My immediate reaction is "Love the passion and innovation go for it", but a little part of me can't help thinking with Billionaires like Bezos spending their billions to get into space while paying their workers **** wages and forcing them to piss into bottles, and all this research going into speedsailing, that there are just a few more crucial issues that the world needs to solve right now than the best toys for the rich? Maybe you could argue that harnessing wind-power is research that the world needs to solve one of its problems.
