It is not necessary to reduce power at the end of ”OVERSPEED”
test ; torque will be about 40 % before brake release. For a normal
takeoff, maximum torque (100 %) will be applied after brake
release. On short runway, maximum torque will be applied before
brake release.

At sequence end, check : All warning lights OFF
In practice, if preconized attitude is kept, there is no difficulty to
maintain a speed < 128 KIAS until landing gear retraction is
completed.
