Demo P-51 and Spitfire Top Speed

[Marchochias]

Hey, excellent demo, extremely impressive visuals, sound and flight characteristics on Simulation mode.

That said, does anyone else find the top speed on Simulation mode a bit odd? I'm going 100% throttle, even with WEP (which seems to make no difference on Simulation), and the Spitfire and P-51 both struggle to go faster than 250 mph on the level, accelerating extremely slowly if at all.

Does anyone else have this problem? Is there something I'm missing with the throttle controls?

Also, does anyone know how the trim works? I know "A" controls trim in Sim mode, but I can't tell which way it is actually changing the trim.

Does anyone use the Saitek flight stick on the 360? How is it? I'm thinking about purchasing one (Ace Edge is too expensive and not available in stores in my area), but I'm not sure how the controls would be mapped.

If someone who has it could explain how the controls are mapped to it, that would be excellent.
