Yup - but there would be similar problem like the one mentioned with the Toyota   More seriously - the model has 23 kg - the real thing some 260 000 kg. the real thing 84 000 lbf - i.e. the model should be around 7-10 lbf. or 30 N. Looking at existing models and engines there over the NET they need probably a bit more.... |

Well, they're smart engineers. I'm sure they can build their own little RC engines for this model.
There are many examples of crude homebuilt RC engines on youtube. Here's a pretty nice one.
