I'm assuming Complex Engine Managenment is on.
You shouldn't run the RPM at max all the time and the max rated RPM for the Merlin is around 3,000. 3,500 is far too high.

Take off on max but immediately climb is established reduce RPM to around 2600 (actully you can get away with as much as 2800). Also do not run boost at +6 for too long - there are full figures elsewhere but these should get you sorted. I usually reduce to around 4.7 max for climbout.

I should have mentioned that CEM was not on.
