As you probably already know, you get several choices.
Highest (20)
High (15)
Normal (10*)
Low (5)
Lowest (0) Best for Bashing it says.
Normal is what it auto detected for me and my setup. MMM 4s (two 2s in Series) a Tekno 1515 1Y. I thought there was 0 degrees of timing on these brushless motors. Or am I getting my terms confused here?
I'd really like some opinions on these issues.
I know what the search button is for, too.

Try setting "timing" a little lower, and set "punch control" a little lower.
I agree with you on the connectors -- we ship those big 6.5mm connectors because that much current needs a big connector. Some of our 1515/1Y setups draw as much as 125A continuous at full speed.
You can also try gearing down, current draw is directly related to gear ratio -- so if you want tot try limiting current, the easiest way is by changing gear ratio.
