If this is truly cogging, I would think it was a connection or soldering issue. Since you say they are ok, we'll assume they are. And gearing sounds ok, although 5s on a 2200 kv motor geared with a 16T pinion is gonna be fast.

Might seem to be a PITA, but you could take the MMM from your maxx and try it in the 8ight-e. If it still coggs, put the 8eight-e MMM back in and try the Neu 1515/1y from the maxx. Just trying to isolate the problem component.

Sometimes, a glitchy radio can seem like cogging. Try plugging a servo in the throttle port and see how it acts. Obviously, it should turn smoothly. Even if it does, ESCs tend to be more sensitive than servos. And/or try the radio setup from your maxx.
