What am I doing wrong? 2-stage prop spitfires.

Now the Ia with its 2 stage prop should actually have a pretty similar top speed in the course pitch setting I would think, but I struggle to get it to 250 mph, normally no more than 240!

now I know some people have been claiming some of the flight characteristics are a little off but is there really a 60 mph difference between these 2 planes? If not what on Earth am I missing?

I get the same top speed as you (240ish) in the Ia and Hurricane.

I do not relish flying the 2 stage prop pitch at all.
