Yes, the glow prop.  Or, you could add another 4S pack to make a 12S.  You'd be over current on the ground, but you'd have lots of speed in the air.

That's a 40 amp motor, so the only way to get more power without cooking it is to up the volts.  With the Kv of 300 it's "geared" for a 13 or 14 inch prop.  I use a 250 Kv motor for 16 inch, on my biggest planes.

Are you in need of more thrust or more speed?  If both, you'll need a bigger motor.
