Default Need first gas engine for this plane

I'm looking for recommendations (or confirmation) on a good first gas engine for this plane (Magic Hand 73" Yak, 10lbs w/o engine):

So far I've found and like RCGF engines, and am not sure if a 26 would be enough power, or if the 45 would be too big (I have a Venus II 'pattern' plane with a 120AX and LOVE the rediculous amounts of power it has). Here are the engines I've found. I don't know anything about gas engines so let me know what you think, honestly, and if you have any other suggestions. I'm pretty new at this but my club president flies gas and said he'd help me out.
