- Blades construction
- Fiberglass Covered Ribs: Preferred option, the works are not complicated and the materials are accessible
- Foam wire cutting: Discarded, later covered with fiberglass or other
- With PVC pipes: Discarded, not streamlined
- Airfoil
- AH93W215: Preferable option, justification raised in technical development file
- Generator type
- DC motor: Low efficiency
- Axial Flux Alternator: Preferred Option
- Car alternator: Requires more speed or speed reducer
- Self start metthod
- Combined Savonius: Preferred Option
- Variable pitch: Medium complexity, fully mechanical, see this link
- Magnus Effect: Requires additional power and engines
- Mast type
- Truss tower: Made with angles, height between 2 and 3 meters, preferable option
- Tubular pole: It is discarded, so as not to depend on other structures or get a robust tubular, scarce in some locations
