I think you might do some more reading in this section. All the motors you picked are tiny. Ignoring the whole KV thing you are looking at stuff for "small models weighing up to 12 oz" when the Cub weighs: Flying Weight: 25 oz (709 g).
You need to look for something suitable for at LEAST that weight AND has a KV~1000 for a direct drive outrunner. Expect to pay 2-4x what you are looking at. Some people are doing OK with some of the cheap towerpros but be aware that they have small soft shafts that bend even with bad landings and prop strikes. Get a bunch of shafts if you buy one.
