Now the Ia with its 2 stage prop should actually have a pretty similar top speed in the course pitch setting I would think, but I struggle to get it to 250 mph, normally no more than 240!
now I know some people have been claiming some of the flight characteristics are a little off but is there really a 60 mph difference between these 2 planes? If not what on Earth am I missing?
Edit: Looking up stats it looks like the 2 aircraft should have nearly identical top speeds, though the speeds I have found are at 17000 ft, and I am testing at about 4000 ft. Can the prop make that big a difference between low and high altitude? i.e., would the difference disappear at higher altitude?

Yes there is that much difference between the 1a and II in game... the 1a FM is porked
