I'll try to remember to make a track tomorrow (it's a bit late currently) and upload it, it would be good practice for me too and maybe i'll pick up an extra trick or two during the process. Cheers
Gonna be interesting to see what you can come up with. After some messing around in the good ol' 109. 480-ish is the absolute max I could squeeze out of her and hold on the deck.

One thing I that may cause issues for people is controling prop pitch by buttons on your joystick rather than using an extra axis-controler. Fine adjustments are almost impossible to achieve with buttons.
