Default Beginner needs more power for Paramotor

Hello, i'm new to the board and would like to get a little deeper involved in the world of RC aircraft. I havevery little experience with RC aircraft, buthave a good understanding about flight dynamics. (I have an expired private pilots license, with aprox 100 hrs.)

Anyway, I just bought one of those cheap paramotors from ebay for 60bucks. It's junk, but the gondola is just what i need for a good build. In stock form, It lacks power and therefor flight time, but that's why i'm here. I plan on ordering one of those nice chutes from seabreeze, and upgrading theelectronics. However, Can anyone point me in the right direction for whatmotor/battery/ESC combowould give megood results. I'm guessing thisthing weighs 1.5lb.


Thanks!
