well, the real question is how much does it weigh? the specs for the gas one says 2.2 lbs. Most of that would be for the motor, fuel tank, and support/reinforcement for gas power and weight. If you are willing to spring for (or if you already have) a brushless/lithium system, I would say it could fly quite well, its not all that different than the GWS flying pizza or ladybug, probably just a bit heavier.

The Pizza Boxes are a lot of fun...........what kind of AUW (all up weight) are you looking at?
If you're in the 9 - 15ish ounce weight range then the Himax 2015-4100 should do the trick. If your'e over that up to about 22 ounces then the Himax 2025-4200 will work.
There are other power plants out there that would work as well but these are the two that I use and am familiar with.
Good luck!
