I have no experience with that particular plane, so this answer is just in case no one who does jumps in.

Flaps allow you to fly more slowly without stalling. If your radio allows it, less lowering for takeoff and more for landing is the norm. Maybe 10 and 20 degrees to start. Unless you are planning on doing very unusual maneuvers, there is no reason to have your flaps go up. Nor is there much of a case for flaperons, especially as you already have flaps.
