need a new motor and help choosing it

things to keep in mind as you're reading:
I have a 25A ESC
my batteries are 1300mAH 3S lipos
I am trying to power (but not overpower) a bloody wonder, a versa wing, and a baby blender
I am a beginner-intermediate pilot (maybe a little more intermediate)

Recently, I designed and built my own "challenge plane" that was supposed to look like a flying piece of foam board. Like all first designs, it crashed pretty hard and I broke the motor shaft off. I was originally just going to fix the shaft, so I took the motor apart... and promptly lost the bell. I would replace that too, except I didn't like the motor much anyway...

I was wondering if you would be willing to tell me your very moderate motors on the three planes

If you have a 25A esc, then you want a motor that can handle 25A. Hobbyking will list this in the specs, I don't know about other sites.
As for KV, I would say anything above 1300KV, but nothing too big like 65,000 KV :p
