Setting Up Wind Power on Your Contraption
Connecting Wind to Rotation
This mod converts simulated wind into rotational kinetic force for Create machines. First, ensure a compatible weather system (Weather2 or ProtoManly's Weather) is installed—the mod automatically detects which one is active.
Build a turbine on a mobile contraption using the custom rotor blocks. The turbine will rotate to face incoming wind direction. Use the control angle servos to adjust rotor blade pitch for optimal torque output. Connect the turbine's rotation to your machine network via Create's standard kinetic components.
Monitor wind speed and RPM using the kinetic stats display. The custom
control table block generates binary redstone signals linked to your servo adjustments, letting you automate blade angle changes based on wind conditions. Works with Sable airships and Create Aeronautics for flying builds.
