Do you guys feel it really hard to rotate when taking off?

Chances are you are rotating early.  Calculate your rotation speed prior to take-off, and start easing back at that point.  I have a performance calculator spreadsheet, but for rough figures use this:

Depends on the weight. If fully loaded, its quite hard to make it fly. I always start with afterburnets (just some times for the test sake and clean, without it). Speed up to 170-190 knots then slowly start to pull the stick back until the front end of the plane wil starts to pull up. And hold the stick there until all wheels are off the ground, then keep the nose up between 5-10deg. Don't forget to gear-up at that moment (or before reaching 300 knots). When you reach 300 knots, then go out of afterburners.
