Default Plane fears

Anyone out there had a plane they could fly. It flies very well and you've had no issues taking off or landing. It's not scary once its in the air but since you've only flown it a few times firing up the engine sends terror through your body?

I have an H9 Mustang with a Saito 100 on it. I've flown it, had no problems whatsoever with the take off, flight and landing. Both of my past instructors have been very helpful with setting up and there have been no objections to me being ready to fly it - if anything right now they are aggitated I'm scared of it. Once I'm in the middle of the take off I'm fine. Once I'm in the air I'm fine. When its time to land I'm perfectly ok with it...but carrying the plane to the stand to start it up sends my heart racing like I'm about to give a presentation in front of 5000 people.

Just wondering if I'm alone in this area.
