For take off it is suggested to;
- turn off wing swing
- activate re heat (note that deactivating re heat requires throttling back to idle before deactivating AG5)
- 1/4 flap
- trim nose up 1/6
- throttle up full and hang on to your ass.

Once airborne, activate AG8. Wing angle is tied to throttle position. Note that the variable position inlet cone is also tied to AG8 and throttle position.
