Something isn't right. Before I got hardened pinions, I ran a plastic spur (Kyosho 46T) and never had any issues on my Hyper 8 (1512/2d on 4s). Assuming the pitch is right (and it would be very obvious if you tried using a Mod1 spur with a 32p pinion or whatever), I would look at the motor mount and check for possible flexing. You have a decent close-up pic of your setup - particularly the mounting scheme?
