these are my setting

mine for what its worth are
throttle (not so much a curve as a dog leg)
mine  0  75  86.5 96  100
yours 0 20.5 43.0 69.5 100

pitch
mine  29.6  44	  57.5  70.5  82
yours 20.5  55.5  77.0  92.5  100

I think you need to ramp the throttle up a lot quicker and get the head 
speed up to 2000rpm+,  and reduce the pitch, your 1/2 throttle pitch is 
nearly what mine is at full ,but I only hover and do gentle circuits

I seem to remember reading that brushless motors are lot more efficient 
at higher RPM's
