You need to compare power curves for both 601A and 601N etc. Also i dont know what engine is used for 109 C in game. Most 110 C used Db601 engine and some used 601N but what i remember there were jabo version with bomb racks which cut some speed expecially at low alts ( with densy air). 601N had more adventage at high alts over 601A then at lower alts. |

I refer to the C-7 variant, which should be entirely equipped with the 1200 hp DB601N, three/blade propeller, rising the payload from 500 kg to 1000 kg (two 500 kg bombs). Given that the speed / drag relationship is quadratic, and the thrust / speed is *broadly speaking* cubic, I doubt that 9% more power gives only <1% more speed. But I can be wrong ... |

You have to note that from calculated speed graph for different 110 C variants yellow curve is for 601N 30-minut engine power and grey curve is for 601A 5-minut emergency power

Then I notice also that the first graph, taken from the 110 HandBuch, which should be the DB601A at normal boost, shows the same performance for the C-1 of the grey curve in the second graph, which is the DB601A with emergency power. I see another contradiction here of the interpolated curves, don't you think so?

First graph from handbuch show speed at 1.3 Ata power - 5 minutes emergency but with old supercharger ( 4.0 km).
Blue and black line in second graph are for 30 minut power - 1.23 Ata. Grey line in second graph is for 1.3 Ata - 5 minutes emergency power but with new supercharger ( 4.5 km).

Ok thanks! The first graph had no details, so the devil was well hidden ...
