Perhaps next time you try it you could watch the oil and water temps carefully and record any excessive temps that occur during the climb. A recorded track would be even better.

I really think the real aircraft handles its nominal climb boost and revs up to the top, that is 2850 rpm 6 1/4 boost up to 30'000 ft, and we're still far from that.

Should be cross checked, but in my mind, it should handle that.

But I really think that's side effects from inadvertant engine and flight model changes. They are not documented anywhere that I know and one has to try to see what is working and what is not.
I used to read the historical manual, but what you find does'nt essentially apply to CoD.
