If not I would highly recommend that you do, because based on my experience most of the 'errors' people argue about are pilot errors during the test flight, not FM errors.
And the only way to be sure of that is to log said data in real time during the entire test flight, because something as simple as not holding a steady altitude during flight can have a big impact on the speed values.

Hi. The conditions were ideal for the game, so we get the best results - this can only get worse if there was disturbing circumstance. That was the maximum speed that I could reach.
I had same settings during all tests.
Realism settings: full real. Weapons, fuel, weathering was default (can't change anyway).
Quick mission: Bomber Intercept Low, without enemies. Altitude: 0-50m over the Channel, time: 12:00, i dont know the wind. All speed IAS.
I slowed down the aircrafts at the start, then full gas. Trim tab set to level flight (without ascent/descent of course), the radiators was open as needed, and no WEP. Variable Prop Pitch set to max constant speed (had to experiment with this, but the results are all maximum, constant speed).
Are you tested them? You have different values?
