Did you lower the turbine or try to do anything with it? I don't have a lot of experience with these but I did have one customer with the exact same turbine, and one time the tail got stuck in the furled position. I banged on the tower a bit and jiggled the
guy wires vigorously and it came loose and straightened out, and it hasn't had any problems since. That time there was nothing wrong with it... it just got a little stuck. That may be totally different but it might give you a glimmer of hope.</div>

I have a client with an older Whisper 200, 1 kW wind turbine. We didn't install this but have taken over the site maintenance since the original installer left town. The site recently experienced prolonged relatively high winds for 3-4 days. After that,
he went out and noticed that the tail is stuck in the side-furling position.</div>

I'm not very familiar with this turbine or wind turbines in general, but looking at a manual, it looks like we may need a new bushing or maybe even a new casting. Does anyone have any idea where I could order parts for this turbine? Is there a suitable
replacement turbine we should be looking at? At last check, the turbine was putting out good power and passed all electrical checks.</div>
