Default Dialing in a new profile

I was just wondering what some of the Bros do with a new plane to get it "sweet". I had my last Extreme 330 pretty much there after flying it off and on for a while, but I don't really know how it got there. I just put a new one together to have something to fly this weekend (great weather, maybe the last great weekend of the year) and it's flying about like my last one did six or seven months ago.

I guess I'm wondering if folks have a step by step procedure they follow with a new plane. I know mine's a bit nose heavy and it needs a little weight on the left wingtip; I'll work on those, but what comes next? I've seen a bunch of pattern trimming charts... Are they applicable to profile planes and the type of flying we're doing? OR is there a better way?

I figured this would be the best place to learn about this, and I'm sure I'm not the only Bro who could use some education on the subject...
