Are you sure about this Camber?

Edit: Test conducted with Spit Ia100oct, prop as near to feathered as possible.

Nice test Dutch, I remembered how much like I liked CoD watching Spitfires plummeting toward the green leafy fields of England.

For the last couple of patches, I found that rad position had slight effects on level speeds but only a few mph at best. I was rounding to nearest 5mph, so often the rad effect rounded out. I didn't try canopy this patch but the previous one couldn't detect anything.

From your test it looks like that rad has much more of an effect on accelleration between speeds, which is an interesting finding.
