This kit contains the unassembled parts of the Advanced Wind Turbine Nacelle. Build your own wind turbine and experiment with wind power.
This kit enables a number of advanced experiments, especially with GENPack generator module. Try different gear ratios, blade designs, generators, and more, in a creative, hands-on inquiry into wind energy science. This nacelle also converts for conducting weightlifting experiments, making it a great option for studying mechanical and electrical energy.
Once built, this nacelle mounts on a wind turbine tower or on a standard 1-inch PVC pipe.
