As long as you do that, you can easily check if the setting of the radiator flaps has any influence on airspeed. Takes 5 minutes for each plane. You can use that wonder-woman view to make it easier.
Yes, but if you don't log the data and post it, no one is going to know if you did it right or not. The plane needs to be perfectly level and no acceleration/deceleration going on when you begin the test. The slightest pitch up or down can make the plane accelerate/decelerate and screw up your reading. It would be nice if they had a test map and level stabilizer functionality available for testing the flight models. Anyway, I won't be doing this. I don't play CLoD. Maybe someday or maybe not if it is already selling for 12 bucks and this whole board becomes moot.
