David - They emailed me and said they'd been keeping the development of this turbine pretty quiet, but they plan to have an unveiling of the product later this month. Right now this is the only one in existence, and you're right - it's totally a new approach. They said they were going to post the YouTube videos and info, so I decided to pull my video because it had obviously become moot!  I will email back the engineer and ask him to monitor this thread.

I stopped by the farmer's house and got some information on the turbine.  I did some research and contacted the company that is building it.  I've updated the YouTube video info based on what they told me.

Ken, you sound like you know your stuff.  Question: Giromill = fixed pitch blades and Cycloturbine = pitch of airfoils change relative to wind direction and rotation position?
Thx!

Has anybody seen one of these?  I'm wondering where I can get some info and if this is an available product.  This one seemed to run at a much higher TSR compared to other VAWTs, and has a larger swept area.
