CoD flight test data vs. Real World flight test data

[ACE-OF-ACES]

Just did a quick top speed per altitude (TSPA) test of the CoD Spitfire Mk.IIa

Not sure what the performance of the Mk.IIa 'should be'

But I did a comparison of the CoD Spitfire Mk.IIa to the real world data (RWD) of an Spitfire Mk.I running at both +6lbs and +12lbs

The CoD values match the +6lbs better than the +12lbs

Again, not sure if that is correct..

And there is also a chance that I made a mistake during the CoD test.. What with all the mixture this and that reversed level this and that there is a good chance that I did. And keep in mind that I have not converted the CoD data to std atm yet! That is in the works!

Anyway, not trying to say one way or another how good the CoD FM is for this plane, more just showing how easy you can compare the in-game CoD test data to real world data using my website

Enjoy

There is not much point in comparing the CLOD Mark II to the RWD Mark I imho..

By the way, how do you work out TAS? Is it an IAS conversion from instrument readings or some automated/recorded reading from the sim itself (like iirc was the case in Il2-46)?

As I noted, this test was not done to show how good or bad the CoD MkII FM is as much as to show how easy it is to compare CoD test data to Real World Test data. I am working on uploading more and more real world data as we speak.
