3D - try something that will fly on 4S (about 3,000 mAh). Maybe a motor that will turn a 14x6 prop. Something maybe like the AXI 2826 series ... anything along those lines. For the ESC get about a 60A one capable of handling 5S at the least, as its more versatile later on. One thing you need to look out for on this plane is the batteries, make sure it can fit into the narrow fuse and give you the correct CG. Has to fit securely. Your motor will be lighter than a 40 sized 2C engine so you want the batts as far forward as possible. Make stand off mounts so move the motor forward, that would help with the CG.
