I read that the 4 poles like low timing versus high timing. 15 deg is quite a bit and didn't think of that. I just set both controllers to 15 deg since the HW was already set to that.

It actually depends on who you ask. I've heard many things like, "Our ESC switchs automacally to higher timing will gain more speed and power". I like the fact that some companies offer a simple answer. I go with 0 to 5 (Low) for 2 pole, 5 to 10 (Mid) for 4 pole, 10-15 (High) for 6 pole and outrunners likes 15 and more depending on the pole. One thing I do know is that D wound motors likes lower timing. I have yet to see any speed benefits from higher timing. I have seen heat from higher timing, but no other benefit as some say you can gain power from a higher timing. But what works for me will not always work for somebody else.
