ABSTRACT The present invention relates to a wind powered generator mechanical arrangement and control. The generator comprises a propeller having a directly coupled rotating field comprising permanent magnets mounted in a rotating housing. The stationary armature in turn is supported on a suitable tower support and is mounted to permit it to rotate about a vertical axis to permit the propeller to be properly oriented with respect to the direction of the wind. On the opposite side of the vertical mounting axis from the propeller a suitable control and counterweight arm is mounted providing a balanced support for the generator. A vane or tail is mounted for pivotal movement about a vertical axis relative to the counterweight arm, and its angle relative to the counterweight arm and relative to the axis of rotation of the propeller can be varied in response to certain parameters that are being sensed. The vane controls the position of the propeller axis relative to the wind and thus may prevent excessive current from being generated; prevent overspeed; prevent overcharging storage batteries, if such are being used, and prevent the unit from providing excessive charging current.
