It will fly if you keep it light and simple, I have flown a few with old P-120 turbines and they have plenty of power for scale flying. As always to fly true scale without the energy of the full scale you need lots of power. If you fly a little faster you can still fly reasonable size loops using part energy, part wing and part power! Flight times will be 8 minutes because of high power use.
