I would like to get some wind data, seems the weather people
don't report the wind speeds much any more, and my
location is much different from the local weather office.
Instead of buying one of those cup like wind speed
meters, and a tail like direction indicator, I was wondering
about adding a speed meter and direction device to
one of those garden type 6' tall windmills. I think
it could look nice and provide some data at the same time.
I realize that the blade type they have are not linear,
but could a calibration chart be programmed into the display ?
Was thinking about mounting this on the roof of the shop.
tnx
