Engine system
 
Hello,
I'm Amir and i'm and aerodynamics engineer for the IAI. For the last year or so I've been working (for myself, not for the IAI) on a RC Dassult super Mystre, the same plane i was flying in the Yom kippur war. The plans were sent to a contractor who built them (fuselage, wings, tail and electronic landing gear), the plane is about 5 feet long and has a six feet wings. The payload is one canon T50 camera fixed to the inside of the tail.
My questions are as following:
1. What kind of thrust system should i use? jet or jet-like is my pick.
My idea is to split the intake (like the real thing) to two electric ducted fan systems.
2. What kind of airstrip i need?
3. Just how loud is that kind of engine?

English isn't my main language, I'm sorry for any grammer mistakes.
Thank you very much, Amir.

Since no one else has responded, I will.....
I had to do a search to get an idea of what a Dassault Super Mystere looked like.
In my opinion, a model the size you specified would probably fly on a 12 lb turbine. For sure it would go well with a 16-18 lb turbine.
