Is your motor going into a gearbox? What is the grey item directly behind the motor?

I think that you are referring to my crud catcher/ GPS mount in the pic below.

Here is a video from 3 weeks ago when I was testing some different props. I have since gotten rid of the prop walk issues.

Have you tried the ABC H-10? The factory H-10 diameter is 44.06 and has more pitch than the m445. My Raptor rigger has reached speeds of 58mph using the plain H-10 and 64mph using plain S-15.

Raptor was noticeably slower using the m445

I might have to try one. Although, I'm not sure that I can spare anymore mAhs on a more agressive prop. I'm consuming between 3000 and 3400mAh now, with low voltage reaching 13.5v... even with my Thunder Power 5000mAh 45c packs.

The other whiplash racer in my heats was running a slightly more aggressive prop and experienced a ESC thermal shutdown in the 3rd heat.
