Wind Turbine

This mission focuses on sustainable energy with wind turbines. I based the functions off of actual

wind turbines. In order for wind turbines to produce the maximum amount of power they need to be adjusted to the wind properly. They do this by adjusting the pitch of the blades and the yaw (rotation) of the nacelle (top section) of the the wind turbine so that it is facing the wind at the correct angle to produce maximum efficiency.

The points that I designated for this mission are:

5 points for adjusting the blade pitch
20 points for adjusting the yaw into green (15 partial, 10 orange, 0 red or out)
15 points for spinning the blade
+5 bonus points if spinning at the end of the match.

Unfortunately, my video was to long to upload to Ideas, so here is the link:
