w3stie Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 I'm cross-posting this request from a car forum. If I wanted a wing of a specified profile and specified chord and width, what would be the best way of buying one? I am thinking something like one of the NACA profiles for which there is real engineering data available. Say 900 x 150mm. I would like alloy end plates or similar, allowing motorised adjustable angle of attack. I have absolutely no skills in fibreglass / carbon fibre / etc and so I'd prefer something able to be bought or made to the specs. Suppliers? Does anyone know where this person might start looking? Thanks, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhawk Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 These ones aren't rotor blades but I think they will suit your application. http://www.thebackshed.com/windmill/Trade/AlBladeOrders.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
