I noticed yesterday that my Tambor dives better when lying still (0 kts) then when under speed. This seems strange to me, since when diving under speed uses the diveplanes, where as diving at zero speed only utilizes the ballasttanks.

Did a timing with my tambor (calm weather) from surface to PD:
speed = 0kts: 25 seconds
speed = 9 kts: 38 seconds

Shouldn't this at least be the other way around?
