thats hot!!

they can actually build those model turbine engines from parts from turbochargers.
 
Bad camera work, sloppy flying, terrible editing, and about the only thing that "could" be used from a turbo is the compressor wheel. But it's not used. In fact, every ~$3500 turbine engine is hand crafted from purpose- designed parts. No truck turbo jet engines here.

and check out http://www.gtba.co.uk/homebuilt_engine_designs.htm for some different types/designs of homemade gas turbines.
 
i think you have to build them your self. i can only find propeller planes that are sold commercially.
