There a couple details which I believe greatly affect the motor-ESC-batteries performance.
1) Thrust bearing. Reduces load from motor bearings and endbell. This bearing must be placed against the motor casing or the motor mount? In case the motor mount hole diameter is bigger than the thrust bearing then the only solution is that it is fitted next to the motor casing, is that ok?
2) Distance of drive dog from end of stringer for flexshaft. In the past I heard that it should be same as the shaft diameter, but now I see that it gets smaller (1-1.5mm). I also use a teflon washer. How much should that distance be?
I think that if these two items are correct then motor can run cooler hence less heat-amps, better performance. If anyone has experience on these, it would be great to share!
