Default Need Engine Break-In Suggestions

I have a brand new ASP FS61AR (ringed) 4-stroke and would like to know the best way to break it in.

What little the "owners manual" says is that it basically only needs a brief bench run and that the low speed needle valve is factory set but may need minor adjustments.

I have closed the main NV and opened it 1-1/2 turns (as per instructions) and have run about 3/4 of a tank (10oz) thru it varying the throttle to simulate flying (if that makes sense).

I am turning and APC 11x7 and just want to make sure that I am doing this right. If any of you engine experts have some words of wisdon to share, I would really apprecaite it.

Thanks,
