Ok, bought a Hobbico NexStar ARF, want to make it electric

Hello, I finally settled on a Hobbico NextStar 68" ARF kit. However, I want to convert it to electric. I need help choosing a motor, speed controller, prop, etc... Does anyone have any suggestions on what I need for this model? I would rather buy a package than individual components, but will buy what is available. So any help would be great....

Thanks so much Richard

Thanks guys... I am starting to understand what I need and pretty much how to go about the conversation.

I'm thinking out runner. Only because it has less moving parts. Gear boxes are kinda like 4 strokes, too many chances to break something. mk (who snapped the shaft on his out runner yesterday)
