I'm not very familiar with the Super Cub, but I think a 20A ESC will be large enough.
Be sure you get a brushed ESC. Most ESCs today work only with brushless motors. You'll need one designed for brushed motors.

20A - 25A should be just fine for that 480 motor. Just make sure its a "brushed" ESC. 
If you plan to use ailerons later, be sure the ESC's "BEC" is at least 2A - 3A.

RE: ESC to use for a super Cup
A couple of years ago I converted my HZ Super Cub to 72MHz and used a [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXKBF4&P=7]C-25[/link]. It works perfectly.
