Hello, its bin a long time. 
Finely the wind direction scoops are mounted on the V.A.W.T. 
Now we have to make the rotor and a cool generator what fits perfectly by the V.A.W.T. 
I was building on a new generator design whit the same winding principle. Only it will become a big ring. 
A ring generator? I don’t know when this project will be finished? In 2 weeks I am going to Brazil for 6 months to create some energy systems in the middle of no ware on top of a mountain for generating energy for a few homes. 
So, my next movies or updates will com from Brazil. 
Brazil??.... Yeehaaa Party Time!!  |

great work ! are you going to spin the coils or the magnets? |

Hi, congratulations and safe journey. What is the stator resistance? just because your a GURU or forum administer does not mean your always correct :) |

Hi, the coil ring stays stationary and the magnates are going to spin. The rotor will come on the inside. I don’t know the resistance, its already in the container for shipment….. forgot to measure?? 
But I have made a smaller one for testing!
It’s a Ring generator, diameter 45 cm , 6 phases 2,2 ohms a phase But connected to 3 phases with 4,4 ohms a phase. Wire used 0,7mm 
The coil is embedded in polyether. I also embedded a temperature sensor for further testing. I have made a quick test movie of the ring generator, its on YouTube. Ring generator I will try to make a descent test bench for descent testing before I’m of to Brazil.
Cheers to you all! Brian Energy Creator |

your ring stator is beautiful work Brian. that's a very nice casting. i have been planing one for this winter . but it will be two phase with overlapping coils. and a mag rotor on both the outside and inside. consider winding a layer of silicone steel wire around the outside of your stator to give a flux return path it should pull the flux through the copper. |
