Yes i noticed that problem, with that FDM the power after take off (i tested it on a low altitude KSFO) at 2 deg pitch must not be less than 80% of rpm and must be less than 300 kts. Only full throttle and from 15 to 20 deg pitch gives the right power to get altitude, 10000 ft and more. I don't mean that is right, i only mean we have a lot of work to do before to get the right FDM.
