It’s been a while since I gave an overview of my current projects. So here’s a little update. 🙂 WinDIY_2 I’ve been working on the second version of WinDIY for […]
Read moreA few days ago the Hackaday Prize 2021 was announced. It became clear to me relatively quickly that I would like to try to submit a few of my projects […]
Read moreA few days ago I posted the building instructions for a project of mine: WinDIY a 3D printed wind turbine. Even if I still have some work ahead of me, […]
Read moreSince I’ve started two new PCB projects lately, I thought it was time to write about them again. genCtrl aka “NerdiskeratorController” One of the side projects that arose from WinDIY […]
Read moreOn a camping trip away from modern infrastructure, you quickly notice how much you have gotten used to the fact that electricity is somehow available anytime and anywhere. The stupid: […]
Read moreThe generator is held by a bracket in which a brake actuator is also integrated. In the following article you will find how you can proceed with its construction. Collect […]
Read moreSo that the construction articles for WinDIY do not become too extensive, I have divided the construction into several articles. A certain component such as the wing built. Of course, […]
Read moreThe WinDIY wind vane is mounted at the end of the device carrier. It should help to align the wind turbine always in the direction of the wind. How you […]
Read moreOne component that is supposed to make WinDIY more secure is the pitch actuator. It allows the wing’s angle of attack to be changed via a push rod. In case […]
Read moreThe turret supports the turbine and the superstructure on the standpipe so that it can be rotated 360°. A slip ring is also integrated in it to transfer the generated […]
Read moreThe main axis is the axis in which the wind turbine will later rotate. It must therefore bear the weight of the blades including the hub and at the same […]
Read moreAt one point or another I have probably already mentioned that it was important to me to be able to control WinDIY safely and to be able to limit its […]
Read moreAn important component of WinDIY are certainly the wings. They absorb the energy of the wind and convert it into a rotary motion, which in turn feeds the generator and […]
