One thing to do is make sure you're running the 4dot insert for lowest motor timing. Also make sure that any shims on the rotor are at the pinion end to get the rotor as close as possible to the sensor. Finally, search on RCtech to see what firmware people recommend for your ESC with the X12 motor.
I am running the 4dot insert, thanks Dale I'll check rctech later and buy the USB bridge.
