Default 3 point woes

Hi Guys,

I understand the curve concepts and setup, but here's what I'm facing. Seems like no matter what I do with my curves, I get to this point; lift off and sets in ground effect, up one notch on the throtle, gets me 2-3' off the deck, up one more notch and then it's a steady climb and keeps going unless I back off. Ive tried more RPM, less RPM, more pitch, less pitch, but the results stay pretty much the same. Is this indicitive of the 3 pt curve? Anyone else suffered through this and what did you do? Hard to concentrate on coordinated turns, nose in hovering etc while I can't maintain a steady altitude without constant throtle adjustments. []
