Hii, I’m trying to make an RC model of F15(that’s my first time making own RC)

Which motors should I use?

don't you think even for an RC fag thats a little sparse info to know that
like scale and weight and propellant / energy storage and shit?

it just carries one missile?

Just buy a foam RTF one like everyone else

It's an experimental flight. That's the anti satellite missile from the 80s. The f15 goes into afterburner and shoots it at mach2 and then it takes off and blows up a satellite.

Sorry, forgot to mention

Ideal wingspan is about 50-60 cm

I recommend the to use simple cartoon based or some lightweight metal and use impellers (propellers instead of motors). for communication just use FlySky

How about you try an easy plane before you skip off to do a hard one? Get a foamie kit or something first so you can learn a few things and repair when you screw up the first couple of tries. Believe me when I say that watching it crash is crushing. Being able to fix it with a hot glue gun is what will keep you from just giving up.

F15 never lost a single air-to-air engagement

ok with all my research the best one i have found based on op's parameters is this one.

Update: I actually find what I can use

Also about skipping to the hard part: my plan is to get whatever I need for F15, make simple flyable thing, and rebuild it

You're supposed to start on slower, simpler, and more durable designs so you become familiar with flight dynamics. Starting with higher speed planforms just means you're going to crash a lot more and earlier and get discouraged.
Buy something RTF with a high wing and slow top speed and fly that for a few months first.

Hope you're ready to completely rebuild it then. That's not going to be a few breakages, but complete destruction. You were warned.
