Can you give the settings for what DT considers Cruise as a basis for futher testing?
I have been using +4 lbs boost and 2650 RPM as the cruise setting based on Spitfire Vb Pilot Notes.
I would be quite happy if I could fly straight at cruise speed, I have no problem with having to use the ailerons to stay straight in other scenarios.

Kind regards

I don't have the knowledge nor the numbers for telling you a complete answer to that Spitfire issue. I tested myself and its seems as Spits start rolling to the right from ~300km/h TAS and above.
On the other side, I don't even know, if the Spits in game even had an aileron trimtab.

Thus I cannot explain, if or how the things, seen in game are connected to historical display. But responsible members of the team are aware of the discussion here.
