[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 416968, member: 13632"] Cool Boss!! Make sure to let us know what you think! Broz, you made a point that has been lurking in my mind about the height of the bullet path in the air flow. I have done some research into wind power generation for a piece of ground I want to live on and you take a wind reading at ground level then run the anemometer up a pole there is a big increase in air velocity but the good thing is the air also stabilizes, it's not as gusty or rolling the higher you get. There are some numbers that are out there that I don't have with me but there is a general percentage per foot of high that the air velocity will gain. If you can get a wind mill 30ft or higher the available wind is much greater than at 15ft, our bullets are traveling through this. I used to think that I had "no wind conditions" but after running all over with a Kestrel I've concluded that there is no such thing in my area! [/QUOTE]
