You may need to run the smallest bronze prop Octura makes!!Hi rpm usually needs small props whereas low kv can turn larger props..
Im running a Mega 3 turn- 3000kv- with a TP 1350 3 cell turning a small 2 blade Octura prop, around 1" dia. I forget exactly maybe a 1427.

Does the smaller prop help with torque roll?
I have a Mini V with a 3100kv motor on 3 cells with the stock prop. torque roll is massive at anything over half throttle.
