Make sure you set flaps to 5 degrees but most importantly set elevator trim to the T/O setting or you'll never get off the ground.

If none of the above works, try checking your joystick calibration. I have had similar probs with various aircraft and more often than not unpluging my joystick, waiting a few moments and pluging it back in can sort it out.
