    You indicate that you are using 5S (18.5v) batts in series which makes them a 10S power system with a 4350mAh current capacity.
    It could be that the ESC is not capable of 10S operation

      Castle still makes 12S rated ESCs. Not the older versions which were less expensive. I have 2 big EDFs with the ICE 100 12S. The newer versions are VERY expensive. I have 2 of the Castle Phoenix Edge 120 HV.

      I have a couple of Turnigy Super Brain 100 amp 12S rated that have been working well for years. But I have not pushed them past 8S 90 amps. That might be the way to go They are still physically bigger than the old ICE 100 12S rated.
