It sounds like it's electric powered. As much as I love brushless motors, I think a model of that scale and quality would have deserved actual jet engines.
Tyler Perry owns the airplane and the property. He has said that he does not fly turbines due to the fire risk in a crash. His property is surrounded by forest. If he were to cause a forest fire, the negative publicity could have a major impact on his career.

That property is gorgeous and Tyler pulls out all the stops for his builds. That channel (Ramy RC) has quite a few of them.
AFAIK the only existing small jet engines for RC planes are much too small for this one.
They've been scaling these things up over the past decade. The JetCat P1000 can exceed 200lbs of thrust.
What they really for this kind of build are RC turbofans, which are extremely uncommon. This thing puts out over 300lbs of thrust at full throttle:

There are certainly turbines available that could power the model. He chooses not to.
My first thought was, "You could probably fit a couple of toddlers in there with cute little pilot uniforms."
...And here I am scouting for remote meadows to fly my 7 and 10 inch prop fpv drones...
