can I give your project a sizeable leap forward?
most of the small gas turbine engines are actually dreadfully
primitive and not worth the effort at building except as curios.

the very best of the crop is produced in Perth West Aust.  by Turbine
Engine Technologies. The guy concerned, Chris Monkley,  is a go getter
with the financials to carry off his projects correctly. He
demonstrated to me a gas turbine about 5" dia and about a foot long
that had a fadec control unit. started absolutely reliably and
delivered something like 14lbs thrust. To get them right he has GE
cast the turbine rotors for him in the correct alloys as a mono
crystal investment casting. He retails the unit for $aus4,400.
If you want to play with small gas turbine engines I'd suggest
starting with Chris's unit. It is immaculately put together.
