easy circumvention is to just gently increase the power each time. don't slam it to full throttle
Think I read somewhere that aircraft engines generally do not like abrupt power changes too much, e.g., compared to most car engines. In any case, since then 1-2 seconds is the minimum time I take for going from idle to full power or v/v.
