Brushless equivalent to a 550 can motor

[BalsaBringer]

Hello! I recently acquired a Cermark Phoenix 2 meter ARF that came with a 550 type can motor, I would like to swap it for a brushless system, has anyone done this or can you offer advice on a replacement set-up?

Hello! I recently acquired a Cermark Phoenix 2 meter ARF that came with a 550 type can motor, I would like to swap it for a brushless system, has anyone done this or can you offer advice on a replacement set-up?

This should do:
Motor: https://www.readymaderc.com/product...1mq1sJscFN9tSm_PY2WScuK1NJM_YUr4aAt2qEALw_wcB

ESC: https://www.readymaderc.com/product...kCLtA6pun1kDH-x90gvbp7b5OO_hm03MaAoeTEALw_wcB

Prop: https://alofthobbies.com/products/aeronaut-cam-9x6-23x15-cm?_pos=1&_psq=9-x6&_ss=e&_v=1.0

I'd recommend ditching the plastic spinner assembly on any decently performing powered glider. If I could know the existing spinner diameter, I could recommend a nice alloy assembly.

Hello! Thank you for the assistance sir, here are some pictures of the glider. The plastic spinner/folding prop measures 46mm.

Here is what you need:
