How many cells in the battery pack?
What wingspan and area are you planning on using?
What flying speed are you looking for - a slow floaty thermal soarer, or a hot-ship?
A 3300 is a big battery for a glider. That means heavy, which is just the opposite of what you want - lightness!
Will a 9 x 4 folder, at 1500Kv suit a 40 amp esc - You need to check with a Wattmeter, to see what current is being drawn. Guesstimating doesn't work with electric power.
Don't forget that - in the UK - we are limited to a maximum altitude of 400 feet above the ground we are standing on. Most of my models - gliders and aerobats, will be at that height within five seconds from launch - and they are not overpowered racers! (except the Excalibur Vee-tail!)
if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Modern phones take pictures using a large number of pixels. This is so you can zoom into a small part without loosing too much definition.
The problem is many web sites have a picture Mb limit.
I use a picture edit software that allows me to reduce the number of pixels a picture uses. As I have several thousand "plane" pictures it also limits the disc storage on my PC!
