Definitely start with something quite small then, it's great to have ambition for such a large project so long as you temper it with common sense. Keep your big engine in mind, but actually build a small one first, you can use what you learn building a small engine to improve some parts of a larger one, and if you can attract some other interested people then once you're confident you can start on such a large engine then you may find it easier to get other team members/backers to support you.

Think about it this way, if you achieve a 400n thruster you're in the same range as the Draco thruster. That would be pretty fucking cool.
