Count your rotate speed. Our books say 5 sec for a normal rotate, 3* per second. After 5 years flying the Bus I still find myself counting as a check on my rotation rate.

Have you been shown the demo where you ignore tracking and just rotate and let go? The plane will look after itself pretty well, not perfect but it won’t crash.

The rotate forces are a bit weird. Often people under rotate. The forces will feel funny so you might have to change the pressure as you are trying to find the attitude.

If you can just get SOME correct rudder in, an attitude of SOMEWHERE around 10*, TRIM for a count of ten then get the AP in you’ll be pretty safe.

Try not to get too stressed, it will come.
