It is probably down to being more used to working with one and then changing to the other as both are totally different as far as the drive goes so each will have a different feel when using them.
I haven't used the give on my HyperV2 for quite a while, I now run it at the hardest setting and it works fine for lining, colour and shade but did find it made a difference when I did.
Not had a really good go on my Dragonfly as my apprentice has taken it over and am more than happy with the V2 so can't comment on the difference in give
