Gas Turbine Startup Challenges

Voodoo attempts to start a gas turbine on their Sturgis bike using jet fuel and high-voltage batteries. The process is risky, requiring a precise air-fuel mixture to avoid explosions. Initial attempts result in smoke and oil leaks, leading to troubleshooting and sealing efforts with a new gasket. Despite challenges, Voodoo successfully activates the turbine, marking a significant achievement. The focus then shifts to completing additional components and preparing for further development.

What is the main risk involved in starting the gas turbine on the Sturgis bike?

• Battery failure

• Running out of fuel

• Explosion due to improper air-fuel mixture

• Overheating of the bike

What unexpected issue did Voodoo encounter during the startup?

• Smoke came out of the oil bag

• The oil bag caught fire

• The fuel tank leaked

• The bike wouldn't start

How did Voodoo attempt to fix the overheating and oil spilling issue?

• By adjusting the air-fuel mixture

• By using a new gasket

• By cooling down the engine

• By replacing the oil

What would have been the consequence if the turbine startup had failed?

• The bike would need a new engine

• The bike would be scrapped

• The bike would need a new battery

• The bike would require more fuel

What was Voodoo's reaction after the turbine became operational?

• Frustration

• Disappointment

• Indifference

• Excitement and determination

What tasks did Voodoo plan to complete after the turbine was operational?

• Testing the brakes

• Finishing the brackets and making the body

• Adjusting the air-fuel mixture

• Refueling the bike
