If you set the throws to the max in the manual as suggested then set rates to about 60% and some expo again as suggested that is a good starting point for the first flight.

I would always go with high rates on the first flight in case something is badly out of trim. If you are your own test pilot then it is a good idea to have someone standing with who knows which is the rate[s] switch[es] and which direction they go. You might be too busy to do it yourself. Ask me how I know this.
