Default TekSumo needs more speed

I don't know anything about electrics... I usually fly gas. I need some of you electric guys to help me out, please! I recently bought a TekSumo and fitted with a Turnigy 2816/6 2200KV, 40 Speed Control, 6x4 APC, with a 2200, 4s 40-60C battery. It flew pretty fast but not fast enough. I changed out the prop for a 7X5 APC and it was a bit faster.


Can anyone tell me what motor I need to go faster. I saw my set up on UTube and it was clocked at 95mph and 95 just doesn't seem very fast in person.


I have a Himax HB 2815 4000. Will this make it faster? What prop? Any other motor recommendations would be appreciated.
