting to see how it performs when you put load on it (ie dynamo). Would be interesting to see some kind of mechanism to rotate the back blocking plate with the wind direction to optimize for boat use
