Hi Scott,

You can find a version of FAST v7.00.01a-bjj with AeroDyn v13.00.00a-bjj compiled with the GH Bladed-style DLL interface here: [wind.nrel.gov/public/jjonkman/FA … erface.exe](http://wind.nrel.gov/public/jjonkman/FAST/FAST_v7.00.01a-bjj_AeroDyn_v13.00.00a-bjj_BladedDLLInterface.exe). Or if you’re adventurous, you can recompile FAST yourself using the guidance found in the FAST User’s Guide.

Best regards,

There is some text in the Compile\_FAST.bat file that tells you how to create them:

`REM NOTE: UserSubs_forBladedDLL.f90 is a copy of UserSubs.f90 with SUBROUTINES UserHSSBr() and UserYawCont() commented out
REM UserVSCont_KP_forBladedDLL.f90 is a copy of UserVSCont_KP.f90 with SUBROUTINE UserVSCont() commented out
