I'm using an E-Flite Park 370/4100 Kv motor with a Castle Creations Thunderbird 18 ESC. Works pretty well. You may also want to consider offerings from Great Planes; I've had pretty good success with their stuff too. These options seem to be the best value around.
Good luck!

helivaguy-
I'm glad the radio setup is working for you! I've made some changes to mine that you may wish to try out, though. For all three throttle curves, I've increased the #2 (mid stick) value to 75%. I did this to make cyclic inputs a little sharper. Also, in the Swash Mix setup screen, I reduced my pitch value to 32% because the higher throttle made the collective a little too lively for my tastes. I'm still just learning, and I really don't need my collective to be that active. Maybe when I get better I'll dial it back up.
See Ya!
