Our “generator worship” relatively to existing small wind turbine is mainly driven by the development in the electricity markets. In today’s electricity market electricity is worthless when it’s very windy. Secondly export of electricity is generally not rewarded. Even off-grid people now has the idea that they want to be self-sufficient 
I’m not particularly fond of automated pitch control, but for our specific design choices it seems to be the best compromise.
I don’t see any alternative to “pre-orders”. That’s what investors want these days…
The Wind Catcher name was chosen for our first product name as it’s meant to appeal to a wide audience that is not wind nerds. I agree it’s a bit might be a bit odd for a 50MW offshore monster, less odd for 220W portable wind turbine.
We started by making and selling +200 Wind Catchers of a very similar design to our TWT-11, such that small issues like the overhang would not catch us by surprise.
Time will tell how it pans out. I certainly think we owe it to ourselves and “everyone” to try
