The good news for the devs ought to be that having a number of tests with different weights and engine outputs, but the same airframe ought to make the fms more accurate.

When in steady state flight like a speed test, the drag cancels the thrust and the lift cancels the weight. Obvious I know, but it makes it hard for the devs to know which bits are right, or whether errors are canceling.

If they match all the tests, they know they have a good model.

Sadly, I don't reckon this will happen in the next patch. Ilya mentioned something about FUTURE fm development as if the staff had left or were working on other things.

@Grathos - as Talisman says, we want accurate fms, not improvements for one side, and- yes- the 109s are too slow.
