Measured pitch with the rows properly pinned, against this craft's own disc caps
(AV_PitchPlus_Min 150, AV_PitchPlus_Max 70):
min speed (LT) 1391.0 deg / 8.00 s, clock x1.326 -> 131.1 deg/game-s vs 150
max speed (RT) 989.0 deg / 8.05 s, clock x1.318 -> 93.2 deg/game-s vs 70
A rate 33% ABOVE a cap is not a finding, it is a broken instrument. The HUD speed
is in the same bracketing screenshots that give the clock, so read it:
slow phase 102 -> 18
fast phase 1193 -> 589
The speed is NOT constant during the dwell -- pitching halves it in 8 seconds.
The cap is speed-dependent, so as the craft slowed its cap rose, and an 8-second
average necessarily lands between the max-speed cap and a mid-speed one. The 133%
is entirely the instrument.
This also weakens the roll result committed earlier: same method, so 120.9 vs
AV_Roll_Max 125 is CONSISTENT but is not a tight test -- the true cap could be
lower and still produce that average. Said plainly in the doc rather than left
standing as a clean confirmation. Min-speed figures are less affected; there is
little speed left to lose.
Proper fix, not yet done: dwell ~1-2 s so speed barely moves, or sample HUD speed
continuously and fit rate against INSTANTANEOUS speed -- which yields the whole
rate-vs-speed curve instead of two points.
Separately this is a flight-model finding: TURNING COSTS SPEED, steeply, with the
throttle still at maximum. A reimplementation treating the throttle as a speed the
craft simply holds will be wrong during manoeuvres.
