Depends on airframe weight! no need to double up on motors at approx 5.5oz each, going to 14 cells for flight!

If you could get the weight (servos included) but not batteries or motor, you may find that a geared speed 500/600 (aka RS540) type motor, swinging a larger prop, would be better.....

Not being negative, but for me, 2 motors means 2 props
