I'm glad you posted this, Steve, as I am equipping a slightly larger Cessna L19 Bird Dog with a very similar power system. My 108" span L19 is 15 lbs without the power , so I expect to be about 18 - 20 lbs RTF, and I have bought the 63-64 A (280 KV), which I intend to run with the Turnigy 110A HV esc, on 6S 5000mah Zippy cells. I have the power bits, but have not yet hooked it all up to test. I'm hoping to turn a 20 x 10 to 24 x 12 prop at about 6000 rpm with this setup. Your model certainly has more than scale power. I'll be delighted if mine flies even close to that well.
Brad.
