Another interesting test to perform with the Spits is maximum speed in a dive.

It's difficult to get over 400mph, even from 15,000ft in a vertical dive, and if you force it to 420mph, your ailerons and rudder fall off. This is in the Ia and IIa, the MkI seems more resilient, but still no more speed IIRC.

Although any speed trial is difficult at the moment with the over-sensitive/non-functioning throttle control.

I have noted the same during my roll rate tests with the Mk II, its very hard to reach 400 mph. This was before the beta patch.
