All the way down. Throttle and throttle trim need to be down or the ESC will not arm the motor. Remember to set the failsafe so you don't have a runaway and always power the transmitter on first and the ESC last on power-up and the ESC first and transmitter last when powering down.

nuther stupid ?, should throttle trim be left all the way down, all the time, when i'm gonna fly?

That's the way I do it.  You can use end-point adjustment to get the most out.  But the good news is that even if you're not 100% thrust you gel longer flight times.

Unless you are after a scale apperance and want to mimic a gas/glow engine at idle there is no need to set the throttle trim. I've never seen anyone do it.
