But this is not recommended, because drop all the energy very fast, and the trimm wheel moving slow (I mean, compare to Il-2. I have no problem the trimm's or Flap's speed in Clod  ). If the enemy shaking the stick, you can't follow
I can not help with RAF types, I have only pilot's manual (no technical info, only aircraft handling and performance)

I had asked if 109 drivers were using trim to gain more lead and if so was this accurate to RL. From reading the thread I think there are 2 potential issues:
1. That presently the 109 does not require trim to be pulled out of a high speed dive. In RL trim would have to be set prior to the dive in order to pull out.
2. The trim wheel in game moves too quickly compared to how a RL pilot could make adjustments (there are answers and videos in the thread). Some O/L pilots are using this to gain lead quickly, which is unrealistic.
I suggested that a 109 expert validate the information gathered in order to make the 109 more accurate via the bugtracker.
I do not know if the same problem occurs in RAF fighters however I suspect this would not be required given that they already have the turn advantage.
Does that make sense? ~S~
