Ha!
Unlikely!

- The blast - if it doesn't melt the model - is likely to cause flutter. By the time the model escapes the blast, the flutter is likely to tear the model apart before you gain any flying control of it.

NOT a nice prospect...

O R - using the turbofan as main power actually means taping the puny little model onto the engine's outer housing, then trying to fly an engine with NO effective aerodynamic surfaces. Lotsaluk!!!

Sounds like fun! DO get a UTube of it. It is likely to be as much fun as the washing machine video, and just as sensible.

(I do like way-out ideas, but want to be a safe distance from things like this.)

It might be a bit nose heavy.

Built one when I was about 13. This was my first built up wing. Had a wen mac o74 on it. It was also my first wedge tank.

What a cute little plane!
Is there such a thing as a big Jumpin Bean, say 35 size?

AFAIK, Li'l Jumping Bean was based on Carl Goldberg's 42" span Shoestring Stunter.

Here's a link to that. http://www.outerzone.co.uk/plan_details.asp?ID=6873
