Scale engine sound generator

Hi everyone in this forum, this is my first post, so forgive me if it's a daft question and in the wrong area.

I'm new to modeling and would love to build a decent scale model WW1 plane.
However, the flying scale models I have seen are (to my mind) let down by the sound of the engine (even 4 strokes sound to me more like a moped !)

I have searched the net for an aero-engine synthesizer to fit to a scale model but no joy so far. -Has anyone ever produced a small & light enough loudspeaker system to fit in a 'plane ??

My idea would be to "sample" a real engine, run it from an audio chip & sync the frequency to the motor revs.

Has anyone tried it ??

Any sugestions, ideas, greatfully received
Ray
