First patrol in a IXD2, and I noticed something amis.

As a regular IXB driver I've noted that the accend/decend rate, at 90 RPM (a hair under 2 knots), is 3 meters per minute.
This IXD2 has an accend/decend rate of over 5 meters per minute at the same RPMs and speeed.

Anybody have an idé of how I can correct this for future patrols?

IXB: From 50 meters to 20 meters takes 10 minutes.
IXD2: From 50 meters to 12 meters in 7 minutes?!
VIIB: Slightly faster than the IXB, but nothing near as fast as the IXD2.
