How you fly the planes can take away 5%-10% of speed easily. A little slip, a little nose-high, poor trim, tiny stick movements you or I wouldn't notice all add up.
Even small flutter from stick A/D can take a couple % off but as Oleg noted in 2002, what often seems smooth -ain't- and can be shown with devicelink logs.
Slip, trim and pitch, you gotta do yourself but you can get flutter out by adding FILTER on the stick sensitivity screen.
