Less Throw. Find out what point its going to snap. Fly it with very low rates the first time.

I would go by the manual, Just set it up for low rates and just feel it in the air. dont get crazy with it untill youve got some altitude to recover. If it dosnt snap, flip your high rates on and test it again...
