Your flying the Hurricane right? ok,my guess is your stalling,on take off,don't climb too quickly,allow your RPM and speed to build up before making any manouvres,up or sideways.

You need your speed on take off to reach at least 90mph before leaving the ground,and as you do,don't climb too fast,build up your speed in a gradual controlled manner so that you don't bleed off the energy you have just gained.

Actually,with all respect to the others,I do take off with flaps down,but only about two stages down on the marker,just before the '20' mark(see flaps marker gauge on right hand side of cockpit,same area as landing gear lever).

A little bit of flaps will give the aircraft lift on take off,and you won't need so much of the runway to take off from.

But energy is king here,it's your speed that's letting you down for sure,I'm convinced.
