Perhaps you do need to trim your elevator, the Spitfires and Hurricanes go out of trim in a second in both the Elevator and Rudder.
And while the historical 109's do not have rudder trim, this did not mean the historical aircraft did not need application of rudder to be in trim. The set trim tabs in the 109 only guaranteed in trim at approx. 320 kph, at low speeds, and speeds over 400 kph, the pilot continually was required to apply more and more left rudder, to the point it became very difficult to roll left at high speeds
In my experience, this does not seem to be the case in CoD, the ball may not be centered, but the aircraft does not seem to yaw or show a tendency to roll as the Spitfires and Hurricanes do without trim, and rolling left at high speeds is not a problem.
