If I recall correctly, one pound of thrust = one HP at around 325 knots.
That's quite a bit of 'at speed'.

That sounds about right, I didn't have the figures in front of me. Even so
if you slowed it down to 150-200 you'd still have a fairly potent engine
for the weight. And it still would be a blast!
