Default Pletenburg 30-10 setup numbers?

I have a Plettinburg 30-10 motor in my newest (used) Envision pattern ship, Jason flew in the 2012 NATs, and I'm using a Jeti 77 opto spin controller, instead of the Castle HV-85 That came with it ( don't like having to carry my laptop around to program), and curious to what these motors prefer for their settings? I didn't get the motors paperwork.
Right now I'm set for 8 degrees for timing and default for all other settings, and yet to mess with a brake. I am getting a slight bark from the motor from a slow startup, but other than that, all seems good, cool and working well. My timing adjustments on my Jeti jump from 8 to 12 degrees from how I'm reading it, and several of my buds are using 12 degrees on similar El motors.
Just curious as to what folks are running on their settings, and why ?
Certainly a change from running a YS 170, but sure not using rags for cleanup, he he he
Thanks,
