Need recommendation for brushless conversion
Hi All,
I have a Kyosho Cessna 180 that I would like to convert to brushless and lipo for as cheap as possible (ie. HobbyCity) while still maintaining some quality (won't die on me after 5 flights). Here is the link:

I'm an experienced glow/gas flyer, but this is my first electric. I've done a ton of research on selecting power systems, but it seems like every manufacturer has their own naming schemas. Could someone suggest a cheap power system for me from HobbyCity?
Ideally, I'd like plenty of power while keeping things very light for slow flying characteristics at a park. Ie. When i hit the power it will climb to no end, but when i kill the power, it will float and fly slow like a Cessna 180 should (very low stall speed).
Here is some more information:
Weight w/ current brushed motor (haven't taken it off yet), brushed esc, and servos (no battery): 2 lbs (I would guess the brushed motor weighs about 8oz - it's a mabuchi 550)
Wingspan: 51' x 9' = 459 sq/in wing area
Thanks in advance!
