The wind turbines we have here in town are 300ft tall poles with 100ft
blades. The center hub is only 20 feet below the top of the tower.

Because these aren't built yet, the image in my mind is for us to
stick up above the blades...meaning the windmill tower itself would be
higher than it normally would be, or we'd add an extension to make it
so. Well, maybe that's an unrealistic daydream.

if the blades are composite or fiberglass you may get through, but

room under
the blades to see what you want to see it should be great. A piece
of foam on
your board and lil rubber on antenna mounts should give you all the
vibration
dampening you will need. Don't forget to reground the antenna with a
wire.
There may be an unused tower too. Also over here there are standard
25g's
scattered around to transmit the controller information. Good Luck

I would think there would be an issue with the gigantic spinning
