Are you using the TRP panel to reduce thrust limit after take off? Generally I start reducing from MAX as soon as gear is up, further red...

Extract from the flight manual of the cirrus aircraft (I know that one isn't a cirrus)
The emergency parachute should only be used for total and irrecoverable loss of control of the aircraft.
Engine failure is definitely not a just reason for its use.

You cannot get fined simply for taking one hand off the steering wheel. Simples.
