When diving, reduce power and prop-pitch. You don't need 100% prop pitch all the time in combat either. A coarse pitch will actually get you a higher top speed, although with slower acceleration. Fine pitch (100%) is used for climbing or quick acceleration.

With these tips you should be fine. Of course, open the radiator if you must, but it will degrade performance.
Yes,ma frend thank u,but when im on 50% my scuad is already far away. Im talking not about dogfight. I mean the long range travels to the target,like the Pearl Harbour attack I have to fly over 200 miles
