I am currently assembling a 3d profile pitts biplane with an all up flying weight of 14 oz. I have never had to pick out what power package to put in my planes as they are all rtf. This one recommends a 370 geared and brushed motor but I want brushless. I need recommendations for motor battery and esc. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

For a 15oz 3d plane...you need 150+ watts. Find a motor's max amps and multiply it by 11.1V (3s1p Lipo). A Park 450 and a 18A+ ESC are about the perfect match for 14-16oz 3D planes for unlimited power.
