Wind turbine

Our first and best turbine.
Mass: 64.37
Height: 20in.
Energy: 4.006 W
Power: 9.8 M/S
1. Our turbine the only really one that worked was made out of a blue manilla folder.
2. The winner had plastic rulers that they melted to fold in so they could catch the wind, and others just werent as strong but they attempted to fold the insides in.
3.  Our best attemp was 9, but it only raised halfway.
4.  Create a unbalanced wing so that there is more pressure underneath than on top
5. It would catch the air using bernoullis principle.
6. Both had a bend in them to catch the air causing them to turn.
