Might want to just tune down your concept of decent thrust. For comparison, a NASA MMU has a total acceleration of about 0.009G with a total burn duration of 450s for a total delta-V of about 40 meters/sec. You might want a tad more performance, but reaching a safe walking speed of 1 yard per second takes 0.09s at 1G, so 0.05G is probably plenty.
