I'm no VTOL expert, but there are generally three ways they work. They have seperate engines that provide vertical lift, they rotate the engines, or they have nozzle that direct the vector of the thrust. Regardless you aren't going to instantaneously go horizontal and no vertical. They probably start to climb while they move forward until they have enough lift to only have horizontal thrust. That make sense?
