Turbotron is a fan/jet turbine-themed Robotron in Power Rangers Beast Morphers. He is the minor antagonist of the episode "Gorilla Art".
History
Turbotron, along with Blaze and Roxy attacked the Rangers at a park where Smash was painting a mural (having been accidentally reprogrammed by Ravi to be obsessed with painting). While Blaze and Roxy kept the Rangers busy, Turbotron grabbed Smash and tried to fly away with him. Devon used his cheetah speed to rescue Smash, and told Ravi to take Smash back to base. Turbotron summoned Tronics to distract Devon, while he flew off in pursuit of Smash and Ravi, who'd taken refuge in a warehouse.
Turbotron activated his chest fan to blow Ravi away. Even with his gorilla strength, Ravi could barely hold onto the ground. However, Smash jumped in front of him, blocking Turbotron's attack, allowing the Blue Ranger to summon his Beast-X Blaster. Ravi disabled Turbotron's fan with his blaster before using the Beast-X Cannon to finish off the Robotron. TV STORY-Gorilla Art
