Get familiar with performance charts in RFM - usually quite conservative.
Departing from IGE:
select a flight path that will clear tallest obstacle by 10 feet,
select last safe hover point inside pad,
select abort point that will allow safe return to this point,
commence normal IGE departure (overarcing OK initially),
IF:
you can't maintain flight path OR not accelerating OR an engine limit is reached ABORT.

Departing OGE:
select lateral and for/aft markers to ensure climb is vertical,
last safe hover point is directly below helo,
abort point is anywhere above this.
IF:
you stop climbing vertically OR you reach an engine limit ABORT.
Level with top of obstacles you should have ROC>200fpm, some power in hand - if so continue departure (caution having adverse wind as you pop out).
I can't imagine many civvie ops where you would resort to overtorque/overtemp/bleed - as they say PPPPPP.
