    I think you're absolutely right because the connectors were the original on the engine of Fastech and I have had to change because they had also melted! apart from the deans of origins of the ul-1 as I will change by precaution by 5.5 mm connectors, do you think I'm changing the engine? (even if you tell me that everything is ok in regards to this boat)
    Not sure I fully understand this part, but I will give a try to what I think your asking. Yes I think you should change the connectors on the motor. I change EVERY PLUG on the motor and esc's to 5.5mm not just the power plugs on the esc the 3 motor / esc connectors as well get changed. Do I think you should change the motor itself no, the stock motor is awesome. Besides the the change of plugs over to bullets connectors and changing the prop everything else should remain stock. JMO, that goes for the ul1 and the fastech.

        With that propeller make sure you sharpen and balance it. Even though the box says they some close, they still require attention. Failing to do so can result in damage to drive system. You are also going to want to adjust the strut depth to a little over 1 inch in depth. With that prop the boat maybe slow to plane and it may submarine more then the stock prop does, but once on plane hold one cause it's a rocket. Another tip for the ul1 is the move the steering rod up a few holes on the servo arm, this will allow for tighter turning. You can few my video by clicking the link in my signature. Note that the video is with a different motor.

              I bet a m445 on your BJ motor would run really nice. What I do is I have a range of the CF props from CF40 all the way to the CF48, I find a diameter I like and get a metal prop in the diameter. I would try a CF45 if I was you on the BJ. JMO of course, run for a few minutes then check temps.

                I believe you have the right idea, get cheep props till you find the right ones then go metal,
                but,but,but sharpening, balancing, detounging ,cupping ect is soooo much fun
