A stop gap "fix" to the neg G cut out came in March 1941 with the fitting of the famous "Miss Shillings orifice" developed by Miss Tilly Shilling this was superseded by true negative G carbs fitted from 1943 onwards.

It is possible that the devs have made a mistake by putting the "Spitfire IIa" when it should be the "Spitfire Ia" ROTOL? ´Cause I see no performance difference between one and another, except for the best use of prop.
So i believe that the "Spitfire IIa" IS really an Spitfire Ia with rotol with an grammatical mistake.

Here's part of the engine config from the I, Ia and IIa

Spitfire I

PHP Code:

Propulsion          Engine Rolls-Royce MerlinIII Propellor deHavilland 5-20 

Spitfire Ia

PHP Code:

Propulsion          Engine Rolls-Royce MerlinIII Propellor Rotol RMS-

Spitfire IIa

PHP Code:

Propulsion          Engine Rolls-Royce MerlinXII Propellor Rotol RMS-

Looks like it's got the Rotol to me. Whether it's working properly in game is another matter.

I flew in the new vers of the Spit that came with the last patch and what ever the version (flew on Syndicate server) it has ridiculous FM. This thing can loop on it self (and certainly inside the roomy space of my Hurri cockpit) and create E or inverse the gravity field like no other in any Hollywood movies. And I am not referring to the cockpit view that hide nothing to the rear just like some popular Brazilian underwear :rolleyes:

So what ever it is a I, I Rotol or a IIa ... IT'S NOT A SPIT !

:confused: What was it called in the game? AFAIK Syndicate only has Spitfire Marks 1 and 1a available to fly, and these spitfires match well with the 109.

yes if you are looking at the nbr (speed, climb and bla bla bla). But when you start to shake that tail, bank and turn it's industrial ironing vs Moscow Ballets :(

I actually have no idea what any of that means. But I don't have trouble shooting down spitfires online unless it's the MkII variant which outclasses the 109 quite easily in almost every aspect.

As for the MkI and MkIa, the 109 can outclimb them at almost any altitude, and is faster in level flight at high altitudes.
