All looks fine check system Total weight . If you can afford more powerfull motor.  which can give u approx. 1.2KG per motor.
Motor Efficiency goes down with age so I suggest go for better motor.

yup - you could go for a 450 frame - motors, I think are perfect - lower Kv  - high stability - high efficiancy. :)

well I don't know what is the thrust of RCB motor, but a 850Kv 2830 should give more than enough thrust for a 450 quad, unless you tie a brick to the quad  ;D
