Hardly an issue. But advancing the throttle as desired will stretch that take off for a very nice, scale take-off every time.
My personal favorite is a smooth, realistic takeoff in most cases.
Yes, I've seen many people get in trouble flying a scale balsa plane because they are so use to flying a grossly overpowered foamy that they can just leap into the sky with.
