Not unless you go twin. No space for a single turbine.

Here's another video shot in rather wetter conditions.

If the structure and retracts are strong enough, and if there is sufficient internal space for a couple of 40oz fuel tanks, it's about the right size airframe for a pair of Wren 44's (of which I have three). I'd expect a 44 Gold-powered ship to be heavier on take-off but lighter on landing. My main worry would be the risk of FOD ingestion with those low-slung intakes, and perhaps a mod to copy the full size plane's anti-FOD intake covers and louvres would be needed.

Also, I'm wondering why the flaps and LE droops weren't used on these flights as the take-off looked long, and the landing rather hairy.
