Those are proper miniaturised jet turbines, which are designed and used for certain radio controlled aircraft. You can see the heat shields near the turbine outlets, attached under the wing's trailing edge.
Those turbines are around £2k a pop, depending which turbine one goes for.

Are you sure because those turbines look pretty big for RC planes.

@ axxxr,
Most definitely sir. Do a few googles and all will be revealed.

Or check out the UK's RC Jet International magazine, available at some WH Smiths and R/C shops.

Check out Johnex's link too. (in German, but you can follow some links in there.)
