Spins on 2 different shafts and has a working dual planetary gearbox!!
Measures about 8.5 in (22cm) long.
About:
This is a simplified TurboProp engine based off of the Pratt and Whitney Pt6 engine. It feature dual planetary gears to reduce rpm to the propeller. It has the compressor stages, stator vanes, combustions stage, turbine stages, as well as two seperate shafts to transmit the power.
Materials needed :
- It requires 2 of the N20 reduction gear motors, the makers electronics bundle, and 2mm*8mm self tapping screws. These can be found in the links below for the more exact specifications.
- Allen key for the 2mm screws, should have came with the printer.
- No need for superglue, but can be used if desired
- Tweezers or similar can be helpful for support removal
Supports:
I used these settings for this model. 
On the main shell (front and back) as well as the combustion , the embedded rings where the stator vanes and planetary gears sit have overhangs on them, when it prints, it leaves a couple lines of slack since there is not support, I have accounted for this and they can just be ripped or cut off. The peices will fit perfectly fine without support there. Picture below of where I am mentioning. (blue are the overhanges) 
Assembly instructions:
Caution: Would NOT recommend any kind of conductive filament, it may short the circut.
