Default RE: Landing the GP Christen Eagle

Looking for a little more specific advice on the takeoffs. They scare the devil out of me. My first takeoff was kind of ok, took off a little slow. The next two takeoffs were really, really bad, they came back at me but I was able to get control of them and continue flying. I haven't taken the plane out since. Are you taking off under full power or something less? I am trying to ease in the throttle and keep it straight, but I must be bringing the power up too fast. ??????? Plane flies fine once it is in the air.
