Agile: Your wings helps you balance, you gain proficency in acrobatics.

Why not just design your lv1-4 adventures/encounters in such a way that an at-will flying character would also be challenged to start with? Afterall, you'll have to do that really soon anyways. A bit of practice surely couldn't hurt.
