Taylor,

What is the flying weight that you think you'll end up with?

Remember you only need roughly 50 watts per pound in the class it looks like this plane falls within. The specs on the motor you gave are fine with roughly 100 watts and 9 or so ounces of thrust. But, try and estimate the flying weight first then go back and recalculate your needs.
