P-11 which was adapted in RL for very short take off at grass AF ( 100m take off distance) in game need all 1 km runway to take off. Also these plane could dive with near 700 km/h - stock have engine overrevive at 450 km/h - which is way to slow.
The reason is just wrong moddeling for fix prop in stock game. It is totaly wrong. Stock fixed prop have too bad acceleration for planes and also overrevive too fast in dive for all planes. Example if you put such prop to Spitfire MK1 early which IRL could reach maximum level speed 560 km/h and far more in dive - in IL2 with such prop plane cant even reach its top speed not mention of dive.

But some good people make it in right way.

I wonder if DT Team couldn't use these great work with P-11C and aslo new Rumunian version P-11F in offical patch?
We are not going to use any 3rd party FM right out of the box. If there are problems with some planes we are open to discussion and if request is accompanied with reliable RL data than there is no reason why not to correct most glaring mistakes.

Changes in 3d model must pass quality check and if things are done correctly they can be accepted. Keep in mind that at least 90% of modded 3d models are not good for some reasons. Models have to be done properly in 3ds max format, various hacks are not acceptable.

All content have to be intellectual property of model maker or he has to have permission form original maker to use his stuff. No stolen textures and models from other sims.

BTW prepare everything you have about Spit MkV, they are first in line for rework, I'll start the thread at UBI later today.
