Looks great !

What is the weight of the kit alone ?

What is the wingspan ? Or, what is the equivalent nitro size ?

Please do post a picture of the underside of the wings.

If you mean this Motor:
http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=3887

Then the Motor is good selection and use it with 60Amp ESC and 11x7 or 12x6 Prop. Use the rear (Wire side ) end to mount the motor on the bulk head and use the large Prop adapter which bolts to the Bell (dont put an adapter on the Shaft).

If you have other motor, please send the link as the name is not an exact match in the site.
