I found plans of Cri Cri airplane , one of the smallest airplane in the world.

I found that their engines could be model gas turbines .

Can I change compressor and turbine wheels with tesla discs ?

I even want single disc for compressor and single disc for turbine .

Can it be done , is there an example ?

Thank you ,
