Speed calc says you are geared for 70+mph and 50k RPM on the motor. I'd say that's overgeared and too much voltage for the motor. Even with lower gearing Castle recommends 4S max on the 2650kv. The 1800kv 1512 is much better suited for 5-6S.

5s is okay, the castle 15xx series of motors don't mind 50k rpms. Definitely get a smaller pinion, aim for a top speed of around 50mph.
