Thanks for the reply Casper.

I am unable to get into any state where the aircraft rolls to the left without control input.

There appears to be no regime that causes the aircraft to fly without rolling to the right.

I have tried a range of speeds and power settings as well as 3 different sticks

Can you give the settings for what DT considers Cruise as a basis for futher testing?

I have been using +4 lbs boost and 2650 RPM as the cruise setting based on Spitfire Vb Pilot Notes.

I would be quite happy if I could fly straight at cruise speed, I have no problem with having to use the ailerons to stay straight in other scenarios.

Kind regards
