Looking at what else is out there, we're likely to be underpowered but given the budget it's been a case of making do and mending. Would be a whole lot easier to build an airframe for my son, for instance, in which case it would be two-thirds the size and with a comfortable surplus of thrust. As it is the final cut (above) itself represents only half the size of a full-scale 'phone-booth', which would be of the order of two metres in height.
At this stage of the game however it's a question of readying whatever we've got to bring.
