KidWind Motor Mount

Being lightweight, stiff and easy to work, Balsa makes an ideal material for making experimental wind turbine blades.

Get higher RPMs and ultimately more power by using the these highly optimised 8-inch diameter wind turbine blades.

The 10 Pack Basic Turbine Building Parts kit includes 10 KidWind Hubs, 10 wind turbine generators, and 250 dowels, all in one package.

Would you like to build your own wind turbine? Well you can with this kit containing all the individual parts of the Advanced Wind Turbine Nacelle.

Use this rugged, affordable mini wind turbine to illustrate the power of wind. This easily assembled turbine that produces enough power to light an LED bulb and play a tune. A small domestic fan will produces enough draught to demonstrate this highly efficient turbine. The basic kit just comes with Red Blade Set. The MINI Wind Turbine with Blade Design comes with a Wind Turbine Hub, a Digital Multimeter, 25 1/4" x 5" Dowels and a 3" x 12" Chipboard Sheet to allow students to perform basic blade experiments. More dowels and chipboad can be purchased as and when required. This kit is also available in the KidWind MINI Wind Turbine with Blade Design.

The simpleGEN is an easy-to-build AC generator that allows students to explore the basics of electrical generator design. Your students can now investigate the fundamentals of electrical generator design with an easy to build AC generator. The KidWind SimpleGEN enables you to demonstrate Faraday's law, light LEDs, and perform experiments that explore how coils, magnets, and rotation affect electrical generation. Convert your generator into a simple motor just by making a few quick alterations whilst also allowing for greater exploration. Further still, you can convert your simpleGEN into a wind turbine nacelle. The simpleGEN classroom pack has enough materials to build 10 generators and includes three digital multimeters. This Kit is also available in the KidWind simpleGEN Classroom Pack.

This smooth running generator delivers high power output at relatively low revs and is the primary generator for wind turbine experiments. It is also the standard generator used in the KidWind Challenge competition events.
