First up, excellent plane choice to learn with, they are very sweet flyers!
I wouldn't recommend either battery you picked! One of the ones is for RC cars and the other is a bit over the top price wise and you would never need its full potential.
I would recommend this battery: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... oduct=9500. For that price you can buy 2 and still come out ahead!
Decently priced Spektrum receivers are a bit tough to find at the moment as HobbyKing aren't stocking them for the moment. You'll have to either buy local or order from the US (A bit cheaper if you're going to order more than one, Maybe we could ask around and see who else needs receivers at the moment and do a group buy). As for what to get, I'd say get a AR6110 Park Receiver and put it in your cub and move the AR7000 over to your Apprentice.
As for the prop, the stock prop on your model is either an 8x5 or 8x6. This would be the closest match: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... duct=10054 Or you could try Kelletts at Liverpool, they have a stock of ST spare parts and could be worth a shot at getting an origianl.
