Unexpected temperature control

OK, my spatchcock is in process.  This is the first time I have gone raised direct for an extended time, no BBQ guru.

I did not expect my top and bottom openings to be the same as raised indirect for the same openings.  I expected the direct to be hotter, so I started with my airflow pinched down more than my raised indirect cooks w/o the guru.  I had to open up the air-flow to get her up to temp to throw the meat on.
