Adding more hoverblades make a robot slower. This is a reupload of a previous video with the thruster only test included.

The base robot has 8 x T10 thrusters and is not changed in the first four tests, but some struts to mount 12 hoverblades were added for the last test.

Eyeballing the speedo we get:

Thrusters only 250mph, but no control at all
Thrusters with 4 hoverblades, 140mph and steering, but poor roll control
Thrusters with 8 hoverblades in a diamond, 130mph and a nice stable robot.
Thrusters with 16 hoverblades, jumps around 120-125mph

More hoverblades make a robot slower....

My suspicions are still on hoverblades actively braking when the thrusters push them over their speed limit.
