The motors you are planning to use are far to high kv for a winged aeroplane
(Too high, FFS) They have to go very fast to generate power (e.g. 11.1 v x 6500 = 72,000 rpm), you need lower kv with a wider diameter if you are going brushless, so they generate the torque needed to effectively drive some suitably matched props. High kv are for small quadcopters.

I will have to do more research!
and get "more power, make brick fly" out of my head! :)

I think there used to be a quote related to cars
along the lines of "Power sells, torque wins".

As long as the power is expressed as thrust and not as twisting the plane to pieces
'more power, make brick fly' is about right. The way I see it you're dragging a plane shaped brick behind your engines. I'm not sure how useful the flaps could be, especially at slow speeds, hence my preference for thrust vectoring.
