My understanding is that with CEM disabled the sim obviously auto manages prop pitch etc for you, but since it has no way of telling what you're thinking of doing next you can end up flying course pitch when you really need fine pitch / more RPM. Try flying with CEM enabled (it's pretty easy to master and more fun), but leave temperature effects off until you want more immersion. It'll give you better control and remove the problem.
