Gents, I am the guy who published a well read (and correct article) about the use of PP in IL2. Yes, I know that, thank you, but I just wanted the simplest test possible, and for most situations, the TA does better on auto than manual prop pitch.
And it does not negate my main point,
THE OVERHEAT MODEL IN 4.11 IS MESSED UP, .... BADLY

Then you ought to know that a full-power dive in any plane even with kommandogerat is going to over-rev it and shorten the time to an overheat condition.
It's hardly a "Simple" test because you can't make any reasonable comparisons with a full-power dive and then apex-climb with different aircraft unless you can reproduce the flight path
exactly. Otherwise, it's just "feelings" which are useless in a scientific comparison.
So yes, it completely negates your main point.
The overheat model in 4.11 is fine...what's bad are your flying habits and attitude.
