Not much info here but I used amy drill to spin the motors and took the voltage of of 2 leads. I used my Fluke 112 and set it to record ACV. They are all Delta winds but I spun them both ways to make sure and this is what I got.

7700Kv .045V
6000Kv? .059V
5300Kv 30mm can .062V
4436Kv .068V

This is only about 600rpm but I don't have anything faster at the moment. I am going to start gathering parts. I think I am going to make the blades out of fiberglass for weight savings. It's called a Savonius type.

This is a pic of the type I want to make:
