Default RE: GWS A-10

You will need two ESCs! I would suggest Medusa 5300 12mm motors (not the cheapest but the best).

If you have the 3-blade EDF 50 you can get 6oz thrust from 7.4A/79W to each motor! A Medusa 4000 will get you 4oz from 4.15A/44W.

If you have the 5-blade EDF 50 only the Medusa 4000 is safe for 3s use - 4.6oz from 5.15A/55W.

Since I doubt you were getting more than 2.5oz from IPS motors this is a big step up in performance.

I can't recommend Feigao 12mm motors, but it is possible that the Hyperion 12mm motors are a bit better. None match the Medusa.
