An improved, self directing, horizontal axis wind turbine for conversion of wind energy into useful work including generation of electricity. The said wind turbine is comprised of a plurality of two or more blades mounted on a rotor assembly rotating in a conical path about the horizontal rotor shaft downwind from the support tower. The rotation of the blades caused by the wind is transmitted to an electric generator to produce electricity. The embodiment of the said wind turbine and the electric generator along with the attachments including the generator housing are mounted on the horizonta l section of a vertical shaft which is supported with bearing assemblies on the support tower. The said turbine and the vertical section of the shaft freely rotating around the support tower in response to the direction of the wind.
