A damping assembly is described herein for use in a device having moving aerodynamic surfaces including a first component comprising a back iron and at least one permanent magnet, said at least one permanent magnet providing a first magnetic field, and an electrically conductive second component, said electrically conductive second component and said first component being positioned coaxially about a central axis with said at least one permanent magnet being positioned between said back iron of said first component and said electrically conductive second component; the assembly further comprising means for rotating one or both of said at least one permanent magnet of said first component and said electrically conductive second component about said central axis to cause relative rotational movement between the at least one permanent magnet and second component, to thereby induce a variable magnetic flux in said electrically conductive second component and cause eddy currents to develop.
